Integrating Dual Commitment into Commitment Profiles: a large study among temporary workers
Purpose: Despite the ever increasing phenomenon of contingent work, few studies investigated the specific features of temporary work, such as the dual employment relationship that temporary workers develop with the agency and the client organization (Liden, et al., 2003), namely dual commitment (McClurg, 1999). Recently the configural approach has been adopted to study the multidimensional nature of commitment (Sinclair et al. 2005, Dello Russo et al., 2013) to distinguish different profiles based on the combination of continuance and affective commitment.
