ABSTRACT
There is a significant increase in research on Organizational Commitment (OC) and this interest is driven in large part because it is recognized the impact OC has not only for determining employees’ permanence but also because committed employees contribute to achieving organizational goals and lead to higher levels of efficiency. In the health field, the OC, as a theoretical construct and empirical variable has been little studied and their work have been based on models with different approaches, trying to determine existing relationships before precisely defining its nature for health professionals. In our country, is a subject that has only recently begun to generate some interest in social psychology researchers, organizations and administration, as a group to which no attention has been given from the research perspective. This review aims to give a general overview of the study of this construct in health care professionals and proposes alternatives for their measurement with emphasis on variables related to psychological health of health professionals which have not been consistently described, such as; Personal Variables (type of profession, resisting personality), psychosocial risks at work (compassion fatigue, work-family conflict and psychological harassment) and organizational factors (psychological contract, perceived support, job satisfaction) in the maintenance of OC and permanence of employees in the organization.
