Keywords:

Organizational culture is one of the key factors influencing employees’ attitudes and behaviors within an organization, including the enhancement of organizational commitment. As the number of Generation Z individuals entering the workforce continues to increase, organizations are required to understand the characteristics of this generation in order to create a work environment that fosters employee engagement and commitment. This study aims to analyze the role of organizational culture in shaping organizational commitment among Generation Z in the workplace. This study adopts a qualitative approach using a literature study method. Data collection was conducted through documentation of various written sources, such as scientific journals, books, and other relevant documents aligned with the research topic. The collected data were then analyzed using a descriptive qualitative analysis method to understand the relationship between organizational culture and organizational commitment among Generation Z. The findings indicate that a positive organizational culture, characterized by open communication, teamwork, and leadership support, can enhance employees’ emotional attachment and loyalty to the organization. Furthermore, Generation Z tends to be more attracted to organizations that offer flexible and inclusive work cultures, as well as opportunities for growth and innovation. Therefore, implementing an organizational culture that adapts to the characteristics of Generation Z is a crucial strategy for organizations to enhance employee commitment and support long-term sustainability.
