Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to examine the effect of stress on organisational commitment of schoolteachers during the pandemic period, and the mediation role of employee voice and moderation role of perceived organisation support were also investigated. The data was collected from 360 schoolteachers and SEM technique was used to test the relationships. The results showed that stress suffered by schoolteachers was negatively associated with organisational commitment. Furthermore, employee voice mediates this negative relationship, and the presence of perceived organisational support plays a moderating role between stress caused by COVID-19 and employee voice. Thus, we concluded that employee voice and perceived organisational support played a crucial role in reducing the negative effect of stress caused due to COVID-19 on organisational commitment.
