Kulturní podmíněnost organizačního závazku a její vliv na dobrovolnou přesčasovou práci. Komparativní studie českých a japonských zaměstnanců

This bachelor's thesis focuses on a cross-cultural comparison of Czech and Japanese employees in the context of the influence of cultural identity on organizational commitment and its impact on overtime work. The aim of this thesis is to analyse and compare how individual components of organizational commitment affect work behaviour, perceptions of social exchange, and interpretations of overtime-related phenomena. The theoretical part defines the main conceptual framework, incorporating Meyer and Allen’s organizational commitment theory, social exchange theory, and cultural dimension models established by Hofstede and the GLOBE Project. The empirical part is based on qualitative research conducted through semi-structured interviews, with data subsequently analysed using thematic analysis. In conclusion, the thesis presents recommendations based on the empirical findings.
