Summary/Abstract: The main purpose of this study is to examine whether the mobbing has an impact on the organizational commitment of employees formed in recreation businesses serving recreational and catering purposes. Employees that are exposed to mobbing lose their performance over time, their loyal commitment decreases, and there is intent to leave their job. Employees can be separated from the work in case of intimidation. It is therefore important to examine the mobbing and the problems caused by the negative consequences in the organizations. The research constitutes employees in Bingöl who are engaged in entertainment and recreational activities. Questionnaire was used as data collection tool in the research. As a result of the analysis of the data, there was a significant relationship between mobbing and three components of organizational commitment: emotional commitment, normative commitment and continuity commitment. The mobbing to their quality of life and occupational status at workplaces reduces the emotional attachment of employees; the one to their reputation reduces ongoing commitment, and the one to their self and communication reduces normative loyalties.
