Summary/Abstract: Organizational commitment is the construct to describe an employee’s relations with a workplace, diversified motives and attitudes of an individual toward an organization. In the study, the theoretical proposal by J. Meyer and N. Allen – the 3-factor model of organizational commitment, was applied. Analyses were conducted so as to recognize organizational commitment (affective, normative, and a continuance one) in varied age groups. Participants included professionally active persons, representatives of both genders and different age groups. In the study, the Organizational Commitment Scale was used. A practical significance of the obtained results is displayed, among others, in realization of the age management idea, especially on account of aging population of employees.
