ABSTRACT
This study examined the influence of Perceived Organizational Support on work behaviors of employees in University of Uyo. To achieve this, survey research design was adopted for the study. Data were collected from both primary and secondary sources. Secondary source was from published articles and textbooks while primary source was from structured questionnaire. Simple random sampling technique was employed in carrying out the study. A total of 372 respondents were selected using Taro Yemeni’s formula for sample size determination. Data collected were analyzed using simple percentage and Pearson Product Moment Correlation Statistical tool. Findings showed that perceived organizational support positively correlates with University of Uyo employees’ job satisfaction and job involvement but negatively correlates with their commitment and their desire to remain with the institution. Based on these findings it was concluded that if management increases the level of concern towards employees’ well being, they may be perceived as being supportive, also, as a good place to work. As recommendations, management should provide employees with necessary tools and resources to effectively carry out their task and also encourage personal development of non-academic staff. This will heightened their morale, increase their commitment and encourage them to remain with the institution for a long period of time.
