Resumen
AbstractDespite increasing awareness of the importance of managing the negative effects of organizational politics at the workplace, research on consequences relating to employees? perceptions of the same in small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Africa has received little attention. Therefore, using data from 250 SMEs in Zimbabwe, this study examines the effects of employees? perceptions of organizational politics on turnover intentions and the mediating influence of employees? perceptions of equity and organizational commitment. All the posited six hypotheses were supported by the sample data. Managerial implications of the findings are discussed and limitations and future research directions are indicated.
