The commitment of academicians is incredibly significant for an academic institution. Once the employee’s commitment diminishes, the institution could face the challenge of complexity in retaining them. Organizational commitment (OC) is becoming an increasingly significant issue in competitive educational environment of higher education institutions (HEIs). The core objective of this “Review Article” is to inspect whether there is any relationship between both or not? How to decrease the ITL of employees is a key confront for HEIs. To survive in highly competitive educational settings, institutions are centering on how to take advantage of its human capital. The degree to which faculty members in fact dwells on their lower commitment and leave their institutions is an empirical query, but the institutions would help from a better understanding of what contributes to faculty’s decision to leave. The foremost idea of this study is to propose a new framework based on literature that gives emphasis on reducing the intention to leave among the academicians in the HEIs. The review of the related literature provides the basis for the “theoretical framework” upon which the research model stands. This study examines the relationship of OC as independent variable and the ITL as the dependent variable. Employee’s voluntary switchover incurs serious sum of cost for an institution. As a result it is important to identify ITLs as early as possible in order to enable the administrators to plan and implement courses of action.
