The antecedents of employee commitment to customer service: evidence from a UK service context

Article Abstract:

Commitment to customer service (CCS) research shows that employees like to provide a good customer service and are not necessarily just adhering to company policy. Employees are more likely to offer good customer service if they are fully aware of customer needs and are good at their job. Corporate policies which include good practices and advocate appropriate training schemes are powerful contributors to CCS.
