OCB has been developed more than 20 years. The scholars expanded it to the field of customer service and defined as service-oriented organizational citizenship behavior (service-oriented OCB). It’s the extension of OCB, and means that customer-contact employees engage in enthusiasm and responsible behaviors to satisfy customers. Regarding many studies of service-oriented OCB, researchers have focused on and discussed profit organizations’ employee. However, these studies have paid relatively little attention to non-profit organizations’ social workers. Based on the perspectives of personality and social exchange theory, thus, the purpose of this study is to examine the relationship among public service motivation, psychology empowerment, organizational commitment, and service-oriented OCB.
