Abstract
The study investigated succession and strategic employee planning as predictors of teachers’ job commitment in secondary schools in Bayelsa State. Two research questions and two hypotheses guided the study. The design employed for the study was correlation survey. The population of the study consisted of 3,477 respondents out of which 490 respondents were sampled for the study using random sampling technique. Instrument used for data collection was questionnaire titled “Successive and Strategic Employee Planning Scale” (SSEPS) with 20-items for collecting data on the independent variables of the study and 20-items questionnaire tagged “Teachers Job Commitment Scale” (TJCS) used for data collection on the dependent variables of the study. The questionnaires were face and content validated by two experts in Measurement and Evaluation. Cronbach alpha statistics was used to determine the reliability of the instrument with the values of Succession Planning (SP) and Strategic Employee Planning (SEP) as 0.87 and 0.88 while the reliability of TJCS was 0.90. There were 490 copies of the questionnaire administered out of which 472 copies were retrieved which implied a 96.3% retrieval rate. Research questions raised were answered using simple regression analysis while the hypotheses were tested using t-test associated with simple regression at 0.05 level of significance. Findings of the study showed that succession planning has a high positive relationship of r=0.79) while strategic employee planning has a low positive relationship of r=0.30 with teachers’ job commitment in secondary schools in Bayelsa State. It was recommended that school administrators should delegate responsibilities to promote succession planning in the schools.
