The main objective of the study is to assess the potential effect of diversity management on employees' commitment towards their organisation. Primary data based on a sample of 400 respondents from 162 Indian organisations have been analysed to test the stated hypothesis. Results of regression analysis revealed that implementing diversity management in the form of equality based HR practices i.e. recruitment and selection, training and development, performance appraisal, and compensation practices leads to increased organisational commitment among employees working in firms operating in India. The implications for HR practitioners, senior managers, and organisations are also discussed.
