Abstract

The aim of the paper was to develop and test an integrated model of supervisor support and employee task performance with sequential mediation of reliance, disclosure, and felt an obligation. Data was collected through self-administrated questionnaires from public sector organization’s employees. Overall, 228 samples were collected by using purposive sampling techniques. SEM was applied for testing the sequential mediation. The results revealed that supervisor support has a significant impact on employee task performance. Reliance and felt obligation are also playing a positive sequential mediation role in the said relationship. The second path disclosure and felt obligation also shows the supporting sequential path.
