In general, the findings of the study show that there was no significant difference in the respondents' perception of the work commitment of part-time instructors with respect to their personal profile. Based on the summary of the findings and conclusions, the researchers recommend that the University may implement some kind of activities like team building for the part-time instructors to be more attached to URS, and so with the people around him. The University may give seminars specifically to the Part-time instructors regarding personal enhancement and interpersonal relations with co-workers alike.
