Measuring the Construct of Workplace Forgiveness:A Confirmatory Assessment Using SAS Proc Calis Procedure

Forgiveness is a robust construct, featured widely in western academic journals. However, academic discourse on workplace forgiveness is relatively rare. This paper attempts to contribute by filling up this gap and attempts to evaluate the integrity of the forgiveness construct in the Indian workplace scenario. Workplace violence signifies relative absence of footprint of forgiveness inside the organizational settings in India. The author used SAS Proc Calis procedure to evaluate the robustness of the construct. Utilization of structural equation modelling is a very recent phenomenon and is preferred for its rigor. In line with the recent advancement, the author has utilized factor analysis, and subsequently structural equation modelling technique for the present work. The findings of the research corroborate that the construct is appeared to be robust and could be utilized for other derivative studies. The present research relies upon limited sample. Hence, the results are required to be taken with requisite reservation and careful consideration.
