摘要：Online platform working, Gig working, E lancing and Moonlighting have become synonymous in the Industry 4.0. Searching for and practicing alternative employments is an important phase in recording the sequence of employees’ withdrawal cognitions (WC). WC have been studied in the past majorly in relation with job attitudes for the ultimate consequence of turnover but in this virtual era, it is equally considerable to investigate the relationship of job attitudes with this important cognition sequenced before turnover stage, i.e. moonlighting, which may ultimately lead to turnover. This paper proposes to conduit the research gap of investigating the effect of Job Satisfaction on Moonlighting Intentions and the mediating effect of Organizational Commitment between these two variables. SmartPLS 3.0 software has been used to execute partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) for the research framework on a sample of 161 IT professionals working in the North Indian IT hubs of N.C.R. Delhi and Chandigarh. In the present study, four hypotheses have been employed for examining the relationships among the variables Job Satisfaction, Organizational Commitment and Moonlighting Intentions. PLS –SEM supported all of them. Organizational Commitment has a mediating effect between Job Satisfaction & Moonlighting Intentions while Job Satisfaction puts a very high positive impact on Organizational Commitment. In addition, Organizational Commitment shows a very significant inversely proportionate relationship with Moonlighting Intentions.
