Abstract	Introduction Organizational commitment refers to the extent to which employees identify with and are involved with a given organization. It is an important variable for healthcare organizations to consider since it acts as a predictor of job satisfaction, organizational efficiency and effectiveness, health professionals’ absenteeism, and turnover. However, there is a knowledge gap in the health sector about workplace factors that are associated with healthcare provider commitment to their organization. Thus, this study aimed to assess organizational commitment and associated factors among health professionals working in public hospitals in the southwestern Oromia region, Ethiopia. Methods A facility-based analytical cross-sectional study was conducted from March 30 to April 30, 2021. A multistage sampling technique was employed to select 545 health professionals from public health facilities. Data were collected using a structured self-administered questionnaire. simple and multiple linear regression analyses were employed to assess the association between organizational commitment and explanatory variables after checking the assumptions of factor analysis and linear regression. The statistical significance was declared at a p-value of < 0.05 and Adjusted Odds Ratio (AOR) with a 95% Confidence Interval (CI). Results Health professionals’ organizational commitment percentage mean score was 48.8% (95% CI: 47.39, 50.24). A higher level of organizational commitment was associated to satisfaction with recognition, work climate, supervisor support, and workload. Besides, good practice of transformational and transactional leadership styles and employee empowerment are significantly associated with high organizational commitment. Conclusion The overall level of organizational commitment is a bit low. To improve the organizational commitment of health professionals, hospital managers, and healthcare policy-makers need to develop and institutionalize evidence-based satisfaction strategies, practice good leadership styles and empower healthcare providers on the job.
