Abstract
A study was conducted to determine the perceived influence of organizational structure
on ECB at Vivo Energy Kenya. The research design involved a descriptive survey since
it focused on many employees within Vivo Energy Kenya. Data was collected using a
questionnaire that was administered through drop and pick later method. Percentages and
frequencies were used to analyze the objective whereas chi square was used to analyze
the relationship between organizational structure and employee citizenship behavior.
The findings were presented in tables and pie charts. The study established that Vivo
Energy had an organic structure which had been introduced in the year 2012.1t was
evident that the association between organizational structure and employee citizenship
behavior was strong and significant (X2=14.4, P<0.05, df=3).The respondents perceived
organic structure as most appropriate for promoting organizational citizenship behavior.
Further research on the same study can be done in other organizations similar to Vivo
Energy Kenya to establish whether there is any association between organizational
structure and employee citizenship behavior. The study recommends training and
development programs on ECB to educate employees on the importance of practicing
ECB. Organizational management is required to provide an enabling environment
through providing facilities to enhance ECB and leading by example.
