Abstract: Tourism is critical to a province's and nation's economic growth and stability. Without a substantial commitment from employees, the service industry in general and the tourism sector in particular, will not be effective. Work spirituality and mindfulness may be significant predictors of employees' organisational commitment in the tourism industry. Compounding these factors within the context of the Indian tourism sector is the study's primary objective. This study fills a research void by examining the relationship between workplace spirituality, mindfulness and organisational commitment among employees in the Indian tourism industry. The study's findings indicated a strong correlation between workplace spirituality and employees' organisational commitment. Additionally, it has been discovered that this relationship becomes even stronger with increased employee mindfulness.

Keywords: work spirituality; mindfulness; organisational commitment; Indian tourism industry.
