الملخص

           The aim of this research is to learn more about cyberloafing and organizational commitment and how it affects employee performance.

 The community in this study consists of employees, Masters, experts and specialized bodies from Al-Mustansiriya University from all departments.

This research is a descriptive correlation research method.

To collect data, a questionnaire consisting of 50 questions was used, which was collected for (270) administrative and academic employees who use the Internet and computers, and the Likert 5 coding option was also used.

It is essential to allow the employee to rest and participate in competitive activities.

Employers who abandon Internet services such as web browsing and social networking will see an increase in the work processes and efforts of their employees.

It is concluded from this that The effects of CYG on organizations can range from partial distraction for employees, to a serious waste of company resources.

Our study suggests that if an employer wants to reduce employees' CYG behaviour, it is helpful to pursue strategies that counter their ability to deceive others.

Focusing on responsibility and punishment deters them from this behaviour.

Management can tell employees that all their online activities are being monitored, but beware that such monitoring may violate employees' privacy, creating an undesirable work environment.

The CYG phenomenon is not evil. Surfing the Internet at work can have a positive impact on employees' emotions, as it allows them to relieve work stress.

It can also support productivity in some cases, by providing rest periods for employees that enable them to regain their focus and activity.

While employees allow themselves to engage in some online activities during work hours, work may also extend beyond their desks into their personal lives.
