In the past, the workplace friendship and organizational commitment will not only reduce the turnover rate of employees but also improve work performance in other industries, and what is the situation in the hotel industry? This study mainly verified the relationship between workplace friendship, organizational commitment and job performance in the hotel industry. The sample was carried out in January and February of 2018 by high star hotel employees, 300 valid questionnaires were collected, and the PROCESS analysis method was used to verify the hypothesis. The results show that workplace friendships have a significant impact on organizational commitment and job performance, and organizational commitment has a significant impact on job performance, and organizational commitment also shows complementary mediating effects. The friendly workplace atmosphere will affect the performance of the employees, and then affect the hotel's operating conditions and results. According to the results of this study, we suggested that the hotel establish a good working environment and promote good friendship development in the workplace, so as to achieve work performance and organizational goals.
