Abstract
As we are well aware that the present day world of work based on modern technological advancement is
making a rapid headway especially in textiles industries and it is keeping someone to experience growth and
development and others at the cross road in the world of work. Hence, the present study was aimed at studying
organizational identification in relation to organizational change with particular reference to Muslim Youth workers who
are attached with textiles industries in India. For the present inquiry 300 hundred weavers comprising female weavers
(n=150) and male weavers (n=150) were selected randomly from different textiles industries of Gorakhpur, Mau,
Mubarakpur and Varanasi. Data were collected through questionnaire schedules. Having collected data, the data were
tabulated according to norms for giving statistical treatment. Results obtained have shown significance of difference
between male and female weavers in terms of their organizational identifications towards their perceived organizational
change, although, both the group of weavers (male and female) indicated favorable inclination to organizational
identification and organizational change as well. The discrepancies of results obtained have been discussed in detail by
giving appropriate probable reasons.
