Abstract

In the Present Modern Society the needs and demands of Employees are more and ever lasting. Employees especially in Today's Organizations have to work closely with their Clients and Co-workers which are influenced by the level of Employee Engagement. This Study investigates the interrelationship among the Two Dimensions of Employee Engagement (Job and Organizational Engagement) with constructs such as Job Involvement, Job Satisfaction and Organizational Citizenship Behavior. The study was conducted among different categories of 400 Employees working in Five Corporate Hospitals in Madurai. The research also measures the level of Engagement among the Employees and its association with Employee Category and Income Level. Results of the Study revealed that both Income and Employee Category significantly influences Job and Organization Engagement. Job Satisfaction and Organizational Behavior significantly influences both Job and Organization Engagement, whereas Job Involvement influences only Job Engagement. Also the income and employee category significantly influences the level of employee engagement. These results suggest that organization have to adopt different strategies to improve the various factors which ultimately increase the level of Employee Engagement.
