Abstract

The study involves testing a mediation model wherein self‐efficacy is proposed as a mediator between challenging job demands and work engagement. The respondents (n = 107) were executives employed in the Indian public sector power major. The hypothesized model was tested using the Structural Equation Modeling techniques. The first three hypotheses proposing the positive relationship among the study constructs (i.e., job challenge and work engagement; job challenge and self‐efficacy; self‐efficacy and work engagement) were confirmed through results. Further, the mediation hypothesis proposing self‐efficacy as a mediator between job challenge and work engagement was established. The findings signify that addressing job challenges helps individuals to build confidence and facilitate their engagement with work.
