Description
Summary:Employee engagement has always been an important element for optimum organization performance. This study was conducted to determine whether the same elements that impacted employee engagement were still relevant during the pandemic. With majority of employees being asked to work from home, it is pertinent to determine what factors still affected employee engagement. The study was conducted among employees of a particular organization in Melaka. A total of 1001 employees responded to the questionnaire and data was analyzed using PLS. Organization support was found to be the most important factor affecting employee engagement, followed by organization justice and supervisor support. Interestingly, during this period of pandemic rewards did not affect employee engagement. © 2024 American Institute of Physics Inc.. All rights reserved.
