Abstract

Employee engagement is an emerging approach for organizational success as well as holding talented employees. Engagement contributes extensively to an organization's performance, leading to improvement in profitability, customer satisfaction and long-term financial results. It also helps the employees to make a noteworthy contribution to their organization. Lack of consensus among the academicians, research scholars and management consultants on the definition of engagement has created an academic and research gap. A majority of reviewed conceptualizations shared a multidimensional nature of employee engagement. This paper is based on quantitative content analysis of employee engagement. The purpose of the study is to determine the frequency of different dimensions employed to define engagement. The results illustrate that psychological investment and workrole performances are the most counted dimensions to measure employee engagement. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
