Abstract

Work engagement (WE) plays an important role in enhancing organisational performance (OP). Despite the considerable attention paid by developed economies, WE has been ignored in emerging economies, especially in Pakistan. This study used a survey questionnaire to investigate the relationship between WE and OP. Moreover, the mediating role of innovative work behaviour (IWB) and the moderating role of perceived distributive fairness (PDF) are also examined. Data collected from 535 manufacturing industry employees found that WE has a significant positive effect on IWB and OP. However, this effect becomes stronger after introducing PDF as moderator. Moreover, the mediating effect of IWB is also proved. Considering the results, manufacturing companies should put more emphasis on the WE level of employees. WE should be promoted to enhance OP through PDF and by pushing employees towards innovative work behaviour.
