Abstract

Through the lens of Saks' (2006) model of engagement, this study investigates the relationship between determinants and consequences of 'job engagement' among employees from the identified top twenty pharmaceutical organisations in Chennai, India. Dimensions including 'job demands, pay and benefits, relationship with others, and supervisory support' were investigated as antecedents of job engagement, and 'job satisfaction, organisational commitment, and intentions to quit' were investigated as consequence factors. The results show that 'job demands, relationship with others, and supervisory support' were the significant determinants of job engagement, but 'pay and benefits' was not possessing a significant influence on 'job engagement'. However, the links between 'job engagement' and its consequences including 'job satisfaction, organisational commitment, and intentions to quit' were found to be statistically significant. The outcomes indicate that organisations can decrease their employees' 'intentions to quit' by effectively engaging them through identified factors to enhance their 'job satisfaction and commitment'.
