摘要:AbstractEmployee engagement is emerging as a critical organizational issue especially as businesses are recovering from the trauma of the global recession. Employee engagement has been an area of interest among many researchers and it had received a greater recognition among consulting firms. Therefore, there is a need for academic research on the construct to ascertain the claims of the human resource consulting firms as well as to add to the existing knowledge of employee engagement in the literature. This study was conducted on 104 HR officers working at the Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia with the purpose ascertaining the uncertainty about the influence of individual factors of employee engagement on work outcomes using the measures of employee engagement (job and organization engagements) as the mediating variables and the social exchange theory as the theoretical underpinning. The mean, standard deviation, t-test and multiple regression were employed for data analysis. The findings of this study showed a significant difference between job engagement and organization; with co-employee support as a major individual factor that influences both measures of engagement and the work outcomes.
