Fostering Employee Engagement: The Role of Organizational Factors in Pune's Industries

Abstract Background: Employee engagement has become the most sought-after topic of research in management. Its growing significance and abundant research findings have time and again established that engaged employees are one of the key assets for any organization’s success. To drive this engagement organizations also have to provide a conducive environment where the sentiments of employees are influenced by the factors existing in the environment. Objective: This research paper is based on one construct from my doctoral theses, Rawat Poonam (2020). The objective of this particular paper is to primarily identify the aspects in an organization that employees experience as an influencing factor on their level of employee engagement. Methodology: A survey method was used to know about the awareness of engagement among employees, their employee engagement levels, and organizational factors that impact engagement. Result: Employees are influenced by factors within an organization. Predominantly, employees are influenced by an organization's reputation and the career opportunities it can provide for their growth. Employees are motivated by a healthy working environment that enables them to learn, develop and shape their skills. The organization's Senior leadership influences the employees through their vision and concern for people.
