| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this study was to investigate the
antecedents of employee engagement in the context
of a developing country. A cross-sectional survey design
was used with a sample of 309 employees in
organisations in Namibia. A biographical questionnaire
and questionnaires that measure employee engagement
and antecedents of engagement were administered.
Work-role fit and job enrichment showed the strongest
relationships with employee engagement, while rewards,
co-worker relations, resources, supervisor relations and
organisational support showed moderate relationships
with employee engagement.Work-role fit, job enrichment
and the availability of resources affected employee
engagement indirectly via experiences of psychological
meaningfulness, while the availability of resources
and co-worker relations affected employee engagement
indirectly through psychological availability. The results
confirm the important role of psychological
meaningfulness and psychological availability as
mediators between work-role fit, job enrichment,
resources and co-worker relations on the one hand, and
employee engagement on the other | en_US |
