Introduction:
The topic Employee Engagement is almost self explanatory. It is a one of the trendiest topic
in the HR faternity nowdays.If we will try to understand employee engagement in a layman
term, we could describe it as any activity that tries to hold the attention of workers to their
organization and their work and in return provides them with Incentives for their
commitment and their work.
However this defination only give a basic idea about the term and not all the aspects of the
employee engagemnt.Employee engagement is not just about holding attention or
rewarding,it comprises of a whole lot of strategys to make an employee align his/her work
ethics and culture toward organisation vision and mission.Employee engagemnt is directly
linked to employee retention strategies,infact employee engagemnt strategies are put into
effect to counter high retention rates and nowadays most of the employee engagemnt
startegies are directed to counter high turnover rate in the organisation.
The wind of employee engagement caught up with India with advent of New economic
Policys of 1990s when economy was thrown open to foreign organisation and norms for
starting a new venture were relaxed.With new organisation a new work culture satrted and
race started for getting talented workforce and then retaining them,As India was in shortage
of skilled Labour force It became Imperative for organisation to put their hands on talented
workforce.
Also with the advent of IT era and Dotcom frenzy there was major change in demographics
of Indian workforce.People started to rush toward IT sector and average age of workforce
started to go down.People started to hop jobs in IT industry which forced Employees to
think about how to retain their Workforce.Ther answer lied in Engaging Employees and
making them stay with the organization.
Employee engagemnt has become main focus of HR department in recent years and we
could trace origin of Training and Development, welfare activities, and CSRs in employee
engagemnt activities.Also it helps Brand image of an organisation if they boast of good EE
practices and if turnover rate is low.It speaks of Environment and culture of the organisation
and biggest advantage of having engaged workforce is high productivity and profits reaped
by organisation.
In this assignment we would try to understand employee engagemnt as a whole,different
aspects,process of engagement and current trends going on in industry.

2.Defination(s):
Term Employee engagemnt was first used by William.A.Kahn in 1990s.From the time various
definations has been propounded for Employee engagemnt.We would first look into
Differnt definations given by Experts.

1) William A. Kahn (1990) defined employee engagemnt as the harnessing of organizational
members selves to their work roles.

2) Schmidt et al (1993) defined Employee engagemnt as "an employee's involvement with,
commitment to, and satisfaction with work."

3) Robinson et al. (2004) define employee engagement as a positive attitude held by the
employee towards the organization and its value.

4) Perrins Global Workforce Study (2003) uses the definition employees willingness and
ability to help their company succeed, largely by providing discretionary effort on a
sustainable basis.

5) Employee engagement have also been defined as a measure of job involvement (Harter,
Schmidt & Hayes, 2002)

6) Purcell et al (2003) suggest that employee engagement is only meaningful if there is a
more genuine sharing of responsibility between management and employees over issues of
substance

7) Gallup as cited by Dernovsek (2008) likens employee engagement to a positive
employees emotional attachment and employees commitment.

Employee engagement can be defined as the level of commitment and involvement an
employee has towards their organisation and its values.
Hence, from above definitions we can conclude that component of employee engagement
are:



Commitment
Job
Satisfaction
Involvement
Rewards And
Appraisal

3. Concept:
Until now we have understood the definitions of Employee engagement, now we would try
to understand the concept as a whole and what are different aspects of employee
engagement, now we would try to understand the whole concept and its different aspects.
Organisations are needed to make their employee feel as a part of the organisation rather
than just as any other worker who would come, work and go. If an employee will feel
attached, with the organisation, it will help organisation in long term and there would be
less chance of them for leaving the organisation.
We would now try to understand type of employee in context with engagement:

According to the Gallup the Consulting organization there are there are different types of
People:-
a) Engaged--"Engaged" employees are builders. They want to know the desired
expectations for their role so they can meet and exceed them. They are naturally curious
about their company and their place in it. They perform at consistently high levels. They
want to use their talents and strengths at work every day. They work with passion and they
drive innovation and move their organization forward

b) Not Engaged---Not-engaged employees tend to concentrate on tasks rather than the
goals and outcomes they are expected to accomplish. They want to be told what to do just
so they can do it and say they have finished. They focus on accomplishing tasks vs. achieving
an outcome. Employees who are not engaged tend to feel their contributions are being
overlooked, and their potential is not being tapped. They often feel this way because they
do not have productive relationships with their managers or with their co-workers.

c) Actively Disengaged-The "actively disengaged" employees are the "cave dwellers."
They are "Consistently against Virtually Everything." They are not just unhappy at work;
They are busy acting out their unhappiness .They sow seeds of negativity at every
opportunity. Every day, actively disengaged workers undermine what their engaged
Co-workers accomplish. As workers, increasingly rely on each other to generate products
And services, the problems and tensions that are fostered by actively disengaged workers

Therefore, engagement is directly linked to employee retention. If an employee feels secure
and safe with organisation, s/he would not try to leave the organisation and would like to
continue with the organisation.
Hence, engaged employee remain with organisation and turnover rate can be reduced easily
by making them engaged with organisation.

4. Factors for Employee Engagement:

a) Motivation: Managers are needed to motivate their employees for work and make them
feel proud about the organisation, a motivated employee always works harder than other
has and is highly engaged. If a person is motivated about the work s/he do/does, they are
certainly engaged in will put their maximum effort.

b) Job Satisfaction: An employee will work for the maximum only when there is right
matching between their job and skill they posses. If a person is put on a job, which s/he
does not know how to do /he will certainly get bore of that work very easily and it will harm
organisation. Managers should keep a tab on the employees regarding this and keep taking
feedback whether their employees are satisfied with the kind of job they are doing or not.

c) Commitment: Creating a workforce of committed employee is one thing, which is always
on the mind of employee, and it is not easy. However, a committed employee would always
work for the betterment of organisation. They would always stand with organisation and
will always put on a good image of the organisation.

d) Loyalty: Every organisation needs loyal employees who would stand with the
organisation in time of crisis.

e) Trust: Trust is very important between employer and employees. Employers should have
trust on their employee to take them as party in important decisions and employees should
trust their employer in matters regarding administrative and functional decisions of
organisation.

f) Leadership: A good and fair leader is always required to take organisation to pinnacle of
success. If there is a democratic and hard working leader, s/he would easily motivate and
lead employees by his/her work standards. However if there is undemocratic and
Impassionate leader s/he would not b able to take employees as a unit toward the common
goal.

g) Values: Right and just values of the organisation motivate employees to give their best. If
employees would feel cheated and organisation did not have right values, employees would
also not respect their organization and their work.

5. Organisation Role In Employee Engagement:

a) Career Development- Opportunities for Personal Development
Organizations with high levels of engagement provide employees with opportunities to
develop their abilities, learn new skills, acquire new knowledge and realise their potential.
When companies plan for the career paths of their employees and invest in them in this way
their people invest in them.

b) Career Development Effective Management of Talent
Career development influences engagement for employees and retaining the most talented
employees and providing opportunities for personal development

c) Clarity of Company Values
Employees need to feel that the core values for which their companies stand are
unambiguous and clear.

d) Respectful Treatment of Employees
Successful organizations show respect for each employees qualities and contribution
regardless of their job level.

e) Companys Standards of Ethical Behaviour
A companys ethical standards also lead to engagement of an individual

f) Empowerment
Employees want to be involved in decisions that affect their work. The leaders of high
engagement workplaces create a trustful and challenging environment, in which employees
are encouraged to dissent from the prevailing orthodoxy and to input and innovate to move
the organization forward.

g) Image
How much employees are prepared to endorse the products and services which their
company provides its customers depends largely on their perceptions of the quality of those
goods and services. High levels of employee engagement are inextricably linked with high
levels of customer engagement.

being followed in almost everywhere KRAs are prepared and job responsibility is given.
Then the work of employee is marked through feedback system and proper increment is

multiskilled. It also gives employees an opportunity to learn new things and aspects of their
work. It provide them a chance to upgrade their skill and go for different job profile or
upgrade their job profile/designation if they became good.

get appreciated. These days every organisation encourages active participation from their
employees to get new and better Ideas for the organisation development. In return, they
are praised and also given monetary benefits.

e) Appreciation: If a person does some good work, part from monetary benefit people also
love to get appreciation from colleagues and their seniors. It boosts their morale and makes

9: Challenges in Engagement:
1) Controlling Attrition: Despite providing with extra benefits and soaps Attrition rate is
high in Corporate and IT sector.People are restless and changes job very suddenly.Sensing
attrition in starting is very crucial and organisation are working toward that.

2) Driving High Performance: Aligning mindset toward high performance is not easy and
organizations are still finding it difficult to drive high performance from employees.

3) Creating future leadership: Finding leaders and grooming them for future is another
aspect where organisations are working so as to create new leaders that would drive them
in future.

4) Attracting Womens toward high Powered Job: corporate and board rooms are still
marked by absence of female in them.It is high time management satrt worrking toward
having ambitious and high enery women in corporate nad boardrooms.

10.Conclusion:
From the above discussion we can conclude that employee engagement activities are very
necessary and currently most of the organizations are trying to provide good engagement
measures so as to retain their employees and also develop the career of their employees.
Apart from statutary measures which are compulsory, organizations are also providing
recreational and participative measures. This culture is more prevalent in corporate these
days and they are trying more innovative methods to engage their employee.
Plant level initatives are also commendable and they are also trying to retain their
employees through engagement programms however they rely more on statuatory laws
rather than providing innovative ideas.
henceforth due to these activities both employee and employer are in win-win situation.
Employee get Extra benefits and perks and employer tend to get a commited and loyal
workforce.
