摘要
The objectives of this study were to identify the levels of work engagement in a manufacturing organisation and to investigate the relationships between job demands, job resources and work engagement. A cross-sectional survey design was used. The total available population of employees (N = 83) in the organisation participated in this study. The Job Demands-Resources Scale and the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale were used as measuring instruments. The results showed that the average work engagement level of employees was above the South African norm. Job resources, such as organisational support, growth opportunities, social support and advancement opportunities, were related to work engagement of individuals. Job demands did not play a significant role in the work engagement of employees. Organisational support and growth opportunities were the best predictors of work engagement.
