Abstract

Nowadays, employee engagement as a key of success for an organization and the job satisfaction is an important factor to enhance the employee engagement. However, there is limited research on identifying the relationship between job satisfaction and employee engagement in Malaysia. Therefore, the aim of this study is to identify the relationship between extrinsic and intrinsic job satisfaction and employee engagement. The two extrinsic job satisfaction factors are compensation and supervisor support and the two intrinsic job satisfaction factors are recognition and career growth. There were four manufacturing companies involved in this study located in Kuching, Sarawak. A total 70 sets of questionnaires were distributed based on convenience sampling. Although 70 sets of questionnaires were collected back, only 68 sets of questionnaires were usable. The findings showed that compensation had weak positive relationship with employee engagement. For supervisor support, recognition and career growth, there were a significant moderate positive relationship with employee engagement. The career growth was dominant factor in relation to employee engagement. Recommendations were presented based on the findings of this study.
