Employee engagement is the level of commitment in the relationship between an employee and the organisation they work for. It can be described as the emotional feelings an employee has towards that organisation as a whole. Evidence suggests that workplaces with higher employee engagement create higher levels of innovation, productivity and performance. Emotionally engaged employees exhibit higher levels of performance and personal wellbeing.
