Abstract

In the modern times employee engagement has emerged as a concept which is related to almost every aspect of human resource management and other behavioral aspects of the employees working in the organizations. Thus, it is very important to emphasize upon this construct in such a manner that organizations can reap benefits of actual potential of the individuals employed in the organizations. This study based on secondary data, mainly the results and findings of previous studies is an attempt to establish a conceptual link between the constructs of employee engagement, innovative work behavior of employees and their commitment towards the organization. Engagement stimulantes higher levels of commitment and innovative behavior among the employees. The study also seeks to examine the relationship between employees’ affective commitment towards the organization and their innovative work behavior.
