Author(s): S Rajeshekar and Alka Jain

Abstract:

A worker who is emotionally invested in their work is said to be engaged. It is based on a person's physical, cognitive, and emotional well-being, with physical engagement referring to how much an employee puts forth to fulfil their duties and emotional engagement referring to how they feel about their employer. Employers must provide employees a sense of belonging and motivate them to share the company's vision and values in order to develop a positive working environment. Organisations need engaged employees because it generates a better working environment, lowers staff turnover, increases productivity, fosters better working relationships with clients, and benefits the bottom line. Using primary data gathered from security guards working in various types of organisations, this research explores the levels of employee engagement among security guards employed in private security firms. The findings demonstrate that highly engaged workers are motivated and more productive because they are satisfied with their efforts and achievements. Age, gender, and marital status were taken into account, as well as demographic factors like age and gender. Other factors included salary satisfaction, promotion potential, successful appreciation, job enjoyment, superior relationship, initiatives, uniform value, adequate tools, suggestions, permissions, colleague and employee interactions, and insurance premiums. The names of the security guards were strictly kept anonymous and data gathering was done utilising a google form.
