Abstract: Work engagement is vital for companies and workers. It creates a productive, profitable workplace. Engaged workers are more productive, committed, and innovative, improving job satisfaction, turnover, and business results. There appears to be a limited study where work engagement is being predicted by personal characteristics among non-teaching personnel in a higher educational institution. This quantitative research made use of the descriptive, correlational (predictive) design to assess whether the personal characteristics predict work engagement of the non-teaching personnel in the Gullas College of Medicine, Inc. for the first quarter of quarter of 2025. Findings of the study revealed that majority of the respondents were belonging to the 18 to 35 years old age group while over half of the respondents were females and majority of the respondents were single while over one third were married. Majority of the respondents were Catholics and were college graduates and just over one third of the respondents were medical education staffs. Just over half of the respondents had served the organization for one to three years. Overall, the respondents had a very high work engagement. In terms of vigor, dedication, and absorption, they were rated as very high. The personal characteristics of age, sex, marital status, religion, highest educational attainment, position, and years of experience did not predict work engagement. In conclusion, work engagement is not influenced by the personal characteristics of age, sex, marital status, religion, highest educational attainment, position, and years of experience. This means that work engagement can still be high no matter what the age, sex, marital status, religion, highest educational attainment, position, and years of experience of the person. In order to address the findings of the study a work engagement sustenance plan is proposed.
