Abstract: Success stories of burgeoning business organisations have been made possible by the contributions of engaged employees. Engaged employees express themselves physically, emotionally, and intellectually while performing their roles in the organisation. This study endeavours to examine the concept of employee engagement through literature review. In addition, the study endeavours to identify the key predictors of employee engagement. Based on a review of existing literature, six hypotheses have been posited which show the relationship between employee engagement and its predictors. Also, the study advances a theoretical model depicting predictors of employee engagement which include leadership behaviour, organisational culture, work-life balance, and rewards and recognition. The findings of the present study have practical implications for human resource managers through formulating and implementing human resource policies, strategies, and practices for enhancing employee engagement of the employees.
