Work engagement is a crucial aspect for organizations, as it is strongly linked to increased productivity and a positive work environment. This study, which is based on social identity theory and social exchange theory, aims to understand how social support and organizational identification affect employees’ engagement over time.
An analysis of data from 150 employees demonstrated that employees who receive social support from colleagues and supervisors are more engaged in their work. Moreover, employees who strongly identify with their organization are less critical of the social support received when determining their level of work engagement. Therefore, organizations should invest in increasing identification, as well as building a high-quality social exchange relationship, especially when levels of organizational identification are low or decreasing.
