| dc.description.abstract | The aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between high performance work system (HPWS), self-efficacy and work engagement. Based on job-demand resources theory, four hypotheses were proposed to examine the relationship between HPWS and work engagement, HPWS and self-efficacy, self-efficacy and work engagement and the mediating effect of self-efficacy in the relationship between HPWS and work engagement. In order to test these hypotheses, cross sectional research design was used and the data were collected through self-administered questionnaires using a sample of 268 employees of five business organisations located in Lahore, Pakistan. Results of the study confirmed hypothesized model and showed that self-efficacy partially mediated the relationship between HPWS and work engagement. The study concluded that HPWS acts as a job resource and helps in enhancing self-efficacy to further promote work engagement of employees. The theoretical and practical implications of the study are also discussed. | en_US |
