Employee engagement is the rudimentary idea which helps in distinguishing and portraying the idea of connection among workers and their organisation, both subjectively and quantitatively. A worker who is locked in has a hopeful disposition towards its association and qualities. This paper tries to decide the idea of employee engagement, its arrangements being trailed by the organisations, investigating them, taking perspectives of representatives, examining the criticisms got and giving suggestions for development. The paper applies exploratory factor analysis to contemplate representative commitment by means of statistic factors. The essential information was gathered through the Survey Questionnaire Method. This paper implies the ways to deal with worker commitment that have been demonstrated to enhance profitability and in addition effectiveness, keep up clients at a higher rate, lessen staff turnover and accomplish more benefits. Representatives who are locked in are more joyful, both in their own life and in work life. ​
