Paper Title:
An analytical study of Employee Engagement factors and their impact on Organisational Citizenship Behaviour of employees of Organised Retail Stores in Chennai
This study explored the influence of employee engagement factors on organisational citizenship behaviour (OCB) among employees working in organised retail outlets in Chennai. Adopting an exploratory and cross-sectional research design, a mixed-methods approach was utilised to capture both breadth and depth of employee perceptions. Primary data were collected through a structured questionnaire administered to 200 employees with at least two years of work experience, selected using purposive sampling. Descriptive statistics were employed to highlight employees’ perceptions of engagement dimensions, while inferential techniques—including independent samples t-tests, correlation analysis, and multiple regression—were applied to test the research hypotheses and identify the predictive capacity of engagement factors on OCB.
The findings revealed that job satisfaction, management support, and work–life balance significantly influenced OCB, whereas career development opportunities had a comparatively weaker effect. Correlation results confirmed strong positive associations between employee engagement and OCB, and regression analysis demonstrated that the engagement factors collectively explained a substantial proportion of variance in employee behaviour (Adj. R² = 0.761). The study enriches engagement and OCB literature by extending empirical evidence to the retail sector and provides practical implications for managers to strengthen satisfaction, supportive supervision, and work–life initiatives. Recognising limitations of geographic scope and self-reported measures, the study suggests that future research should extend to different regions and industries for broader generalisation.
