What is employee engagement? (and how to boost it)

IOSH Season 5 Episode 2

In the second episode of this new series on thought leadership, IOSH's Dr Chris Davis discusses the concept of worker engagement, its relationship with burnout, and the importance of fostering a positive work environment. 

He explores the theoretical background of engagement, its organisational benefits, and the challenges of measuring it, especially in hybrid work settings. 

The conversation emphasises the role of leadership and job design in enhancing engagement and the need for sustainable interventions to maintain worker motivation and productivity, with some key takeaways for OSH professionals.
