Abstract

this research aimed to examine the factors influence employee engagement and their impact on financial performance in public sector banks in Pakistan. The study investigated how employee engagement takes place in public sector banks in Pakistan and those working in India. The results indicate that the National Bank of Pakistan has the highest employee engagement while The Bank of Punjab (BoP) has lowest employee engagement. The research concluded that in order to foster growth and productivity, all banks in Pakistan including private and public need to prioritize employee engagement. They need to motivate disengaged employees so that more productivity can be achieved as desired by the banks working in Pakistan
