Current research explores the association of components of organizational benefits i.e. em-ployee empowerment and employee compensation with employee job engagement. The current in-vestigation does not only discover the relationship of these variables with employee job engagement but at the micro level this study incorporates the actual concept of employee job engagement (Khan 1990 model) i.e. physical engagement, emotional engagement and cognitive engagement. A de-signed questionnaire with 23 items was utilized for collection of primary data. 312 fully completed questionnaires were utilized in the final analysis. Results of current research validate that employee empowerment has low positive impact on employee job engagement and employee compensation has a prominent positive influence on employee job engagement. The result reports that employee empowerment has a minor positive effect on physical engagement. Additionally, employee compen-sation benefits have remarkable effect on physical engagement. Results impart that employee em-powerment has a positive but very insignificant effect on emotional engagement. Employee com-pensation benefits have a positive momentous effect on emotional engagement. Lastly the influence of employee empowerment and Compensation Benefits on cognitive engagement demonstrates that both variables have a predominant influence on cognitive engagement.
