| Summary: | The current study attempted to address notable research lacunae by investigating a potential link
between developmental HR resources and work engagement.Drawing upon the explanations of Conservation of Resources theory (COR), the present study attempted to assess the relationship
of developmental HR practices including employee training opportunities, career development opportunities and developmental performance appraisal with work engagement.Following to
this, the study also examined the moderating effect of developmental performance appraisal on
the relationship of employee training and career development opportunities with work engagement.Large six banks in Pakistan were sampled for the present study through using self administered approach.Whilst using partial least squares structural equation modeling technique,
the 277 respondents`data outlined significant direct relationship between all developmental HR
prospects and work engagement.However, developmental performance appraisal did not pose
any significant interaction effect on the relationship of employee training and career
development opportunities with work engagement. The study forwards theoretical and practical
implications particularly for the banking sector of Pakistan. |
