Abstract

Productivity of employees is one of the major management issues receiving much study from many scientists and was regarded as the primary mechanism for improving the performance of organisations. To guarantee long-term success, it is important to be aware of the main variables that affect productivity. This research analyses the impact of job involvement on higher education productivity of employees. In order to achieve this goal, a sample of 242 staff from public institutions in Northern Malaysia gathered primary data through an online survey technique utilising a survey tool. SPSS and AMOS Structural Equation modelling were used to evaluate the data obtained. The findings showed that commitment to work has a substantial beneficial impact on the productivity of employees. This research also shows the substantial beneficial impacts on employee productivity of all aspects of the workforce, namely energy, commitment and absorption.
