“…However, work engagement, involvement and organisational commitment are different concepts, despite them being similar in terms of them contributing to positive attitudes related to personal tasks and organisational involvement (Albrecht et al , 2015; Ugaddan and Park, 2017). This perspective is consistent with the comparative and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) of the surveys of Albdour and Altarawneh (2014); Byrne et al (2016); Choochom (2014); Jeve et al (2015); Khodakarami et al (2018); Saks (2019); Shuck et al (2017). However, there is no definite definition of engagement despite numerous EE studies.…”

“…Rana et al (2014) noted that EE refers to employees' cognitive, emotional and physical state that is influenced by certain antecedents. From these definitions, Schaufeli et al ’s (2002) concept is popularly used by academics, industry researchers and practitioners (Ardichvili et al , 2014; Khodakarami et al , 2018; Nazir and Islam, 2017). Furthermore, those aforementioned studies only made use of the EE concept of Schaufeli et al (2002); Schaufeli et al (2006); and Schaufeli and Bakker (2010).…”

“…In obtaining such aspects of engagement, practitioners and scholars have examined elements that encourage employee engagement (Saks, 2006). Thus, they have focused on the constructs, strategies and conditions that overall impacted employee engagement (Khodakarami et al , 2018; Rothbard, 2001; Saks, 2006) while they overlooked the changes of impacts across different settings (Robinson et al , 2004). Because of such narrow approaches, significant barriers are posed to improving engagement (Mann and Harter, 2016).…”

A high duration of sick-leave may halt employee engagement and impose economic costs on the organization [19,20]. Correspondingly, this study uses the duration of sick leave before treatment for chiropractic and physiotherapy groups.…”
