Embracing employee engagement
Employee engagement describes the level of enthusiasm and dedication a worker feels toward their job. Engagement is often measured on the employee’s contribution to the company and how satisfied a worker feels with their job role.
An engaged employee cares about their work and about the performance of the company; a disengaged employee will feel unenthusiastic and demotivated, which is detrimental to business if the worker no longer ‘gives their all’.
Benefits of good employee engagement
- better employee retention rates
- higher productivity
- lower absenteeism
- increased productivity
- stronger employee brand

Many factors contribute to good employee engagement and People Business is on hand to help you identify areas for improvement and implement changes.
What our clients say about us
Gabrielle Silver, CEO, Bioscript
“Working with the People Business felt seamless from the outset. They rose to the challenge within days of requesting support and remained flexible and invested throughout. My relationship with the People Business consultant was reassuring. They provided considered advice whilst also delivering hands on implementation support. They brought in additional consultants as needed and Andrea gave senior level counsel for the more complex programmes. I would absolutely recommend them to support a rapidly growing business as it professionalises as well as to cover HR leadership roles as needed. Thank you People Business!”
