Abstract: Current study puts light on the role of organizational culture, job satisfaction and social influence on work engagement. Job Satisfaction plays the role of a mediator in the study. The purpose of this study is to examine how organizational culture, job satisfaction and social influence affect work engagement. Analyses of a sample of 310 employees, collected from different universities from Multan city Pakistan, explored interesting findings. Bootstrap was run using AMOS for direct relation and for the mediation study. Organizational culture, job satisfaction and social influence were found significant in predicting work engagement. Further to this, organizational culture and social influence found directly related to job satisfaction. Previous studies on work engagement have mainly focused on simple models at any given time. However, researchers increasingly claim that a complex model may give the better understanding of work engagement. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is a unique study to address a complex structure of the proposed variables.
