This research aimed to examine the association of job engagement among dental faculties in Kerala with certain sociodemographic and job-related factors. Job engagement levels were assessed using the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale, and comparisons were performed using the Mann-Whitney U-test and Kruskal-Wallis test. The findings revealed significant differences in job engagement based on the type of college, level of autonomy, and provision for time-bound cadre promotions. It also provided insights into the nonsignificant effects of gender, age, experience, and income on job engagement. The study contributes to the existing literature on employee engagement and provides valuable insights for organizations aiming to improve employee productivity and overall performance. Future research can build upon these findings to explore additional factors influencing job engagement and expand the understanding of work engagement in different contexts.
