The Effect of Environmental Awareness on Work Engagement and Employment Resilience

Abstract

A crucial aspect that employees must have is resilience as well as high work engagement. Employees who are actively involved and resilient in difficult situations at work will make higher contributions than employees with low resilience and engagement, who tend to be passive. Unfortunately, work engagement and resilience can also be influenced by environmental awareness. This study aims to see the influence of environmental awareness on work engagement and work resilience in employees, especially mining employees. The type of research used is quantitative research with a saturated sampling method. The population in this study amounted to 302 people. The subjects selected were mine employees—data analysis techniques using simple linear regression tests. The results showed that, individually and jointly, environmental awareness affected work engagement and work resilience in mining employees. The results of this study answer the assumption that workers experience a dilemma. Otherwise, environmental awareness still makes employees have high work engagement and resilience even though they work in mining companies.
