Leveraging the SCARF Model For Employee Engagement: An In-Depth Analysis With Special Reference To Government Organisations

Abstract

This research examines the effectiveness of the SCARF model (Status, Certainty, Autonomy, Relatedness, Fairness) in enhancing motivation and increasing employee engagement within government organizations. We have conducted multistage sampling with a descriptive and analytical design and collected primary data through Likert scale questionnaires. Extensive statistical analysis using SPSS, including regression and correlation analyses, uncovered noteworthy outcomes. The findings demonstrate a significant positive relationship between the overall SCARF model and employee engagement. Furthermore, all dimensions except Fairness exhibited a strong positive association with engagement, suggesting the importance of fostering feelings of respect, security, control, and connection for a more engaged government workforce.
