Relationship between the Dimensions of Job Control and Job Engagement among the Employees in Oil Refinery Company

The present study aimed at exploring the relationship between job control and job engagement. A sample of 315 employees was selected via stratified random sampling from a larger population of all the employees working in the oil Refinery Company located in Abadan. Simple and multiple correlations were used to analyze the data. Results indicated that total job control، timing control and method control were positively correlated to job engagement. Whereas، no significant relationship was observed between supervision demands، problem-solving demand، product responsibility and job engagement and its dimensions. In addition، the results showed that timing control accounted for 14 percent of the variance of job engagement which was of considerable note.
