Data was collected by survey questionnaires from 255 respondents working for firms located in Ho Chi Minh City during the covid-19 panamic and processed by Smart PLS.

The research findings inferred that employee engagement is influenced by the basic personal values (Conformity) or the convergence of personal values such as Power and Stimulation values, and Hedonism, Self-direction, and Achievement values. Therefore, engaged employees can be detected based on identifying their personal values. These personal values explain 37.7% of the variance of employee engagement at work in the Vietnam context. |
