1.1 INTRODUCTION:
An increase in employee engagement: Employees that are more engaged are more likely to
be innovative, devoted, and productive.
Increased productivity: A favourable EX can result in a 17% boost in worker output.

(SHRM, 2022)
Reduced turnover: Workers with a high EX are more likely to stick around, which can save
companies a lot of money on hiring and training expenses.
Enhanced customer satisfaction: Staff members that have a high EX are more likely to
deliver first-rate client care.
Stronger employer brand: A strong EX can help recruit and keep top people while giving
businesses an advantage in the labour market.
In addition to these advantages, EX is crucial for employees' general wellbeing. when

EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT:
3
Actively Engaged employees: They flourish while working in team environments with
colleagues and contribute new viewpoints and creativity to problem-solving. These motivated
employees are more inclined to collaborate more, exchange knowledge, and even become
your top brand ambassadors. These team members take the initiative on initiatives and
frequently go above and beyond what their managers ask of them. These employees are
pleased with the organisation's development and are optimistic about its future.
Not-Engaged employees: The bulk of employees fall in the middle of the involvement
spectrum. They work hard and perform their tasks, although they are more objective about the
company.Since their employment may only be a means of support, they need encouragement
to get more involved and put forth any additional effort above what is required of them. They
might not be pleased with the choices made in business.
Actively Disengaged employees: Employees who are actively disengaging from the team
can have a big impact on how the group functions. These employees typically perform below
expectations and have negative sentiments toward the company. They most likely won't
invest time in team-building activities or professional-development opportunities that could
progress their careers at the company. Additionally, if these employees are upfront about their
complaints and tactics, there is a potential that disengagement may spread throughout the
company.
Engagement is not a celebration, an incentive scheme, or a fun benefit.
While being engaged at work is rewarding, it is not a team-building exercise. It is
continuously formed by a person's relationships and working environment. Engagement is
prioritised over performance in Gallup's paradigm since it is the cornerstone of sustained
greatness. Even a highly skilled but disengaged employee may outperform their peers, but
unless they feel encouraged at work, they can never really attain their full potential.It should
come as no surprise that managers are crucial to employee engagement.In actuality, the
manager is responsible for 70% of the variance in employee engagement.
With the proper training, managers may facilitate the interactions, compliments, and
feedback that boost employee engagement, which in turn results in a positive working
environment (.https://www.gallup.com/workplace/243578/employee-experience-engagement-

ORGANISATIONAL COMMITMENT:
Organisational commitment‖ can be defined in a variety of ways. Porter L. W (1965)
described OC as ―one of which is an employee's desire to put up significant effort for the
institution's benefit, as well as a desire to stay in it and accept its core goals and values.‖
Organisational commitment is essential because it enables workers to stick with the company
for a long time and accomplish a variety of organisational goals.
The cultural, physical, and technical settings of the IT workplace have a significant impact on
OC and EE. For example, long working hours, a lack of work-life balance, and a culture of
overwork can lead to employee burnout and disengagement. Additionally, the rapidly
changing nature of the IT industry can make it difficult for employees to keep up with the
latest skills and technologies, which can lead to feelings of inadequacy and frustration and
make it less likely that they will feel committed to their organisation.
5
As a result of these challenges, many IT employees in India are feeling disengaged and
unfulfilled. This is having a negative impact on their productivity, creativity, and overall well-
being. It is also leading to high turnover rates and making it difficult for companies to attract
and retain top talent.
IT Sector:
This industry covers a wide range of tasks, including managing intricate networks, creating
cutting-edge software applications, and assuring data security. The essential characteristics,
developments, and contributions of the IT sector to the modern world are outlined in this
industrial profile.With a large number of large TNCs/MNCs and a wave of start-ups as part of
the Indian IT sector, India has recently emerged as one of the major information technology
(IT) capitals in the world. By 2025, this industry will directly employ 2.5 - 3.00 million
people, according to NASSCOM. As a result, it might be said that India's information
technology (IT) sector has expanded dramatically over the past ten years and now has a
significant global presence. The obstacles that must be overcome in this new industry's
handling of human resources are unique. Employee engagement is one of the hardest
difficulties to tackle for many international businesses and practitioners

According to Morgan, the cultural, physical, and technical surroundings all have an impact on
employee experience. He offered 17 characteristics that affect employees in generating
employee experience taking into account the three components proposed, based on the in-
depth qualitative interview with practitioners and chief Human resources officers. And to
increase organisational performance, productivity, and competitive advantage, every
organisation should concentrate on this. Employee experience is the view that employees
have as a result of their interactions with the social, physical, and technological aspects that
surround them. Therefore, every firm should make this a top priority. Achieving employee
experience is a top goal. The 17 characteristics that make up the three employee experience
settings suggested by Morgan (2017) are listed in Table 2.1.

2.2.2 EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT
Employee engagement is a method used by organisations to ensure that workers are
committed to the goals and values of the company. They are motivated to concentrate on their
own development while also making a contribution to the success of the firm.
A motivated employee is willing to go above and beyond to further the goals of the company
out of a sense of loyalty, trust, and pride. This would contribute to a decrease in absenteeism,
fewer conflicts, increased innovation, decreased attrition, and increased production.

2.2.3 ORGANISATIONAL COMMITMENT:
Meyer and Allen's (1991) "Three-Component Model of Organisational Commitment"
Three elements that Meyer and Allen outlined and which are now commonly accepted as
defining organisational commitment are:
Affective commitment is an emotional bond with a company and its objectives.
Costs allegedly connected with leaving the company, such as loss of perks or seniority, are
known as the "continuance commitment."
Normative Commitment: A feeling of moral or ethical duty to remain.
● Affective commitment: The degree to which an individual want to stay employed by a
company is known as affective commitment.An employee will want to remain
involved in your organization if they demonstrate a genuine devotion to their work.
Their accountability also suggests that they have a connection to the objectives
established by the company. They are able to see that their roles suit the culture of the
company. Devoted workers serve as brand ambassadors for your business. This is a
result of workers wanting to offer as much as they can and feeling appreciated. Any
organization can benefit greatly from having this kind of dedication.
● Continued commitment: The term "continuation commitment" describes an
employee's compulsive desire to work for a certain organization. Numerous things
could influence this, such as compensation, the availability of alternative work
alternatives, or self-assurance in one's abilities. Employees stay at a company since
they don't have any other viable options.
● Normative commitment: Normative commitment refers to an employee's sense of
obligation to remain with your company. Some workers anticipate that their departure
will have a negative impact on the company. They think their presence would have a
detrimental impact on the organization. For instance, some workers frequently
experience remorse when they quit your company.

2.2 RESEARCH REVIEW:
The literature review provides a comprehensive summary of the areas of analysis that have
been studied and points forth new directions. Given this, an effort was made to research the
subject of management, looking closely at the connection between organizational
commitment, employee experience, and employee engagement.
2.2.1 Lee, Minkyung & Kim, Bo-Young. (2023) This study intends to evaluate the effects of
employee experience on job satisfaction, psychological well-being, and organizational
commitment among corporate employees with a focus on three factors: physical,
technological, and cultural experiences. Given the growing significance of mental health
management for workers, the study investigates the relationship between mental
toughness and employee experience.The results of the investigation show that cultural
and physical experiences have a substantial impact on organizational commitment, but
technology experience does not. The study also demonstrates that psychological well-
being and job satisfaction have a positive effect on organizational commitment by
functioning as mediators.It also shows how the degree to which an employee's
experience influences organizational commitment depends on their mental toughness.
The findings suggest that by improving job satisfaction and psychological
2.2.2 Joshi, Arun & Sekar, Srinivasan & Das, Saini. (2023) The goal of this study was to
identify the key variables that influenced workers' experiences throughout the epidemic
and evaluate how relevant and impactful they were.Key factors that have been identified
in determining the experience of employees during the pandemic are work from home
(better flexibility and infrastructure support), moral support (counselling support, social
support for COVID-19 affected employees, etc.), and employee safety (sanitization,
social distance, hygiene practices, medical support, etc.). The sentiment and importance
analyses reveal that employees held pessimistic views and thought that growth and pay
were the most important EX elements.The research looked on the main drivers of the
pandemic-related
17
employee experience, assess the attitudes and weights placed on the key factors influencing it,
and investigate the primary drivers of employee experience (quality of work, tangible
rewards, quality of work, future growth, work-life balance, work environment, work values,
enabling environment, and future opportunities) in the context of the pandemic by examining
online employee reviews.
2.2.4 Pratama, E. N., Suwarni, E., & Handayani, M. A. (2022) This study aims to assess
and examine the relationship between organizational commitment and turnover intention
among PT Febri Dharma Mandiri employees, using person organization fit as a
moderating variable. This study is descriptive in character and employs a quantitative
methodology. This study employed a questionnaire to collect data from up to 123
individuals. Once the anomaly data is eliminated, 109 data points can be processed. The
data analysis used both moderated regression analysis (MRA) and multiple linear
regression analysis. The results of the multiple linear regression analysis show that the
desire to leave the company is significantly and partially impacted negatively by
organizational commitment and work satisfaction. Using the moderating variable of
person organization fit.
2.2.5 Uchil, Rashmi, (2022) The role of EE in moderating the relationship between the
EX and OC has gotten very little consideration. The lack of research on employee
engagement as a mediator between employee experience and organisational commitment
is the result of this.
18
Thus, the current study contributed to a better knowledge of the many elements of employee
experience and helped to increase employee engagement, which in turn increased
organisational commitment.
2.2.6 Dr. K. K. Ramachandran, Dr. M. Deepa, and Ms. Vallabi (2022) According
to their study, organisational culture creates the ideal setting for workers to become
dedicated to their jobs. The study investigates whether and to what extent company
culture is linked to employee engagement. With the world at their fingertips thanks to
technology, people cannow work remotely from places like tourist attractions while still
attending important businessmeetings. The workplace has undergone significant change
as a result of technology, which has also had an impact on culture and employee
engagement. The organisational culture, which acts as a glue to ensure that people work
and contribute as a team even when there are diverse types of people working there,
holds everyone together.
2.2.8 Mohanty et al (2022)This study explains about the change of considering about
employees as customers considering customers as king, attracting and retaining
customers.Now organisations are evolved in building new roles and department for
EX.The
19
aim of the study was to identify the variables that increases EX in the organisation.They have
built a universally applicable concept 4 pillars of EX.Perception of empowerment,
inspiration,enablement and involvement.These pillars will satisfy your needs and which
makes employees feel the organisation is creating human centred approach and want to work
in the workplace.The 4 pillars was designed with 10 variables of each and contains 40
variables of which the perception of empowerment enablement and involvement enhances the
EX.
2.2.9 Maria Carmen and Jose Luis (2021) Regarding Well-Being and Employee
Engagement During COVID-19: A proposal for the 5Cs Model states that the COVID-19
pandemic has affected the labor economy in a way never seen before. Employees have
suffered because of the psychological strain and uncertainty brought on by the current,
shifting work environment. This study also aims to identify the key drivers of employee
engagement that, in the current context, can lead to employee wellbeing, taking into
account the predictive relationship between employee engagement and wellbeing. This is
because of the unprecedented situation that is affecting workers in all industries
worldwide. An engagement-strengthening theoretical model for the COVID-19 era is
offered through a literature review. Negotiation, cultivation, assurance, compensation,
and communication are the key elements.
2.2.10 Yalcin, S., Akan, D., & Yildirim, I. (2021) The quantitative research method
was used in this study, which attempts to look into academicians' organisational
commitment and psychological health. The relational screening paradigm was used in the
research's design. 132 academic staff members from the Erzincan Binali Yldrm
University in Eastern Anatolia, Turkey, were included in the study's sample during the
2018–19 academic year. The organisational commitment and psychological well-being
scales were used to collect the research data. The SPSS package application was used to
examine the research's data. The following methods were used to analyse the data:
frequency, t-test, one-way (ANOVA) analysis, correlation, and regression analysis. The
study's findings showed that academicians' levels of psychological well-being was high
and Organisational commitment was moderate level. The idea of organisational
commitment seeks to integrate people into the organisation while minimising the reasons
why they might decide to quit. Today's world's heightened competitive environment
demands firms to take some precautions to safeguard their assets.
20
The organisation's human resources continuity has emerged as a key concern among these
preparations.
2.2.11 Kibum Kwona and Taesung Kimb (2020) their objectives were to: Determine and
reexamine the driving hypotheses that support research on employee engagement;
provide a comprehensive conceptual framework based on factor theories with empirical
support; According to an integrated examination of 34 empirical studies, workers believe
that their involvement is best served by striking a balance between relatively high
expectations and abundant resources. These complex relationships foster creative
behavior, and motivated staff members are more likely to turn to original problem-
solving strategies as a coping mechanism.Taken together, these findings point to the need
for an integrated conceptual framework that improves upon the original JD-R model,
better describing the factors influencing worker engagement and creative behavior.
2.2.12 Itam, Urmila & Ghosh, Nitu. (2020) in this study, the only way to create a
framework for EX, through design thinking, feeling, observing, involving and generating
the ideas or the solutions with them make the achievement of employee experience at a
higher rate. Considering diverse employees and designing is important, creating a
workspace role will have a strong and differentiated employee experience brand.
Building a emotional bond between employee and employer could be build through
empowerment, trust ,respect conducive climate and culture will have true experience of
engagement and everlastingloyalty
2.2.13 Zel, Serap & Kongar, Elif. (2020) Due to increasing digitalization and remote
work, the workforce has seen tremendous transformation in recent years. As a result,
employeesnow have different expectations and are seeking applications that are simple to
use and well- designed so they can feel more involved at work and make their duties
easier. Consequently, this is the ideal time to redesign the employee experience. For
the digital transformation ofthe user experience, technology is a crucial facilitator. These
technological advancements strive to simplify consumer lives in a setting that is
becoming more complex. Additionally, employees anticipate increasingly individualised
and consumer-like experiences at

through digital transformation.rk that reflect the traits of a digital client.incorporating
technology into key employee touchpoints and creating an extensive employee life cycle from
"hiring to learning" with the appropriate digital tools.AI solutions aid firms in enhancing the
digital employee experience. However, the compatibility of such AI-based tools with
organisational culture, the appropriate design of AI tools, and the efficiency of data
management operations are crucial for their successful adoption. Organisations should take
into account and handle additional employee concerns such as data privacy and other ethical
issues if they want to successfully use AI technologies.
2.2.14 Alrowwad, Alaaldin & Almajali, Dmaithan & Masa'deh, Ra'Ed & Obeidat,
Bader & Aqqad, Noor. (2019). This research aims to investigate the ways in which
organizational commitment, encompassing affective, continuance, and normative
commitment, can enhance the efficacy of an organization. A self-administered survey
consisting of 37 items was employed to collect data from 266 employees in Jordan.
Multiple regression analysis revealed that while emotional commitment had no
discernible impact on organizational effectiveness, continuity and normative
commitments had a significant positive impact. Additionally, the results demonstrated
that the impact of organizational commitment on effectiveness is not gender-dependent.
The findings of the ANOVA test also demonstrated that there is no appreciable variation
in the impact of organizational commitment on performance between age, experience,
and academic standing. The results have a wide range of managerial ramifications for
universities.Decision-makers need to understand the obligations of the company.
2.2.15 Jalaja.V & Sanjeev padashetty (2018) The results of this study show that leadership,
internal policies, and organizational climate all have a big impact on how engaged
employees are at work. The employee experience has a big impact on employee
engagement. Human resource managers may help employees feel engaged at work in a
number of ways. A positive employee experience will influence worker participation.
22
2.2.16 Khandelwal, S., Sharma, D., & Rajagopal, N. K (2018) Emotional intelligence
and workplace spirituality both have a substantial impact on improving employee
welfare. However, no studies have looked into how these elements affect employee
experience. The goal of the current study is to close the existing research gap. Workplace
spirituality refers to how employees view and experience their jobs, as well as how they
grow a sense of community and unity there while being closely aligned with the culture
that prevails there.Discovered that spirituality in the workplace has a favourable impact
on employment attitudes, including job commitment and satisfaction.The study
demonstrates that improving spirituality has a greater direct impact on employee
experience than improving emotional intelligence.The faculty is more engaged and
dedicated as a result of the rise in employee experience. Additionally, this fosters a more
trusting, satisfying, and productive work atmosphere and accelerates performance.
2.2.17 Radosavljevic, Zivota & Cilerdzic, Vesna & Dragic, Milan. (2017)
The purpose of the study was to assess the level of organizational commitment in the Novi
Sad region and explore whether there were any differences in levels of organizational
commitment for various examinee categories. 237 respondents who worked for businesses
located in Novi Sad made up the study's examinees. Gender, years of employment,
educational attainment, employment history in one or more organizations, and assessment of
the degree of one's own potentials are now considered to be independent variables. Went
through in accordance with a series of questions by Meyer and Allen in 1991. The findings
indicate that organizational commitment is below average (AS=2.88), with continuous
commitment being the most intense (AS=3.23) and normative organizational commitment
being the least intense (AS=2.41).Different levels of continuous commitment have been
demonstrated to be significantly influenced by work in one or more organizations. Only
the evaluation of the level of the examinees' own potential usefulness is statistically
substantially correlated with the level of affective commitment.
23
2.2.18 Anton Vorina, Miro Simonič, and Maria Vlasova (2017).According to their
study, engaged workers who feel enthusiastic about their work are a major competitive
advantage in today's workplace. For the purposes of this study, a sample of 594
respondents who work in Slovenia's public and private sectors was used. The
investigation's primary objective is to ascertain whether job happiness is influenced by
employee involvement. A written survey was carried out between 4 January and 14
March 2016. The findings demonstrate that there is no statistically significant difference
between employee engagement and gender or between job satisfaction.
2.2.19 Siva Subramanian and Rupa (2017), described how employee engagement in
IT firms leads to lower staff churn and increased productivity and profit. The practice
used in theorganisation to engage employees is also investigated by the study. It gauges
staff dedication, attitude toward work, and top-level management's backing in the IT
sector. According to the study's findings, giving people the freedom to choose their
occupations, manage their time, and accomplish their objectives may increase employee
engagement. The study suggests that managers inside firms involve workers more in
goal-setting and develop methods of acknowledging employee contributions that would
help define what constitutes employee engagement in order to increase commitment
levels.
2.2.20 Soni, K., Chawla, R., & Sengar, R. (2017) Essentially everything that a specific
employee experiences at work is included in his or her experience. Everything that
affects an employee's experience with an organisation, from the canteen to the workspace
offered to superiors, subordinates, and job designs, to the overall work environment, is
positive.Given that rewards and recognition are a component of job happiness, we can
infer that changes in job satisfaction are caused by changes in the workplace.A
company's working environment has an impact on employees' ability to advance their
careers.A poor working
24
environment would make it more difficult for the business to offer its employees rewarding
careers. According to the tests, employee experience was responsible for 46.5% of changes in
the professional advancement route variable. It is becoming more and more crucial for
businesses to make sure that their brilliant employees stay with the company. For this reason,
making sure that employees have a positive work experience and keeping them content and
happy.

3.4 RESEARCH DESIGN
The investigation is based on a descriptive research design. The who, what, when, where, and how
questions related to a particular research problem can be addressed with the help
of descriptive research designs; but, a descriptive study cannot conclusively ascertain why.
Descriptive research is used to find out more about the existing state of the phenomena and to
characterize "what exists" in terms of variables or conditions in a situation. Since the researcher
was the one who drafted the final questionnaire that IT sector employees received.
3.5 SAMPLING METHOD
The study was carried out using non-probability convenience sampling. Convenience
sampling is a non-probability selection technique that chooses respondents based on
proximity to the researcher and ease of access. Furthermore, there is no need to create a
simple random sample because the only need for this type of sampling method is if the
participants consent to participate.
Data collection refers to the process of gathering and analyzing information on variables
of interest in a defined and methodical way in order to evaluate findings, test hypotheses, and
address specific research questions. Although methods vary based on the industry, it is always
crucial to ensure genuine and accurate collecting. A researcher can utilize data,
which is an assortment of information, to manually address an issue. It's been said that
without data, research cannot be considered complete. Information or facts are referred
to as data. descriptive data that isn't numerical
29
Primary Data
The original, unprocessed information is known as primary data. Primary data is a sort of information
that is obtained by surveys, observations, or experiments from first-hand sources. A survey using a
questionnaire will be used to collect the main data for this investigation. The questionnaire is distributed to
the workers in the IT sector. They answered, and those answers are collected and examined. Google Forms
is used to disseminate the survey.
Secondary Data
Organizational sources, including books, journals, and organizational literature, provided the
secondary data for the study. The study's secondary data was acquired from a variety of
internal and external sources, including as websites, organizational charts, corporate histories,
and company journals. Numerous book and literary genres are examples of external sources..
Percentage Analysis : Logical Evaluation One of the most fundamental and well-known
statistical techniques for data analysis is the percentage technique. The information is transformed
into a standard format with a base of 100, making percentage analysis and relative comparison
more straightforward. The data interpretation in this research study makes use of the percentage
analysis. The technique used

Independent Sample T-Test:
To determine how responders from Gen Y and Gen Z differ from one another, a T-test is
performed using the mean score. The importance of differences between the variables is also
shown by the T-test. to ascertain whether the grouping variable significantly differs from the
dependent variable with regard to a particular factor or variable.
Partial correlation: Partial correlation evaluates the strength of the association between two
random variables when a set of controlling random factors are included. Using the
correlation coefficient between the two variables of interest will yield misleading results if
there is another confounding variable that is quantitatively related to both of the variables of
interest. This erroneous information can be prevented by taking the confounding variable into
account and calculating the partial correlation coefficient.

3.11RELIABILITY TEST
Cronbach's Alpha is widely used to assess the reliability of a set comprising two or more
construct indicators. Item reliability is represented by higher integers; values range from 0 to 1.0.
Cronbach's Alpha is used in this study to assess the scale's internal consistency. Use the Cronbach's alpha
test to assess the dependability of surveys that include many Likert scale questions.
For all 31 instances, the reliability value is

4.2 STATISTICAL ANALYSIS
To determine how responders from Gen Y and Gen Z differ from one another, a T-test is
performed using the mean score. T-test also highlights the importance of variations among the
variables. To ascertain if there is a substantial difference in the relationship between the
grouping variable and a certain component or variable.
Hypothesis 1:
H0: There is no differing perspectives between Two generations Gen Y and Gen Z
H1: There is differing perspectives between Two generations Gen Y and Gen Z
Inference:
Groups - Gen Y age group 25-40
Gen Z age group 21-25
Independent sample T tests have been conducted to check for the generational differences on
the EX the employees have on their organisation. Two different age groups have been
targeted for this study Gen Y and Gen Z from the respondents. It is observed that the
significance value is 0.053 which is slightly greater than 0.05 hence the null hypothesis is
accepted .Hence concluding that there is no significantly difference in two generational
groups
67
CORRELATION TEST:
A statistical study known as a correlation test is used to quantify and explain the nature of a
link between two variables. Determine whether and how strongly the variables are related
using this information. A correlation coefficient, which runs from -1 to 1, is used to describe
the outcome of a test for correlation.
Hypothesis 2:
68
LINEAR REGRESSION TEST:
Linear regression is a linear approach for modelling the relationship between a scalar
response and one or more explanatory variables. The case of one explanatory variable is
called simple linear regression. To find out the extent of influence of independent variable on
dependent variable and to predict the dependent variable given the independent variable.
Interpretations:
Considering the correlation coefficient which indicates the positive strong relationship
between two variables for further understanding of the relationship linear regression is
conducted. The P value is less than 0.01 which is less than the alpha value predetermined as
0.05, this indicates that there is strong relationship between Employee Engagement(EE) and
Experience(EX).
Continuing the further analysis the Adjusted R Square is calculated for identifying the
proportion of variance of dependent variable from the independent variable,Here the adjusted
R square value is 48.7% is variance in Employee Engagement explained by the Employee
Experience.
69
It can be explained that the linear regression equation of giving it Y=mx+c
Y(Employee Experience) =1.089 + 0.666 of Employee Engagement is derived from the table
where it is defined as for every one unit of the Employee Experience(EX) the model predicts
there will be an increase of 0.666 in Employee Engagement(EE)
70
Hypothesis 3:
71
PARTIAL CORRELATION TEST:
A statistical method called partial correlation can be used to examine the relationship between
two variables while accounting for the impact of one or more other variables, also referred to
as covariates or control variables. After the effects of the other controlled variables have been
eliminated, it aids in determining the precise relationship between two variables.
Hypothesis 4:
H0: Employee Engagement does not mediates the relationship between Employee Experience
and Organisational Commitment
H1: Employee Engagement mediates the relationship between Employee Experience and
Organisational Commitment

5.2 FINDINGS FROM STATISTICAL ANALYSIS
Collectively analysing the responses from the respondents using statistical methods, it was
found that,
Independent Sample T Test: The probability value of Independent Sample T-test is Slightly
greater than 0.05 which is level of significance. Hence, we accept the null hypothesis and
conclude that There is no significant difference between Generational groups of Gen Y and
Gen Z
Correlation Test : The Pearson Coefficient value is 0.7 Where it is found to be Strong
Positive relationship .Hence Null Hypothesis is rejected and Alternative Hypothesis is
accepted
The other Correlation Test was conducted to measure the relationship between Employee and
Organisational Commitment, Where the Pearson Coefficient is 0.7 which also indicates that
there is positive relationship.Hence Null Hypothesis is rejected and Alternative hypothesis is
accepted
Linear Regression Test: That the probability value of linear regression is less than 0.001
which is less than 0.05 level of significance. Hence, we reject the null hypothesis and
conclude that Employee Engagement has a positive relationship with Employee Experience
Partial Correlation Test: This test was conducted since Employee Engagement has Strong
relationship with Organisational Commitment and Employee Experience. To understand how
Engagement can be used to drive the mediator. The Pearson coefficient value is 0.2 which
indicates that there is poor relationship between Employee Experience and Organisational
Commitment.Hence Null Hypothesis is accepted
76
5.3 SUGGESTIONS:
77
5.5 LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY
1. Because the poll was conducted using convenience sampling, there is a chance that the
correct individual will not have responded.
2. During data collection, there is a potential that both the interviewer and the subject
will be biassed. Although every precaution is taken when gathering data, bias cannot
be completely removed.
3. While conducting the survey, there was a time limit, which made it difficult to
perform a thorough investigation.
4. The study might have missed important insights into the dynamics of employee
engagement, experience, and organisational commitment in the IT sector by not
including opinions from all relevant stakeholders.
78
5.6 CONCLUSION:
A sample of 115 respondents from the Indian IT sector provided the data for this study. These
respondents were chosen using a convenience sampling technique. Convenience sampling is
selecting participants who are easily reachable or readily available. Since respondents were
chosen in this instance based on their accessibility and desire to participate, the data
collecting procedure was quick and easy
This study used a variety of statistical tests to examine connections among generational
groupings (Gen Y and Gen Z), employee engagement, employee experience, and
organisational commitment in the context of the Indian IT industry. There was no significant
difference across generational groups, according to the Independent Sample T-test. However,
the correlation tests showed a large positive association between employee engagement and
organisational commitment as well as a strong positive relationship between generational
groups and employee experience. A favourable association between employee engagement
and employee experience was also highlighted by the linear regression test, demonstrating
that raising employee engagement has a positive impact on employee experience. When
employee engagement was the mediating factor, the partial correlation test revealed a poor
link between employee experience and organisational commitment.
