Abstract

This study aims to examine the upshot of human resource practices on work engagement with mediation of procedural justice among faculty members of public sector universities in Pakistan. The target population of study is faculty member of 13 universities Pakistan. The research undertakes a cross-sectional and causal research design. The quantitative data is being analyzed with the help of inferential tool, structural equation modelling (SEM). Results documented that HR Practices have positive and significant effect on work engagement. Outcomes have additionally recognized that HR Practices do have positive and significant influence on procedural justice and in turn procedural justice has positive and significant impact on work engagement. Lastly study outcomes observe that procedural justice fully intervenes the association between human resource practices and work engagement. Study is domineering and important because it has observed a least observed area in research. Top management and policy makers can use findings of this research to better imply human resource practices to enhance work engagement level with the help of procedural justice in public sector universities.
