ABSTRACT
The present study aims to analyze the impact of work culture on employee engagement among employees working at the Amravati District Central Co-operative Bank. In the rapidly changing banking sector, especially within cooperative banks, employees play a vital role in ensuring service quality, operational efficiency, and customer satisfaction. A positive work culture that promotes mutual respect, effective communication, ethical practices, teamwork, and employee participation is considered essential for enhancing employee engagement and organizational performance. This research seeks to understand how various dimensions of work culture influence the level of engagement, motivation, and commitment of employees in a cooperative banking environment.
The study is based on both primary and secondary data. Primary data were collected from 50 employees of the Amravati District Central Co-operative Bank using a
structured questionnaire designed to measure perceptions of work culture and levels of employee engagement. Secondary data were gathered from books, journals, research articles, reports, and relevant online sources. The research adopts a descriptive research design, and data analysis was carried out using simple statistical tools such
as percentages, frequency distribution, and graphical representation through pie charts for better interpretation of results. The findings of the study reveal that a healthy and
supportive work culture has a significant positive impact on employee engagement. Factors such as transparent communication, supportive leadership, fair treatment, recognition and rewards, and a cooperative working environment were found to
enhance employee satisfaction and involvement in organizational activities. Engaged employees exhibited higher levels of commitment, morale, and willingness to
contribute towards achieving organizational goals. The study also highlights that employees working in a positive work culture feel more valued, motivated, and aligned with the objectives of the bank.
