Abstract
In the contemporary banking industry, human resource practices play a critical role in enhancing workforce productivity and sustaining organizational competitiveness. Among these practices, job rotation has gained increasing attention as a developmental strategy designed to expose employees to diverse roles and responsibilities within an organization. By allowing individuals to work across different functional areas, job rotation is believed to strengthen employees’ competencies, broaden their organizational understanding, and contribute to greater professional satisfaction. The present study examines the influence of job rotation on employee engagement and career growth within the banking sector. A descriptive research approach was adopted, and primary data were gathered from 100 banking employees using a structured questionnaire. Statistical techniques such as descriptive analysis, reliability testing, correlation analysis, and regression analysis were applied to evaluate the relationships among the study variables. The findings indicate that job rotation has a significant positive association with both employee engagement and career development. Employees who experience rotational assignments demonstrate higher levels of motivation, involvement in organizational activities, and opportunities for skill enhancement. In addition, the results suggest that exposure to varied job roles supports employees in developing broader capabilities that contribute to long-term career progression. The study concludes that systematic implementation of job rotation programs can strengthen employee engagement while simultaneously supporting career advancement, thereby contributing to improved organizational effectiveness in the banking sector. These insights offer valuable implications for human resource managers seeking to design effective talent development strategies.
