Employee engagement has been high on agenda of a number of researchers and organizations in the recent years . A successful employee engagement strategy helps creating a community at the work place and not just a work force. An engaged employee is aware of business context, and works with colleagues to improve performance within the job for the benefit of the organization. The organization must work to develop and nurture engagement, which requires a two -way relationship between employer and employee. Thus Employee engagement is a barometer that determines the association of a person with the organization. As a researcher this concept requires careful investigation and the interest, therefore is to extract the determinants of employee engagement and to understand what all factors contribute to this concept. Literature has proved that it is the trust which measures the degree of employee engagement, s o in the present study the researchers have tried to find out the effect of trust and value on employee engagement.As banks and higher educational institutions offer a comparative platform to study the practices because both are in service sectors and the competencies required are relatively same. Further, these organizations are heavily focused on Human Resources as an asset and their image is directly associated with employees acts and behaviors.So in the present paper the researchers have tried to explore the rationale of employee engagement practices through data analysis by using SPSS and Excel . For the purpose the data has been collected through questionnaire and statistical tools like multivariate analysis and ANOVA etc has been used.
