SUMMARY
This study examined contract staffing and employee engagement in the oil and gas industry. Contract staffing is an employment arrangement that is not permanent in nature, and also described as (NSWA) Non Standard Work Arrangement and does not fall within the conventional standard of employment relationship. Fapohunda (2012) added that contract staffing is a work arrangement that is characterized by bad work conditions such as job insecurity, low wages, and lack of employment benefits that accrue to regular employees.
But employee engagement as stated by Maslach et al (2001) is a ‘positive, fulfilling work related state of mind that is characterized by vigor, dedication and absorption. However, the peculiar nature of contract staffing as mentioned by Fapohunda (2012) tends to justify the findings of this study.
