Abstract

Empowering workforce is very crucial for overall performance of an organization. A conducive work environment helps create competitive edge for the organization and its capability to be more profitable which in turn ultimately promotes good organizational health. Researchers have found a correlation between the empowerment of the employee and the relationships among them and these two influencing the organizational health. The present paper aims to study the employee empowerment and the employee relationship climate to access their effects on the overall organizational health . A descriptive research design is adopted using the convenience sampling technique among employees of a leading PSU ( one of Navaratna PSU Companies ) engaged in the power sector. Selected employees for the survey are from the categories of 4 grades such as - W, E1-E4, E5-E6 and E7. Responses are collected through standard questionnaire. Data analysis shows that both the employee relationships, and the empowerment have a significant positive effect on the core value actualization (r = .172 & .357 respectively) which denotes good organizational health and has resulted in the smooth running of the organization.
