Respondent are 162 employees working in various startup companies in Indonesia that must fill the scale of job crafting and perceived organizational support. Data was analyzed by multiple regression analysis. These results prove the research hypothesis which states that job crafting and perceived organizational support together have a positive role on work involvement can be accepted. Job crafting and perceived organizational support together contributed 40.9% in influencing work engagement.References
