Abstract

This study examined social media usage within organizations during the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on employees' employment engagement, organizational engagement, organizational commitment, job satisfaction, and turnover intention. A quantitative method was employed using a sample size of 371 respondents, with convenient random sampling used for selection. Data was collected from most of the firms in Pakistan’s major cities using an online survey with a closed-ended questionnaire. The analysis was performed using a structural equation model of PLS. Our findings proved a positive and significant link between the use of social media and its influences on employees’ job and organizational engagement. A positive and statistically significant indirect relationship has also been found between social media and organizational commitment via job satisfaction and turnover intention. The study contributes to the field by verifying that social media is vital for employee performance and may subsidize employee engagement, which could decrease turnover intention.
