2.Work Engagement
In contrast to previous research, this study showed no significant
association between a low work engagement and ill health.33
Nevertheless, employees reporting low on the vigor dimension of
work engagement were more likely to have a poor to moderate health
status. The finding might be explained by the similarity between how
the vigor component of work engagement and self-perceived health
is defined. Nevertheless, we found a low correlation between vigor
and self-perceived health (Spearman ρ = 0.13). Thus, the vigor
component partly predicts employees’ health status.
Our finding that employees with a low work engagement were
more likely to report long-term sickness absence (ie, 10 or more
days) is in line with previous research.21 In this study, information
on cumulative sickness absence days was collected. Long-term
sickness absence could be driven by either the frequency or the
duration of sickness absence. Previous studies have shown that work
engagement more strongly predicted the frequency of sickness absence
than the duration.21 It is hypothesized that being absent from
