The study was conducted on a population sample size of 80 respondents at Mukono General Hospital.

First the overall responses were analyzed and then the group responses were also analyzed using regression analysis.

Further studies also indicated a high percentage of the respondent’s response on employee engagement due to the provision of non-financial rewards and how these non-financial rewards generally affect their level of engagement with Mukono General Hospital.
