Abstract |
|
In this study, we investigate the effect of organizational factors—namely work flexibility, career development, and monetary incentives—on the happiness of millennial employees in utility organizations in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). This generation plays a crucial role in organizational success, yet is often associated with high turnover and low engagement. Additionally, the UAE’s decline in workplace happiness rankings raises concerns about employee satisfaction across sectors, including among millennials. A quantitative method was employed to gather data from a sample of 120 utility-sector employees, born between 1980 and 2000, distributed across five branches in the northern region of the UAE. A simple random sampling technique was applied, and regression analysis via SPSS was used to test the hypotheses. Findings reveal that organizational factors significantly affect millennial employee happiness. These results underscore the importance of fostering a positive work environment to enhance productivity and retention. It is recommended that UAE organizations and policymakers prioritize millennial well-being to drive innovation, performance, and sustainable growth. |
