Abstract
Work engagement represents the enthusiasm and dedication of employees towards the company, which can lead to creativity and innovation among employees. Work engagement in employees can be influenced by various factors, including social support such as family supportive supervisor behavior (FSBB), length of service, and age. This study aims to investigate the effect of FSBB, length of service, and age on WE among employees at PT. Apex Mitra Prima. The 136 participants (SDage = 3.39; Meanage = 26.45) completed the Utrecht Work Engagement scale (α = 0.85) and the FSSB scale (α = 0.98). The data were analyzed using hierarchical regression and post- hoc tests, including LSD. The results indicate that FSBB and length of service significantly influence WE (p < .05), while age does not have a significant effect on WE. Employees who have worked for more than five years have higher WE compared to other categories, although no significant differences were found among categories. The study's findings among 136 employees show that FSBB and length of service have a significant effect on WE, while age does not have a significant effect. The implications of this study are the importance of the supervisor's role in creating a supportive and motivating work environment to achieve optimal WE levels.
