Abstract

This study examines job engagement, retention intention, and work performance among faculty members in Philippine medical schools. Using a quantitative approach, survey data were collected to assess job engagement (vigor, dedication, absorption, and work involvement), retention intention (job satisfaction, organizational commitment, career growth, and work-life balance), and work performance (instruction, research, and community service). Statistical analyses revealed high levels of engagement (3.71-3.73), retention intention (3.73-3.77), and performance (3.49-3.66). Correlation analysis found a moderate positive relationship between job engagement and retention intention (r = .667, p = .000) and job engagement and work performance (r = .513, p = .000), with a strong relationship between retention intention and work performance (r = .717, p = .000). Regression results indicated that absorption, vigor, and dedication significantly predicted work performance (49.70% variance explained), while job satisfaction and work-life balance influenced retention intention (52.80% variance explained). Findings suggest the need for faculty development initiatives, mentorship programs, and work-life balance strategies to enhance engagement, retention, and performance. Institutional efforts should focus on structured support systems to sustain faculty motivation, commitment, and overall educational effectiveness.
