Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine Job Engagement concept as well as the scale for technology management in China. 230 subjects from a research institute in Beijing presented with questionnaires on job engagement, job burnout and job characteristics, and 20 of them were interviewed. Using SSPS software, the authors processed the data or information collected for psychological statistics analysis, exploring factor analysis, and regression analysis. The results indicated: the concept of job engagement can reflect the psychological status of the technical staff at work; UWES-C is reliable and valid; UWES-C and the job engagement prediction model can be helpful with safety management.
