demands as well as high control. And social support correlated
significantly with high work engagement. High
demands as well as low control and social support. Correlated

included engagement as an independent variable together
with, demands. Control and social support in the multivariate
analysis the positive, correlation between demands and
depression remained. As well as the significant correlations

support became non-significant.This indicates that engagement
mediates the effects of control and social
support on the level of depression. Encouraging. Enterprises
