Abstract Employee engagement is an important factor that can enhance performance and productivity of employees. Employee engagement leads to employee performance that is necessary for the business to become a market leader. Employee engagement may influenced by work centrality and narcissism. This study investigates the effect of work centrality (i.e importance of work in one’s life) and narcissism (i.e self-love) on employee engagement. Current study also extends the work done by Fenzel (2013) by adding psychological contract (i.e relation between employee and employer) as a mediator between work centrality and employee engagement. Data was collected from 250 employees of brokerage firms of PMEX (Pakistan Mercantile Exchange) through convenience sampling. Unit of analysis is individual (BDOs) working in brokerage firms. Multiple regression and Hayess process is used to check hypothesis. Findings of this study demonstrate that work centrality has significant positive relationship with employee engagement and there is no significant relationship between narcissism and employee engagement. A full mediation exists between the relationship of work centrality and employee engagement through psychological contract.
