Acknowledgements


First and foremost, I want to thank Almighty Allah for giving me the ability and
opportunity to submit the report on time. The internship report submitted here is
accomplished as part of Post Graduate Diploma in Garment Business program. The
preparation of this study received assistance, direction and took valuable time of my
academic supervisor Dr. Md. Mohiuddin, Professor, Institute of Business

However, I am immensely grateful to several people of Banani Trading House; I am
grateful to Mr. Hasnat Mohammad Alamgir (General Manager), Mr. Rabiul Alam,
Manager (Accounts & HR). The whole HR, Admin & Compliance Department of Banani

Finally, I would want to express my gratitude to my academic supervisor, Dr. Md.
Mohiuddin Sir, for his ongoing help, support, and guidance, as well as the time he
spent refining my report. The internship would have been aimless if it hadn't been for
their unwavering support.

Chapter 1: Introduction
In RMG Sectors and its related counter parts, most of the changes emerged following
the worldwide attention on the Rana Plaza disaster in 2013. The transition remains
ongoing, taking into account the variations in workplace culture and environmental
changes in the garment industry as well as all other supply chain partners. The
modifications involve employee involvement, beneficial work environment practices, a
secure workplace, and staff engagement. The report will evaluate employee
engagement and motivation to work as a crucial element for Banani Trading House.
The report outlined the status of employee engagement and motivation within an
office. The research will also emphasize employees' views on engagement and
motivation in their work at Banani Trading House. Based on the report outcome I’ll
suggest top management if there is any improvement needed on the policy. This
analysis will help to analyses the motivation level and engagement level among all the
employees.
Banani Trading House is a well-known, authorized, and one of the oldest suppliers of
Groz-Beckert needles in Bangladesh, successfully functioning since 2005. The
organization has positioned itself as a unique entity that assists garment and knitting
factories throughout Bangladesh by supplying needles which is the most crucial item
for supply chain department, and it is much more organized than many other local
offices in the country. The HR Department, together with other divisions, plays a vital
role in the company's success and collaborates as a team to achieve the best results
from the workforce. The distinction between organizational engagement, focused on
boosting organizational performance, and work engagement, which aims to improve
employee well-being, suggests that the blend of these two types of engagement can
offer insights into how an organization like Banani Trading House manages its human
resources overall.

1.1. Objective
The main aim of the report is to assess employee engagement and motivation through
Gallup's engagement survey at Banani Trading House. The research aims to illustrate
multiple objectives, which include displaying the current state of employee motivation
and engagement within their workplace; reflecting the organization’s staff
perspectives on their encouragement and engagement via feedback which will be
collected through a survey; and illustrating the correlation between employee
satisfaction, engagement, and motivation through correlation analysis.
1.2. Rationale of the Study
The research was conducted specifically to demonstrate the level of employee
engagement and motivation at Banani Trade. The research will demonstrate
approaches to handle employee engagement and motivation in this sector, which
currently has a developing work environment and insufficient academic study. In the
clothing industry, overseeing personnel and maintaining their motivation during their
employment is quite difficult, making it crucial for management to grasp the situation
from the employees’ perspective. The research will enable the management to
understand its staff and strategically manage, motivate, and inspire them for lasting
commitment.

Chapter 3: Literature Review
"Employee engagement" is a term used by human resources (HR) to describe how
passionate and dedicated a worker is to their job (SMITH, 2020). Evaluating Employee
Engagement and prioritizing it among all responsibilities for further development is
essential and critical. The Banani Trading House study used Q12n, Gallup's survey on how
much people like their jobs. The basis for it is more than 30 years of behavioral economic
research with 100,000 teams and more than 2.7 million workers (Effy, 2022). Gallup made
a 12-item engagement metric called the "Q12" based on a survey of 50 different industries
(Inc, 2021). Through comprehensive research, employees have delineated 12 essential
traits (the Q12) that are significantly correlated with critical business outcomes. (Vale,
2011). These 12 statements were the best signs of how well a workgroup or employee
was doing. Gallup's employee engagement survey aims to examine the factors influencing
organizational effectiveness and employee engagement (Sorenson, 2013).
Employee engagement is very important for the growth, performance, and quality of any
organization (Kenyi and John, 2020). Focusing on employee engagement may help
businesses grow and stay in business during tough economic times (Sorenson, 2013). It
could also help businesses survive in tough social and economic situations, like when there
is political or economic upheaval. Motivation is the strong internal drive to meet an unmet
need or reach a certain goal. Also, it is a process that starts with a physical or mental
demand and ends with a goal-oriented performance. (Dobre, 2013). Employee motivation
is the level of enthusiasm, dedication, and creativity that workers bring to their jobs (Inc.,
2018). People are motivated by how much they feel like they have power and are
involved in the company's goals (QuestionPro, 2019). The phrase "employee motivation"
refers to a person's natural desire to do or not do something in a work setting. The Q12
strangely looks at what makes people happy at work, but Gallup calls it a sign of
involvement (Schaufeli & Bakker, 2010). In reality, companies typically fail to make the
necessary adjustments that will engage employees or satisfy their demands at work when
they only focus on measuring engagement rather than enhancing it (Mann & Harter,
2016). There is no one technique that can be used to consistently raise employee
engagement and motivation for higher activity levels and creative output (Stoyanova and
Iliev (2017).

Chapter 4: Methodology of the Study: Data and Methods

This chapter explains the research method used, including how the sample was chosen
and how the data was collected and analyzed. The approach was slightly modified to
fit Fiona Vale's method (Vale, 2011). Chapter four examines and analyzes the data.
The proposed inquiry used a quantitative method. The data collected from the
questionnaire was evaluated using Microsoft Excel to find the average and percentage.
The investigation included both table and graph analysis.
4.1. Nature of the Study
Both descriptive and evaluative objectives guided the study. The research examined
Banani Trade's current employee engagement and motivation levels. It also
considered staff members' views on the overall effectiveness of the organization in
these areas. The research used a quantitative questionnaire. Each participant was
individually asked for their consent to take part in the study.
4.2. Study Place and Period
The study was carried out at the Banani Trade’s Office. The study was undertaken
from August to September 2025. The analysis and evaluation work were done
recently.
4.3. Population size and sample size
Samples were collected using purposeful sampling (Saunders, Lewis, & Thornhill,
2019). The survey focuses on managers and executives who have been at Banani
Trade for over a year. From 112 employees, primarily executives and managers from
Banani Trade, a total of 46 samples were collected. To ensure a representative data
sample, a percentage of 50 from each of Banani Trade's departments (Accounts, Audit,
Commercial, Sales, Store, HR, Admin & Compliance, Logistics, IT, Supply Chain) was
included.

Table 1 Population Size & Sample Size
4.4. Data Collection Technique
The majority of the study's data came from surveys and secondary sources.
Information from Banani Trade authorities was included when necessary to keep the
report neutral and clear. The study involved visits to various desks and departments
for firsthand experience. The data collected comes from multiple sources. The key
sources for this research were divided into two categories: Gallup's Engagement
Questionnaire (see Appendix) and in-person interviews with senior officials of the
organization. Additional sources of secondary data include the organization's annual
report, other public documents, relevant books, research papers, human resources-
related newspapers and journals, articles about employee engagement and
motivation, and Gallup.
4.5. Ethical Considerations
To collect data and conduct the investigation, the necessary skills and resources were
used. There was no bias in the sample selection process since it was done randomly.
Staff members felt no pressure, and participants consented to engage in the discussion
and complete the questionnaire. The form did not ask for any personal or irrelevant
questions, nor did it include any misleading or racially offensive language. There were
no unclear words or sentences in the questionnaire. Participating in the poll did not

Page | 8

affect a person's job status. The responses were anonymous, and all information was
kept private. Every piece of data collected was used solely for research.
4.6. Gallup's Q12 survey
One tool for assessing employee engagement is the Gallup 12 Workplace Assessment
(Khanna, 2020). Employee engagement is measured at a specific time using a Q12
survey. This survey provides information to help improve employee engagement. After
a detailed study of the factors that distinguish high-performing teams, the Gallup
Organization created the Q12 questionnaire (Inc., 2021). Since none of the questions
in the Q12 survey directly address manager traits or behaviors, it is not intended to
serve as a management evaluation. It reflects the team's overall commitment.
Each of the twelve elements in our employee engagement questionnaire fits into one
of the four levels of employee development needs, which forms the basis of the
employee engagement framework (Inc, 2021).

Figure 1: Different Levels of Gallup's Q12 survey (Inc, 2021).

Chapter 5: Results and Discussion
Details regarding the sample group surveyed for this study are given in this chapter.
Following that, the survey's preliminary findings are shown both graphically and
tabularly.
5.1. Survey Analysis
Employees that are working late, are not compensated in Bangladesh. When workers
actively participate in their work, they are more motivated and satisfied. Staff
involvement and motivation go in harmony mutually beneficial. People enjoy their jobs
when they collaborate well. Employees lack the time necessary to express their
opinions on a range of subjects and take part in crucial decision-making.
5.2. Quantitative Analysis of Data
Participants were also given the assurance that their responses would remain
confidential. It was doubtful that the research study could identify any of the
participants because neither their name nor any other personal information was
collected. Respondents were asked to score the following statements using a Likert
scale with six response options: 1 for strongly disagree, 2 for disagree, 3 for neutral,
4 for agree, and 5 for strongly agree.

Our study's Pearson's r value for the relationship between satisfaction and
engagement is 0.528. Thus, it can be said that there is a positive correlation between
our satisfaction and engagement traits. Thus, if the degree of participation in the
Banani Trade increases. The workforce is also more satisfied. There is a strong positive
correlation between motivation and engagement because r is close to 1, at 0.807. It
suggests that as engagement levels change, Banani Trading House's employees'
motivation levels will also change.

Conclusion
Research of this kind will identify key players in the Supply Chain part of RMG sector, which
needs academic participation for growth and strategic decisions. Positive feelings that
employees have for the organization and its principles are referred to as "employee
engagement." It focuses on the impact of employee communication on a company's
operational efficiency. Employees need to be recognized as the most important factor in
determining a company's competitiveness. The company decides how to boost and maintain
employee engagement, and success necessitates the right balance of time, effort, dedication,
and funds. Maintaining a positive environment and mental health during a global economic
crisis makes it even more crucial for employees to interact with their peers. Employees that
are engaged are eager to put in more effort and care about the company's future. They have
a strong emotional connection to the company where they work, which improves employee
retention, productivity, and absenteeism. Effective employee engagement can be directly
linked to particular desired business outcomes by job type and workgroup when it is properly
tracked. In this sense, the Q12 survey can be used to determine how involved employees are
in a company. Q12 can help employees learn and improve. If given the opportunity to grow
and learn at work, employees are twice as likely to say they want to stay with their employer
for the rest of their careers. Therefore, rather than being a process, Q12 is an ongoing process
of learning, development, assessment, and action designed to engage hearts and minds. It
has to do with employee engagement, which is the most valuable asset of a company, a
significant contributor to overall performance, and an essential component of creating a
sustained competitive edge in the business environment of the sector.
Because the study only included workers who had been employed at Banani Trading House
for more than a year, there is a research gap. Future studies can be conducted for other RMG
Supply Chain-related businesses that are concerned with employee engagement and
motivation.
Throughout the study, several issues came to light. There were several difficulties throughout
the entire investigation. One of the biggest challenges encountered in the preparation of this
study was the sensitivity of the material, which made some management personnel hesitant
to submit thorough data. Additionally, because the survey was conducted in a factory,
interviewing respondents proved difficult because they were reluctant to participate during
peak hours. The survey results were also erroneous since many respondents were reluctant
to publicly disagree with management.

Recommendations
In order to increase employee engagement, top management should actively
participate in the survey and support it in any way they can. Every employee should
be informed of the survey's specific goal in order to ensure its effectiveness.
Management must be motivated to carry out corrective actions in addition to having
the necessary tools and skills. To avoid misunderstandings during the implementation
phase, employees at various levels must be informed of the findings and the action
plans. Accurately tracking impact tactics requires frequent use of the Engagement
Workbook.
Feedback and regular communication with superiors are crucial. Workers need to be
able to communicate effectively with each other. Maintaining professional relationships
with peers, superiors, and subordinates is crucial views regarding the company's
culture and values. The group requires a more thorough comprehension of the vision,
mission, purpose, and objectives of the Banani Trade. Employees need more
coordination and cooperation between teams and groups. Employees should be
recognized and awarded based on their performance. To foster a positive work
environment, employees must establish fruitful relationships. Workers should be able
to participate in significant decision-making processes and express their opinions on a
range of subjects.

Appendix
Evaluation of Employee Engagement and Employee
Motivation Questionnaire
On Banani Trading House
Employee motivation, which leads to better overall performance in an organization,
depends heavily on employee engagement (Jaiswal et al., 2017). The purpose of the
questionnaire is to find out how employee engagement affects their desire to improve
in their roles. The survey will reveal the importance of employee involvement in a
company. While performing their roles, individuals use their bodies, minds, and
emotions to express themselves (Anitha, 2014). Thus, the level of commitment and
participation an employee has with their company and its values is called employee
engagement. Employee motivation refers to the internal drive to either perform or
avoid work-related tasks (Wikipedia Contributors, 2019). The survey study will find
out how Banani Trade’s staff and employees think about the employee engagement
on employee motivation.
To the best of our knowledge, answering the questionnaire and participating in the
research carry no more risks than what you might face in your everyday life. No
question requires a response. Your job status will not be affected by your choice to
participate or not in the survey. Respondents will stay anonymous, and all information
will be treated with confidentiality. All information is gathered and will be used only
for research purposes.
