Employee Involvement Employee involvement is creating an environment in which

people have an impact on decisions and actions that affect their

jobs.

Employee involvement is not the goal nor is it a tool, as

practiced in many organizations. Rather, it is a management

and leadership philosophy about how people are most enabled

to contribute to continuous improvement and the ongoing

success of their work organization.
