      Findings: The findings indicate that job embeddedness has a positive effect on employee performance, and that contentment experience and mattering have a significant impact on employee sustainable performance.

      Research, Practical & Social Implication: It provides the necessary understanding of how job embeddedness is related to employee sustainability performance and how to create an environment that fosters employee contentment, thereby leading to better performance.
