A STUDY ON EMPLOYEE JOB SATISFACTION

INTRODUCTION
Job satisfaction describes how content an individual is with his or her job. It is a
relatively recent term since in previous centuries the jobs available to a particular person were
often predetermined by the occupation of that person’s parent. There are a variety of factors that
can influence a person’s level of job satisfaction. Some of these factors include the level of pay
and benefits, the perceived fairness o the promotion system within a company, the quality of the
working conditions, leadership and social relationships, the job itself (the variety of tasks
involved, the interest and challenge the job generates, and the clarity of the job
description/requirements).
The happier people are within their job, the more satisfied they are said to be. Job
satisfaction is not the same as motivation, although it is clearly linked. Job design aims to
enhance job satisfaction and performance methods include job rotation, job enlargement and job
enrichment. Other influences on satisfaction include the management style and culture, employee
involvement, empowerment and autonomous workgroups. Job satisfaction is a very important
attribute which is frequently measured by organizations. The most common way of measurement
is the use of rating scales where employees report their reactions to their jobs. Questions relate to
relate of pay, work responsibilities, variety of tasks, promotional opportunities the work itself
and co-workers. Some questionnaires ask yes or no questions while others ask to rate satisfaction
on 1 – 5 scale 9where 1represents “not all satisfied” and 5 represents “extremely satisfied”).
