This proposed study is being limited to LIBERTY SHOES LTD, Karnal. This proposed study will help to find the impact of Emotional Intelligence on Job Satisfaction

The research carried out here is descriptive in nature

Descriptive research provides data about the population or universe being studied

It can describe 5Ws,1H i.e. what, when, why, who, where, and how

The population of study is corporate office LIBERTY SHOES Ltd. And the sample size of 100 employees working in corporate office, LIBERTY Ltd. This study is based on convenience sampling for which areas of are limited to LIBERTY SHOES Ltd, Karnal

To collect primary data a survey will be conducted on Employee Satisfaction through a questionnaire, which will be filled by the employees of corporate Office. Various questions will be asked to gain maximum information from the respondents.

For secondary data I have referred journals, magazines and internet.

Scaling technique is used in this survey, for understanding the co-relation between emotional intelligence and job satisfaction and the answers of the respondents are elucidated by asking them to indicate their level of agreement on a given five point likert scale with values ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree).

In order to fulfill my first objective, following hypotheses is formed: H0-There is no correlation between job satisfaction and emotional intelligence. Ha-There is a correlation between job satisfaction and emotional intelligence

HYPOTHESIS Correlation value of Emotional Intelligence and Job Satisfaction is .851 Coefficient of deterioration=(r)2=(.851) 2

=75%

75% variability in job satisfaction is employed by emotional intelligence Now we check the probable error, P.E.=1-r2 /N =1-0.72/ 100 =0.28/10 =0.028 We know that, r<P.E.no correlation r>P.E.weak correlation r>6P.E.strong correlation. i.e. [0.85>0.168] Hence there is strong correlation.

r P.E. r=0.851,P.E.=0.028 0.8220.878 Hence correlation lies between this range. So at the end the researcher can say that null Hypothesis got rejected and alternative hypothesis may be accepted for the given respondents.

There is a strong correlation between emotional intelligence and job satisfaction. The value of correlation comes to be 0.85

Employees are satisfied to greater extent with the intrinsic benefits provided by the company like salary, benefits, amount and frequency of bonuses.

As the research is based on a sample, therefore findings may not reveal the factual information about the research problem, though an utmost care was taken to select the truly representative sample. Carrying this survey was a great learning experience but we faced some problems, which are listed as follows:

There is small sample size of the study due to organizational constraints. Many of the respondents will not give response that makes data collection vague to some extent. Generally the respondents were busy in their work and were not interested in responding rightly. Respondents were reluctant to disclose complete and correct information about themselves and the organization.
