1.2 Introduction of organization
WorldLink Communications is the largest internet and network service provider in Nepal and one of
the most prominent IT companies. It is the largest ISP after state owned company NTC. WorldLink
was founded in September 1995 with the aim of providing internet and IT services by its present
Chairman and Managing Director, Mr. Dileep Agrawal. The head office is located at Jawalakhel,
Lalitpur. WorldLink started off by providing store-and-forward email services over a dial-up link to
the internet in the US. In March 1997, WorldLink started providing full internet access over a
dedicated leased-line to the internet backbone in the US through Teleglobe International, From
September 1999 till June 2008, WorldLink has been connecting to the internet over a direct satellite
uplink through its own VSAT terminal, thereby completely bypassing Nepal Telecommunications
Corporation.
The vision of this organization is To connect everyone, anywhere, all the time" and its mission is to
Enrich the lives of customers through world-class service.
The WorldLink has partnership with many renowned international network organizations like
CISCO, Akamai, Tainet Communication System Cooperation, and Speedtest.net by Ookla etc.
Similarly, this organization is a lifetime member of CAN and founding member of ISPAN and
presently heads the organization as its president. It has also membership with the FNCCI and APNIC.
1.3 Current Situation of WorldLink
At present WorldLink owns its own leased fiber backbone and buys IP bandwidth from various IP
transit locations of the world at Mumbai, Chennai, Singapore and London interconnecting with
various service providers like TATA, Cognet, Airtel etc.
Over the past 22 years, WorldLink has grown from a small business to a strong and stable corporation
with professional staff and a strong customer base. WorldLink is serving around 22 thousand active
consumers and out of 75 districts in Nepal, it has coverage in 63 of them. The company has also
provided services to the corporate houses, insurance company, banks. This organization has been
satisfying the customers at a great extent. The WorldLink has now become one of the largest ISP in
Nepal.
1.4 Issues and Problems
During the preparation of report various problems and issues were encountered as it was difficult to
be fully involved with the organization for short duration of time and sufficient samples couldnt be
formed due to busy schedules of the employees. Some of the major problems and difficulties which
I have faced during preparation of report were:
2
1.5 Objective of report
The major objective for the preparation of this report is to know how satisfied are the employees with
their job and facilities provided by organization to them. Similarly, the preparation of this report is

There are two sources of data collection techniques for the research that have been used in this
research they are:
3
a. Primary source
The primary source data are the fresh data collected from effort of researchers. To collect
the primary source of data survey was conducted among the employees to gather the
statistical data. For the report I have used the questionnaires as the source of primary
data. The questionnaires were distributed to employees and it is based on the response of
employees to the questions. Some sample of questionnaires used in report are:
What health and safety measures does your company apply?
How your company provides recreation and refreshment facilities?
b. Secondary Source
Secondary data is data that is being reused. The secondary data is the data that has been
already collected and available from other sources. For the collection of secondary data
for this report I have used the articles related to WorldLink Communications, brochure
and website of WorldLink Communications and internet. Similarly, I have also referred
to book entitled Human resource management in Nepal written by Govinda Ram
Agrawal for secondary source of data.
In the analysis section, firstly, the collected data from the questionnaire are divided according to their
nature. Various tools and techniques of analyzing the data can be used for the report. Some of the

office trips whereas only 6% of the sample has chosen the social and cultural program.
From all these, we can find that this organization has considered about providing the recreation and

assignment of challenging work. Only 8% of the total sample has fall under this factor.
Hence, it can be interpreted or found that the majority of employees working in the WorldLink are

The purpose of this project work was to know about the satisfaction level of employees working in
the WorldLink Communications Pvt.Ltd. WorldLink has been providing the internet service facility
and cable TV in Nepal for around 22 years covering about 63 districts. In this report I have studied
about how satisfied are the employees with the facilities and their job in the organization. The study
was carried out by considering the physical, psychological and environmental factors on job

Employees are seemed to be overall satisfied with the organization.
Organization has thought about the development of employees knowledge skill and abilities.
There seems to be a healthy relation with the lower and top level management.
The employees are seemed to be satisfied with the recreation and refreshment facilities.
But, there are some fields where the organization need to maintain better focus so as to gain hundred

Communication Pvt.Ltd. This is helpful for the smooth operation of day to day activities.

After the completion of the study and research about the Satisfaction level of employees at WorldLink
Communications there seems to be having some problems regarding the hundred percent satisfaction

Friendly and suitable working environment should be provided to employees
Management should provide more opportunities for promotion and development of the sill
and abilities of employees.
