EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
During these 8 weeks I conducted a survey on Job Satisfaction. For this, I chose
a random sample of 20 employees. Questionnaires were filled up by the
employees. The questions were regarding various aspects of job that directly
influence one’s satisfaction level. All the respondents were very cooperative
while filling the questionnaires.
Meanwhile I learnt a lot about the policies and procedures of the Personnel
Department. Ms. Kamakshi Saxena was always there to guide and helped in
shaping the project. She told about the various HR Policies and functioning of
the Personnel Department.
Last few days were spent in analysing the results and preparing the final project
report. At the completion of the tenure, Job Satisfaction level of the employees
of the Hotel Sheraton Rajputana Palace was successfully studied.

JOB SATISFACTION
Job Satisfaction has been defined as a pleasurable emotional state resulting from
the appraisal of one’s job, an affective reaction to one’s job and an attitude
towards one’s job.
For the organization, job satisfaction of its workers means a work force that is
motivated and committed to high quality performance. Tangible ways in which
job satisfaction benefits the organization include reduction in complaints and
grievances, absenteeism, turnover, and termination; as well as improved
punctuality and worker morale.
Job Satisfaction describes how content an individual is with his or her job. 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 with methods including
job rotation, job enlargement and job enrichment. Other influences on
satisfaction include the management the management style and culture,
employee involvement, empowerment and autonomous work groups. Job
27
satisfaction is a very important attribute which is frequently measured by
organisations.
• Work itself
• Pay structure
• Advancement Opportunities
• Supervision
• Co-Workers
• Environment
• Training
• Compensation and Benefits
MODELS OF JOB
SATISFACTION
• Affect Theory: According to this theory satisfaction is determined by a
discrepancy between what one wants in a job and what one has in a job.
Further, the theory states that how much one values a given facet of work.
When a person values a particular facet of a job, his/her satisfaction is greatly
impacted more positively (when expectations are met) or negatively (when
expectations are not met), compared to one who does not value that facet.
• Two Factor Theory: Fredrick Herzberg’s Two Factor Theory also known as
Motivator Hygiene theory attempts to explain satisfaction and motivation in
workplace. This theory states that satisfaction and dissatisfaction are driven by
different factors- motivation and hygiene, respectively. Motivating factors are
those aspects of the job that make people want to perform, and provide people
with satisfaction. These factors are considered to be intrinsic to the job, or the
work carried out. Hygiene factors include aspects of the working environment
28
such as pay, company policies, supervisory practices and other working
conditions.
OBJECTIVE OF STUDY
• To focus on the diverse personal goals which workers hope to satisfy in the
workplace, determine whether issues like feedback, influence their levels of
satisfaction and involvement as also the need for an employee to be satisfied
and motivated to perform well and focus on job characteristics that bring out the
best in workers.
29
SCOPE AND SIGNIFICANCE OF
STUDY
This project is related to the level of job satisfaction of the employees of the
organization. This survey has significance as it is altogether based upon an
essential aspect of one’s job. The respondents were the employees of Hotel
Sheraton Rajputana, Jaipur. This study figures out the factors that satisfy an
employee from the job point of view. Every individual is different from all others
and so are their responses. Although the organization is fully equipped with
favourable work environment, there are differences in their responses.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Research in simple term means ‘a search for knowledge’. It can also be defined
as “a scientific and systematic search for pertinent information on a specific
topic”.
OR
Research Design:
31
Sample Size: Sample size taken for this study of Job Satisfaction was 20
employees representing the same population.
Methodology:
LIMITATION OF STUDY
The study is to a certain extent limited by the vastness of the area and the
availability of time. Job satisfaction is an extensive subject and detailed work
should have been carried out in the area.
While sincere efforts have been made to examine the issue from different
perspectives the availability of more time would have possibly thrown up more
32
perspectives and larger primary information sample leading to more accurate
analysis and qualitatively superior solutions.

CONCLUSION AND
SUGGESTIONS
Most important factor to study job satisfaction level of an employee is the time
duration that has been spent in the organisation. Most of the employees here are
serving from last 6-7 years.
51
The educational qualification of the employees match with the work they have
been allotted. As far as the co- ordination is concerned, employees have a good
level of co- ordination with their superior, co- workers and also with the other
departments. Employees are satisfied with the periodical advice and feedback
provided by their boss which eases the job to some extent.
Reasonably large number of employees find the working conditions in the hotel
good and comfortable. They are satisfied with the jobs they are allotted but
large number of employees is not satisfied with the compensation or the salary
they are getting for the job done.
Along with the job, employees are getting time for their personal life and family
also so they are able maintain a balance between their work and personal life.
• Salary and compensation are the basic motivational tools. So, it should be in
accordance with the job one is performing. Company should maintain a
satisfactory level of salary. It would help in increased output from the
employee’s side as monetary rewards always attract.
52
In turn the communication gap would be reduced and the motivation level would
also increase.
