A PRESENTATION ON JOB
SATISFACTION
WHAT IS JOB SATISFACTION?
71 % of the Indian
employees surveyed are
satisfied with their jobs.
Nature of Work :-
There is a strong correspondence between how well
people enjoy the social context of their workplace
and how satisfied they are overall.
“Employees are more satisfied when they feel they are rewarded
fairly for the work they do,” notes the National Business Research
Institute. An institute survey of more than 15,000 workers found that
employees who feel they are rewarded fairly experience less job-related
stress. Rewards don’t mean compensation alone, however. Health
insurance, dental insurance, vacation time and retirement plans also fall
into this category.
Opportunities :-
Workers want to be able to use their skills and abilities in a way that
contributes to the organization, says the Society for Human Resource
Management. In addition to promotional opportunities, workers also
want to be challenged on the job.
Supervision :-
Job Security :-
Employees enjoy their work more when they aren’t worried about
losing their jobs. In the SHRM survey, employees of mid-sized and
large businesses placed more weight on job security as a job-
satisfaction factor than workers at small companies did.
What are the benefits of Job
Satisfaction?
Job Satisfaction and Productivity:- An employee who is a
poor performer will get fewer rewards and will be less satisfied
with his job experience and an employee who is good performer
will get more rewards and will be more satisfied.
Care also needs to be taken as there are also numerous ill fitting theories and
measurements which can harm our understanding of job satisfaction. It is also
important to be aware on how job satisfaction impacts on worker health and
productivity, which is explored further in the Job satisfaction: evidence for impact
on reducing psychosocial risks article.
