JOB RELATED ATTITUDES Assessing employee attitudes about
their jobs is one of the major tasks of IO psychologist.
Among the most commonly studied job related attitudes are job satisfaction and organizational commitment.

JOB SATISFACTION Job satisfaction consists of the
positive and negative feelings and attitudes about one’s job.The global approach views job
satisfaction as an overall construct.The facet approach views job satisfaction
as made up of individual elements, or facets.

JOB SATISFACTION AND COMMITMENT
Job satisfaction and commitment are multifaceted.
Examples of job satisfaction facets are pay, supervision, coworkers, promotion, work facility, worksite, work policy etc
An employee may be satisfied with one facet, (such as pay) but not another ( such as work facility).
![Page 5: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
JOB RELATED ATTITUDES Although 2 different constructs, job
satisfaction and organizational commitment are highly correlated and result in similar employee behaviours.
In general, satisfied employees show positive behaviours.

SATISFACTION & ORG. COMMITMENT
Meta analyses show that satisfied employees tend to be :
committed to the organization, and thus less likely to be absent;
stay with the organization , punctual, engage in helpful behaviours
etc.

IS IT TRUE THAT THE “HAPPY WORKERS ARE
PRODUCTIVE WORKERS?”
![Page 8: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
JOB SATISFACTION AND PERFORMANCE
The relationship between job satisfaction and performance is not consistent across people or jobs.
E.g: For complex jobs, there is a strong relationship between job satisfaction and performance, than jobs of low or medium complexity .
![Page 9: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
JOB SATISFACTION AND JOB PERFORMANCE
Meta-analyses indicate a moderate correlation between job satisfaction and performance (Judge et al., 2001).
The Porter-Lawler model (1968) states that job satisfaction and performance are not directly linked, but are related when workers perceive fairness in receipt of work-related rewards.

ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT
Organizational commitment consists of a worker’s feelings and attitudes about the entire work organization.
![Page 12: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT There are three motivational facets to
organizational commitment ( Meyer and Allen, 1997):Affective commitmentContinuance commitmentNormative commitment
( Read Aamodt, 2010 for details )
![Page 13: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
AFFECTIVE COMMITMENT Affective commitment is the extent to
which an employee wants to remain with the organization, cares about the organization and is willing to exert effort for the organization.
![Page 14: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
CONTINUANCE COMMITMENT Continuance commitment is the extent to
which the employee believes s/he must remain with the organization due the time, expenses and effort that has been pun into it.
Continuance commitment is also due to the difficulties in finding another job.
![Page 15: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
NORMATIVE COMMITMENTNormative commitment:
The extent the employee feel obliged to the organization, and thus feels that s/he must remain with the organization.

WHAT CAUSES EMPLOYEES TO BE SATISFIED WITH AND COMMITTED TO THEIR JOBS?
![Page 17: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES IN EMPLOYEE SATISFACTION
Important FindingsConsistency across jobsConsistency across timeRelationship between life
satisfaction and job satisfaction Due to:
Genetic predispositionsCore self-evaluations
self-esteem self-efficacy internal locus of control optimism/positive affectivity
![Page 20: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES AND JOB SATISFACTION Personal predisposition to satisfied or
dissatisfied may be one of the reasons of job satisfaction.
Individual difference theory posits that job satisfaction variation is due to the personal tendencies to enjoy/not to enjoy jobs.
Utilising Individual difference theory , satisfaction across jobs is consistent.
![Page 21: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

GENETIC PREDISPOSITION Genetic predisposition (30%), a study by
Arvey et. al.1989, 1994), due to the presence of inherited personality traits such as “negative affectivity”.
Genetic predisposition studies are controversial and received lots of criticism
![Page 23: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
CORE SELF EVALUATIONS A series of personality variables seem to be
related to job satisfaction, meaning that some type of personalities have tendency to be satisfied or dissatisfied with their jobs.
Judge, Locke and Durham ( 1997) hypothesized that four ( 4) personality variables are likely to be satisfied with their jobs ( and their lives).
![Page 24: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

OTHERS: CULTURE AND INTELLIGENCE ETC
Culture plays great role
Intelligence…and if you are too “ smart”, you won’t be hired.
What about gender?, Race? Age?

What are the other antecedents of job
satisfaction?
![Page 29: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

SATISFACTION WITH OTHER ASPECTS OF LIFE
A number of researchers theorize that job satisfaction is consistent across time AND also to the extent which a person is satisfied with all other aspects of life.
People who are satisfied with their jobs tend to be satisfied with life; thus supports the theory that job satisfaction is significantly correlated with life satisfaction. Vice versa. A very important finding.
Fancy using “John Travolta method”?
![Page 31: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
JOB EXPECTATIONS AND SATISFACTION ETC When job expectations are not being met, job
satisfaction is low and employees have the intentions to leave the jobs; consistent with discrepancy theories.
Meta-analysis by Wanous, Poland, Premack and Davis (1992) conclude that when employees’ expectations are not met, the result is lower job satisfaction, decrease in organizational commitment and increased intent to leave the organization.
![Page 32: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
JOB EXPECTATIONS AND SATISFACTION ETC On the contrary, Irving and Meyer (1994)
found most employees’ experiences on the job are most related to job satisfaction. The difference between their expectations and their experiences was only MINIMAL LY related to job satisfaction.
![Page 33: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
OTHER ANTECEDENTS OF JOB SATISFACTION ARE:
Good Job-organization fit Job facets Fairness and equity Opportunities for challenge and growth
Job rotation, job enlargement and job enlargement

MEASURING JOB SATISFACTION Job satisfaction can be assessed by asking
how employees feel about their job, either by using questionnaire or interview.
The most widely used self-report measures are the Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire (MSQ) and the Job Descriptive Index (JDI).
The MSQ measures satisfaction with 20 job facets, including supervisor competence, working conditions, task variety, and chances for advancement.
The JDI measures satisfaction with five job facets: the job itself, supervision, pay, promotions, and coworkers.

FINANCIAL SAVINGS FROM TURNOVER REDUCTION
Last Year 5 employees leave
each month (60 per year)
Average salary is $20,000
Cost of turnover is 60 * $20,000 * 1.5 = $1,800,000
This Year 4 employees leave
each month (48 per year)
Average salary is $20,000
Cost of turnover is 48 * $20,000 * 1.5 = $1,440,000
$360,000 saved through reduced turnover

SATISFACTION, COMMITMENT, ABSENTEEISM, TURNOVER AND PROGRAMMES THAT CAN BE IMPLEMENTED : ADDITIONAL NOTES
![Page 79: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
JOB SATISFACTION, ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT, AND EMPLOYEE ATTENDANCE
Voluntary absenteeism is when employees miss work because they want to do something else (i.e., not because they are ill or unable to work).
Involuntary absenteeism occurs when employees have a legitimate excuse for missing work–typically illness.
Involuntary absenteeism is inevitable; organizations can try to eliminate voluntary absenteeism, but this is difficult because it is difficult to distinguish between voluntary and involuntary absences.
![Page 80: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
JOB SATISFACTION, ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT, AND EMPLOYEE ATTENDANCE Turnover can also be categorized as
voluntary or involuntary. Involuntary turnover occurs when an
employee is fired or laid off. Voluntary turnover occurs when
competent and capable employees leave to work elsewhere.
Meta-analyses (Griffeth et al., 2000) indicate that low job satisfaction and low organizational commitment are related to higher turnover.
![Page 81: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
JOB SATISFACTION, ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT, AND EMPLOYEE ATTENDANCE
A strong predictor of employee turnover is absenteeism, particularly the rate of absences immediately before the employee leaves.
Turnover intentions refers to workers’ self-reported intentions to leave their jobs.
Voluntary turnover is costly, and research indicates that employees who feel they are not treated fairly are more likely to leave an organization (Griffeth and Gaertner, 2001).

INCREASING JOB SATISFACTION AND ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT Changes in job structure can be used to
increase satisfaction and commitment. Job rotation is the systematic movement
of workers from one type of task to another to alleviate boredom and enhance worker training.
Job enlargement involves the expansion of a job to include additional and more varied work tasks.
Job enrichment involves raising the level of responsibility of a job by allowing workers a greater voice in planning, execution, and evaluation of their own work activities.
![Page 83: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
INCREASING JOB SATISFACTION AND ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT
Changes in pay structure can be used to increase satisfaction and commitment.
Skill-based pay is compensation in which workers are paid based on their knowledge and skills rather than their organizational positions.
Merit pay is compensation in which employees receive a base rate and additional pay based on performance.
Gainsharing is compensation based on effective group performance.
Profit-sharing is a plan where all employees receive a small share of an organization’s profits.
![Page 84: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
INCREASING JOB SATISFACTION AND ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT
Flexible work schedules can be used to increase satisfaction and commitment.
Compressed work weeks are schedules that decrease the number of days in the workweek while increasing number of hours worked per day.
Flextime is a schedule that commits an employee to working a specified number of hours, but offers flexibility in regard to beginning and ending times for each day.
![Page 85: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)
INCREASING JOB SATISFACTION AND ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT
Benefits programs are perhaps the most common way for employers to increase employees’ job satisfaction and commitment.
Benefit programs can include flexible working hours, a variety of health care options, retirement plans, career development, health promotion programs, and employee-sponsored childcare.
On-site child care programs increase job satisfaction, but have little effect on employee absenteeism (Goff et al., 1990).
![Page 86: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
POSITIVE EMPLOYEE ATTITUDES AND BEHAVIORS
Organizational citizenship behaviors (OCBs) involve efforts by organizational members that advance or promote the work organization and its goals.
OCBs are positively correlated with both job satisfaction and organizational commitment (Podsakoff et al., 2000).
Employees who engage in OCBs are less likely to leave the organization and have lower voluntary absenteeism (Chen et al., 1998; Lee et al., 2004).
![Page 87: JOB RELATED ATTITUDES](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815b6e550346895dc9660e/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)

POSITIVE EMPLOYEE ATTITUDES AND BEHAVIORS
Recently, there has been an explosion of research examining the role of positive affect (positive emotions that affect mood in the workplace) in affecting job satisfaction and positive employee behaviors.
Dispositional (traitlike) positive affect is linked to higher job satisfaction and performance, and lower absenteeism and turnover (Pelled and Xin, 1999).
Emotionally positive workers are more likely to engage in OCBs than emotionally negative workers (Bachrach and Jex, 2000).
