INTRODUCTION
Job satisfaction is not the same as motivation. It is more if an attitude,
an internal state of the person concerned. It could, for example, be associated with a personal
feeling of achievement
Job satisfaction is an individuals emotional reaction to the job itself. It is
his attitude towards his job.
DEFINITIONS:Job satisfaction does not seem to reduce absence, turnover and perhaps accident rates.
-Robert L. Kahn
Job satisfaction is a general attitude towards ones job: the difference between the amount
of reward workers receive and the amount they believe they should receive.
-P. Robbins
Job satisfaction defines as The amount of overall positive affect (or feeling) that individuals
have toward their jobs.
-Hugh J. Arnold and Daniel C. Feldman
Job satisfaction is the amount of pleasure or contentment associated with a job. If you like
your job intensely, you will experience high job satisfaction. If you dislike your job intensely,
you will experience job dissatisfaction. By Andrew J DuBrins, The practice of
supervision, New Delhi Job satisfaction is one part of life satisfaction. The environment
influences the job. Similarly, since a job is important part of life, job satisfaction influences
ones general life satisfaction. Manager may need to monitor not only the job and immediate
work environment but also their employees attitudes towards other part of life.

RELATED ELEMENT OF LIFE SATISFACTION
JOB FAMILY
POLITICS LIFE LEISURE
Human life has become very complex and completed in now-a-days. In modern society the
needs and requirements of the people are ever increasing and ever changing. When the people
are ever increasing and ever changing, when the peoples needs are not fulfilled they become
dissatisfied. Dissatisfied people are likely to contribute very little for any purpose. Job
satisfaction of industrial workers us very important for the industry to function successfully.
Apart from managerial and technical aspects, employers can be considered as backbone of
any industrial development. To utilize their contribution they should be provided with good
working conditions to boost their job satisfaction. Any business can achieve success and
peace only when the problem of satisfaction and dissatisfaction of workers are felt
understood and solved, problem of efficiency absenteeism labour turnover require a social
skill of understanding human problems and dealing with them scientific investigation serves
the purpose to solve the human problems in the industry.

PAY
Wages do play a significant role in determining of satisfaction. Pay is instrumental in
fulfilling so many needs. Money facilities the obtaining of food, shelter, and clothing and
provides the means to enjoy valued leisure interest outside of work. More over, pay can serve
as symbol of achievement and a source of recognition. Employees often see pay as a
reflection of organization. Fringe benefits have not been found to have strong influence on
job satisfaction as direct wages.
THE WORK ITSELF
Along with pay, the content of the work itself plays a very major role in determining how
satisfied employees are with their jobs. By and large, workers want jobs that are challenging;
they do want to be doing mindless jobs day after day. The two most important aspect of the
work itself that influence job satisfaction are variety and control over work methods and work
place. In general, job with a moderate amount of variety produce the most job satisfaction.
Jobs with too little variety cause workers to feel bored and fatigue. Jobs with too much
variety and stimulation cause workers to feel psychologically stressed and burnout.
PROMOTION
Promotional opportunities have a moderate impact on job satisfaction. A promotion to a
higher level in an organization typically involves positive changes I supervision, job content
and pay. Jobs that are at the higher level of an organization usually provide workers with
more freedom, more challenging work assignments and high salary.
SUPERVISION
Two dimensions of supervisor style:
1. Employee centered or consideration supervisors who establish a supportive personalrelationship with subordinates and take a personal interest in them.
2. The other dimension of supervisory style influence participation in decision making,
employee who participates in decision that affect their job, display a much higher level of
satisfaction with supervisor an the overall work situation.

WORK GROUP
Having friendly and co-operative co-workers is a modest source of job satisfaction to
individual employees. The working groups also serve as a social support system of
employees. People often used their co-workers as sounding board for their problem of as a
source of comfort.
WORK CONDITION
The employees desire good working condition because they lead to greater physical comfort.
The working conditions are important to employees because they can influence life outside of
work. If people are require to work long hours and / or overtime, they will have very little felt
for their families, friends and recreation outside work.
DETERMINANTS OF JOB SATISFACTION:
While analyzing the various determinants of job satisfaction, we have to keep in mind that:
all individuals do no derive the same degree of satisfaction though they perform the same jobin the same job environment and at the same time. Therefore, it appears that besides the
nature of job and job environment, there are individual variables which affect job satisfaction.
Thus, all those factors which provide a fit among individual variables, nature of job, and
situational variables determine the degree of job satisfaction. Let us see what these factors
are.
-
5/20/2018 Job satisfaction of automobile employees
21/76
Page 21of 76
INDIVIDUAL FACTORS:
Individuals have certain expectations from their jobs. If their expectations are met from the
jobs, they feel satisfied. These expectations are based on an individuals level of education,
age and other factors.
LEVEL OF EDUCATION:
Level of education of an individual is a factor which determines the degree of job
satisfaction. For example, several studies have found negative correlation between the level
of education, particularly higher level of education, and job satisfaction. The possible reason
for this phenomenon may be that highly educated persons have very high expectations from
their jobs which remain unsatisfied. In their case, Peters principle which suggests that every
individual tries to reach his level of incompetence, applies more quickly .
AGE:
Individuals experience different degree of job satisfaction at different stages of their life. Job
satisfaction is high at the initial stage, gets gradually reduced, starts rising upto certain stage,
and finally dips to a low degree. The possible reasons for this phenomenon are like this.
When individuals join an organization, they may have some unrealistic assumptions about
what they are going to drive from their work. These assumptions make them more satisfied.
However, when these assumptions fall short of reality, job satisfaction goes down. It starts
rising again as the people start to assess the jobs in right perspective and correct their
assumptions. At the last, particularly at the fag end of the career, job satisfaction goes down
because of fear of retirement and future outcome.
OTHER FACTORS:
Besides the above two factors, there are other individual factors which affect job satisfaction.
If an individual does not have favourable social and family life, he may not feel happy at the
workplace. Similarly, other personal problems associated with him may affect his level of job
satisfaction. Personal problems associated with him may affect his level of job satisfaction.

Page 22of 76
NATURE OF JOB:
Nature of job determines job satisfaction which is in the form of occupation level and job
content.
OCCUPATION LEVEL:
Higher level jobs provide more satisfaction as compared to lower levels. This happens
because high level jobs carry prestige and status in the society which itself becomes source of
satisfaction for the job holders.
For example, professionals derive more satisfaction as compared to salaried people: factory
workers are least satisfied.
JOB CONTENT:
Job content refers to the intrinsic value of the job which depends on the requirement of skills
for performing it, and the degree of responsibility and growth it offers. A higher content of
these factors provides higher satisfaction. For example, a routine and repetitive lesser
satisfaction; the degree of satisfaction progressively increases in job rotation, job
enlargement, and job enrichment.
SITUATIONAL VARIABLES:
Situational variables related to job satisfaction lie in organizational context formal and
informal. Formal organization emerges out of the interaction of individuals in the
organization. Some of the important factors which affect job important factors which affect
job satisfaction are given below:
1. Working conditions:
Working conditions, particularly physical work environment, like conditions of workplace
and associated facilities for performing the job determine job satisfaction. These work in two
ways. First, these provide means job performance. Second, provision of these conditions
-

23/76
Page 23of 76
affects the individuals perception about the organization. If these factors are favourable,
individuals experience higher level of job satisfaction.
2. Supervision:
The type of supervision affects job satisfaction as in each type of supervision; the degree of
importance attached to individuals varies. In employee-oriented supervision, there is more
concern for people which is perceived favourably by them and provides them more
satisfaction. In job oriented supervision, there is more emphasis on the performance of the job
and people become secondary. This situation decreases job satisfaction
.
3. Equitable rewards:
The type of linkage that is provided between job performance and rewards determines thedegree of job satisfaction. If the reward is perceived to be based on the job performance and
equitable, it offers higher satisfaction. If the reward is perceived to be based on
considerations other than the job performance, it affects job satisfaction adversely.
4. Opportunity:
It is true that individuals seek satisfaction in their jobs in the context of job nature and work
environment by they also attach importance to opportunities for promotion that these job
offer. If the present job offers opportunity of promotion is lacking, it reduces satisfaction .
1. Work group: Individuals work in group either created formally of they develop on
their own to seek emotional satisfaction at the workplace. To the extent such groups
are cohesive; the degree of satisfaction is high. If the group is not cohesive, job
satisfaction is low. In a cohesive group, people derive satisfaction out of their
interpersonal interaction and workplace becomes satisfying leading to job satisfaction .

EFFECT OF JOB SATISFACTION
Job satisfaction has a variety of effects. These effects may be seen in the context of an
individuals physical and mental health, productivity, absenteeism, and turnover.
Physical and Mental Health:
The degree of job satisfaction affects an individuals physical and mental
health. Since job satisfaction is a type of mental feeling, its favorableness or
unfavourablesness affects the individual psychologically which ultimately affects his physical
health.
For example, Lawler has pointed out that drug abuse, alcoholism and mental and physical
health result from psychologically harmful jobs. Further, since a job is an important part of
life, job satisfaction influences general life satisfaction. The result is that there is spillover
effect which occurs in both directions between job and life satisfaction.
Productivity:
There are two views about the relationship between job satisfaction and productivity:
1. A happy worker is a productive worker,
2. A happy worker is not necessarily a productive worker.
The first view establishes a direct cause-effect relationship between job satisfaction and
productivity; when job satisfaction increases, productivity increases; when satisfaction
decreases, productivity decreases. The basic logic behind this is that a happy worker will put
more efforts for job performance. However, this may not be true in all cases.
For example, a worker having low expectations from his jobs may feel satisfied but he may
not put his efforts more vigorously because of his low expectations from the job. Therefore,
this view does not explain fully the complex relationship between job satisfaction and
productivity.
-
5/20/2018 Job satisfaction of automobile employees
25/76
Page 25of 76
The another view: That is a satisfied worker is not necessarily a productive worker explains
the relationship between job satisfaction and productivity. Various research studies also
support this view.
This relationship may be explained in terms of the operation of two factors: effect of job
performance on satisfaction and organizational expectations from individuals for job
performance.
1. Job performance leads to job satisfaction and not the other way round. The basic factor for
this phenomenon is the rewards (a source of satisfaction) attached with performance. There
are two types of rewards intrinsic and extrinsic. The intrinsic reward stems from the job itself
which may be in the form of growth potential, challenging job, etc. The satisfaction on such a
type of reward may help to increase productivity. The extrinsic reward is subject to control by
management such as salary, bonus, etc. Any increase in these factors does not help to
increase productivity though these factors increase job satisfaction.
1. A happy worker does not necessarily contribute to higher productivity because he
has to operate under certain technological constraints and, therefore, he cannot go
beyond certain output. Further, this constraint affects the managements expectations
from the individual in the form of lower output. Thus, the work situation is pegged to
minimally acceptable level of performance. However, it does not mean that the job
satisfaction has no impact o productivity. A satisfied worker may not necessarilylead to increased productivity but a dissatisfied worker leads to lower productivity.
THE RELATION BETWEEN PERFORMANCE AND SATISFACTION
Absenteeism:
Absenteeism refers to the frequency of absence of job holder from the workplaceeither unexcused absence due to some avoidable reasons or long absence due to some
unavoidable reasons. It is the former type of absence which is a matter of concern. This
absence is due to lack of satisfaction from the job which produces a lack of will to work and
alienate a worker form work as for as possible. Thus, job satisfaction is related to
absenteeism.

TURNOVER AND ABSENCES
RELATIONSHIP OF JOB SATISFACTION, EMPLOYEE TURNOVER AND ABSENCES
Employee turnover:
Turnover of employees is the rate at which employees leave the organization within a given
period of time. When an individual feels dissatisfaction in the organization, he tries to
overcome this through the various ways of defense mechanism. If he is not able to do so, he
opts to leave the organization. Thus, in general case, employee turnover is related to job
satisfaction. However, job satisfaction is not the only cause of employee turnover, the othercause being better opportunity elsewhere.
For example, in the present context, the rate of turnover of computer software professionals is
very high in India. However, these professionals leave their organizations not simply because
they are not satisfied but because of the opportunities offered from other sources particularly
from foreign companies located abroad.

DIMENSIONS OF JOB SATIFACTION
Job satisfaction is a complex concept and difficult to measure objectively. The level of job
satisfaction is affected by a wide range of variables relating to individual, social, cultural,
organizational factors as stated below:-
DIMENSIONS
INDIVIDUAL SOCIAL ORGANIZATIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL CULTURAL
FACTORS FACTOR FACTOR FACTOR
Individual:- Personality, education, intelligence and abilities, age, marital status,
orientation to work.
Social factors:-Relationship with co-workers, group working and norms,
opportunities for interaction, informal relations etc.
Organizational factors:-Nature and size, formal structure, personnel policies and
procedures, industrial relation, nature of work, technology and work organization,
supervision and styles of leadership, management systems, working conditions.
Environmental factors:-Economic, social, technical and governmental influences.
Cultural factors:-Attitudes, beliefs and values.
These factors affect job satisfaction of certain individuals in a given set of circumstances
but not necessarily in others. Some workers may be satisfied with certain aspects of their
work and dissatisfied with other aspects .Thus, overall degree of job satisfaction may differ
from person to person.

IMPORTANCE TO STUDY JOB SATISFACTION
The importance to the study of job satisfaction level is very important for executives. Job
satisfaction study importance can be understood by the answer of the following question
Is there room for improvement?
Who is relatively more dissatisfied?
What contributes to the employee satisfaction?
What are the effects of negative employee attitudes?
Benefits of job satisfaction study
Job satisfaction surveys can produce positive, neutral or negative results. If planned properly
and administered, they will usually produce a number of important benefits, such as-
It gives management an indication of general levels of satisfaction in a company. Surveys
also indicate specific areas of satisfaction or dissatisfaction as compared to employee services
and particular group of employee.
It leads to valuable communication brought by a job satisfaction survey. Communication
flow in all direction as people plan the survey, take it and discuss the result. Upward
communication is especially fruitful when employees are encouraged to comment about what
is on their minds instead of merely answering questions about topics important to
management.
as a survey is safety value, an emotional release. A chance to things gets off. The survey is an
intangible expression of managements interest in employee welfare, which gives employees
a reason to feel better towards management.
Job satisfaction surveys are a useful way to determine certain training needs.
Job satisfaction surveys are useful for identifying problem that may arise, comparing the
response to several alternatives and encouraging manager to modify their original plans.
Follow up surveys allows management to evaluate the actual response to a change and study
its success or failure.

Importance to Worker and Organization
Frequently, work underlies self-esteem and identity while unemployment lowers self-worth
and producesanxiety.At the same time,monotonousjobs can erode a worker's initiative and
enthusiasm and can lead to absenteeism and unnecessary turnover. Job satisfaction and
occupational success are major factors in personal satisfaction, self-respect, self-esteem, and
self-development. To the worker, job satisfaction brings a pleasurable emotional state that
often leads to a positive work attitude. A satisfied worker is more likely to be creative,
flexible, innovative, and loyal.
For the organization, job satisfaction of its workers means a work force that is motivated and
committed to high quality performance. Increased productivity the quantity and quality of
output per hour worked seems to be a byproduct of improved quality of working life. It is
important to note that the literature on the relationship between job satisfaction and
productivity is neither conclusive nor consistent.. Unhappy employees, who are motivated by
fear of job loss, will not give 100 percent of their effort for very long. Though fear is a
powerful motivator, it is also a temporary one, and as soon as the threat is lifted performance
will decline.
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 is also linked to a more healthy work force
and has been found to be a good indicator of longevity.And although only little correlation
has been found between job satisfaction and productivity, Brown (1996) notes that some
employers have found that satisfying or delighting employees is aprerequisite to satisfying or
delighting customers, thus protecting the "bottom line." No wonder Andrew Carnegie is
quoted as saying: "Take away my people, but leave my factories, and soon grass will grow on
the factory floors. Take away my factories, but leave my people, and soon we will have a new
and better factory"

Creating Job Satisfaction
So, how is job satisfaction created? What are the elements of a job that create job
satisfaction? Organizations can help to create job satisfaction by putting systems in place that
will ensure that workers are challenged and then rewarded for being successful.
Organizations thataspire to creating a work environment that enhances job satisfaction need
to incorporate the following:
Flexible work arrangements, possibly including telecommuting
Training and other professional growth opportunities
Interesting work that offers variety and challenge and allows the worker opportunities to "put
his or her signature" on the finished product
Opportunities to use one's talents and to be creative
Opportunities to take responsibility and direct one's own work
A stable, secure work environment that includes job security/continuity
An environment in which workers are supported by an accessible supervisor who provides
timely feedback as well ascongenial team members
Flexible benefits, such as child-care and exercise facilities
Up-to-date technology
Competitive salary and opportunities for promotion
Probably the most important point to bear in mind when considering job satisfaction is that
there are many factors that affect job satisfaction and that what makes workers happy with
their jobs varies from one worker to another and from day to day. Apart from the factors
mentioned above, job satisfaction is also influenced by the employee's personal
characteristics, the manager's personal characteristics and management style, and the nature
of the work itself. Managers who want to maintain a high level of job satisfaction in the work
force must try to understand the needs of each member of the work force.
For example, when creating work teams, managers can enhance worker satisfaction by
placing people with similar backgrounds, experiences, or needs in the same workgroup. Also,
managers can enhance job satisfaction by carefully matching workers with the type of work.

For example, a person who does not pay attention to detail would hardly make a good
inspector, and a shy worker is unlikely to be a good salesperson. As much as possible,
managers should match job tasks to employees' personalities.
Managers who are serious about the job satisfaction of workers can also take other deliberate
steps to create a stimulating work environment. One such step is job enrichment. Job
enrichment is a deliberate upgrading of responsibility, scope, and challenge in the work itself.
Job enrichment usually includes increased responsibility, recognition, and opportunities for
growth, learning, and achievement. Large companies that have used job-enrichment programs
to increase employee motivation and job satisfaction.
Good management has the potential for creating high morale, high productivity, and a sense
of purpose and meaning for the organization and its employees. Empirical findings show that
job characteristics such as pay, promotional opportunity, task clarity and significance, and
skills utilization, as well as organizational characteristics such as commitment and
relationship with supervisors and co-workers, have significant effects on job satisfaction.
These job characteristics can be carefully managed to enhance job satisfaction.
Of course, a worker who takes some responsibility for his or her job satisfaction will
probably find many more satisfying elements in the work environment. Everett (1995)
suggests that employees ask themselves the following questions:
When have I come closest to expressing my full potential in a work situation?
What did it look like?
What aspects of theworkplace were most supportive?
What aspects of the work itself were most satisfying?
What did I learn from that experience that could be applied to the present situation?

WORKERS' JOB SATISFACTION
If job satisfaction is a worker benefit, surely the worker must be able to contribute to his or her own
satisfaction and well-being on the job. The following suggestions can help a worker find personal job
satisfaction:
Seek opportunities to demonstrate skills and talents. This often leads to more
challenging work and greater responsibilities, with attendant increases in pay and
other recognition.
Develop excellent communication skills. Employers value and reward excellent
reading, listening, writing, and speaking skills.
Know more. Acquire new job-related knowledge that helps you to perform tasks moreefficiently and effectively. This will relieveboredom and often gets one noticed.
Demonstrate creativity and initiative. Qualities like these are valued by most
organizations and often result in recognition as well as in increased responsibilities
and rewards.
Develop teamwork and people skills. A large part of job success is the ability to work
well with others to get the job done.
Accept the diversity in people. Accept people with their differences and their
imperfections and learn how to give and receive criticism constructively.
See the value in your work. Appreciating the significance of what one does can lead
to satisfaction with the work itself. This helps to give meaning to one's existence, thus
playing a vital role in job satisfaction.
Learn to de-stress. Plan to avoid burnout by developing healthy stress-management
techniques.

Assuring Job Satisfaction
Assuring job satisfaction, over the long-term, requires careful planning and effort both by
management and by workers. Managers are encouraged to consider such theories as
Herzbergs (1957) and Maslow's (1943) Creating a good blend of factors that contribute to a
stimulating, challenging, supportive, and rewarding work environment is vital. Because of the
relative prominence of pay in the reward system, it is very important that salaries be tied to
job responsibilities and that pay increases be tied to performance rather than seniority.
So, in essence, job satisfaction is a product of the events and conditions that people
experience on their jobs. Brief (1998) wrote: "If a person's work is interesting, her pay is fair,
her promotional opportunities are good, her supervisor is supportive, and her coworkers are
friendly, then a situational approach leads one to predict she is satisfied with her job" (p. 91).
Very simply put, if the pleasures associated with one's joboutweigh the pains, there is some
level of job satisfaction

MODEL OF JOB SATISFACTION

Page 36of 76
THEORIES OF JOB SATISFACTION
Affect Theory
Edwin A. Lockes Range of Affect Theory (1976) is arguably the most famous job
satisfaction model. The main premise of this theory is that 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 (e.g. the degree of autonomy in a
position) moderates how satisfied/dissatisfied one becomes when expectations are/arent met.
When a person values a particular facet of a job, his satisfaction is more greatly impacted
both positively (when expectations are met) and negatively (when expectations are not met),
compared to one who doesnt value that facet. To illustrate, if Employee A values autonomyin the workplace and Employee B is indifferent about autonomy, then Employee A would be
more satisfied in a position that offers a high degree of autonomy and less satisfied in a
position with little or no autonomy compared to Employee B. This theory also states that too
much of a particular facet will produce stronger feelings of dissatisfaction the more a worker
values that facet.
Dispositional Theory
Another well-known job satisfaction theory is the Dispositional Theory]. It is a very general
theory that suggests that people have innate dispositions that cause them to have tendencies
toward a certain level of satisfaction, regardless of ones job. This approach became a notable
explanation of job satisfaction in light of evidence that job satisfaction tends to be stable over
time and across careers and jobs. Research also indicates that identical twins have similar
levels of job satisfaction.
A significant model that narrowed the scope of the Dispositional Theory was the Core Self-
evaluations Model, proposed by Timothy A. Judge in 1998. Judge argued that there are four
Core Self-evaluations that determine ones disposition towards job satisfaction: self-esteem,
general self-efficacy, locus of control, and neuroticism. This model states that higher levels of
self-esteem (the value one places on his/her self) and general self-efficacy (the belief in ones
own competence) lead to higher work satisfaction. Having an internal locus of control
(believing one has control over her\his own life, as opposed to outside forces having control)
-

Page 37of 76
leads to higher job satisfaction. Finally, lower levels of neuroticism lead to higher job
satisfaction[].
Two-Factor Theory (Motivator-Hygiene Theory)
Frederick Herzbergs Two factor theory (also known as Motivator Hygiene Theory) attempts
to explain satisfaction and motivation in the workplace This theory states that satisfaction and
dissatisfaction are driven by different factors motivation and hygiene factors, respectively.
An employees motivation to work is continually related to job satisfaction of a subordinate.
Motivation can be seen as an inner force that drives individuals to attain personal and
organization goals (Hokinson, Porter, & Wrench, p.133). Motivating factors are those aspects
of the job that make people want to perform, and provide people with satisfaction, for
example achievement in work, recognition, promotion opportunities. These motivating
factors are considered to be intrinsic to the job, or the work carried out. Hygiene factors
include aspects of the working environment such as pay, company policies, supervisory
practices, and other working conditions
While Hertzberg's model has stimulated much research, researchers have been unable to
reliably empirically prove the model, with Hack man & Oldham suggesting that Hertzberg's
original formulation of the model may have been a methodological artifact. Furthermore, the
theory does not consider individual differences, conversely predicting all employees will
react in an identical manner to changes in motivating/hygiene factors.]Finally, the model has
been criticized in that it does not specify how motivating/hygiene factors are to be measured.
According to Herzberg following factors acts as motivators:
Achievement,
Recognition,
Advancement,
Work itself,
Possibility of growth, &
Responsibility.
Hygiene factors are:
Company policy & administration,
Technical supervision,

Need Fulfillment Theory:
Under the need-fulfillment theory it is believed that a person is satisfied if he gets what he
wants & the more he wants something or the more important it is to him, the more satisfiedhe is when he gets it & the more dissatisfied he is when he does not get it. Needs may be need
for personal achievement, social achievement & for influence.
a) Need for personal achievement :
Desires for personal career development, improvement in one's own life standards, better
education & prospects for children & desire for improving one's own work performance.
b) Need for social achievement:
A drive for some kind of collective success is relation to some standards of excellence. It is
indexed in terms of desires to increase overall productivity, increased national prosperity,
better life community & safety for everyone.
c) Need for influence:
A desire to influence other people & surroundings environment. In the works situation, it
means to have power status & being important as reflected in initiative taking and
participation in decision making.
In summary, this theory tell us that job satisfaction is a function of, or is positively related to
the degree to which one's personal & social needs are fulfilled in the job situation.

Social References - Group Theory:
It takes into account the point of view & opinions of the group to whom the individual looks
for the guidance. Such groups are defined as the 'reference-group' for the individual in that
they define the way in which he should look at the world and evaluate various phenomena in
the environment (including himself). It would be predicted, according to this theory that if a
job meets the interest, desires and requirements of a person's reference group, he will like it
& if it does not, he will not like it.
A good example of this theory has been given by C.L. Hulin. He measures the effects of
community characteristics on job satisfaction of female clerical workers employed in 300
different catalogue order offices. He found that with job conditions held constant job
satisfaction was less among persons living in a well-to-do neighborhood than among those
whose neighborhood was poor. Hulin thus provides strong evidence that such frames of
reference for evaluation may be provided by one's social groups and general social
environment.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Research methodology is a way to systematically solve the problem. It may be understood has a
science of studying how research is done scientifically. In it we study the various steps that all
generally adopted by a researcher in studying his research problem along with the logic behind them.
The scope of research methodology is wider than that of research method.
Meaning of Research
Research is defined as a scientific & systematic search for pertinent information on a specific
topic. Research is an art of scientific investigation. Research is a systemized effort to gain new
knowledge. It is a careful inquiry especially through search for new facts in any branch of
knowledge. The search for knowledge through objective and systematic method of finding solution
to a problem is a research.
RESEARCH DESIGN
A research is the arrangement of the conditions for the collections and analysis of the data in a
manner that aims to combine relevance to the research purpose with economy in procedure. In fact,
the research is design is the conceptual structure within which research is conducted; it constitutes
the blue print of the collection, measurement and analysis of the data. As search the design includes
an outline of what the researcher will do from writing the hypothesis and its operational implication
to the final analysis of data.
The design is such studies must be rigid and not flexible and most focus attention on the following 2;

The present study is exploratory in nature, as it seeks to discover ideas and insight to bring out new
relationship. Research design is flexible enough to provide opportunity for considering different
aspects of problem under study. It helps in bringing into focus some inherent weakness in enterprise

SUGGESTION AND RECOMANDATION
In the organization most of employees are satisfied with all the facilities provided by
company. But there are some employees also who are not satisfied with the company.
Management should try to convert unsatisfied employees in to satisfied employees. Because
if employee is not satisfied than the he is not able to give his 100% to his work and the
productivity of employee decrease. So management should try to satisfied his employees
because employees are the assets of the company not a liabilities.

LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY
Limitations are as follows-
Data collected is based on questionnaire.
The number of employees in IB MOTORS AT JAMNAGAR is more, so sample size
is limited by 100.
The information collected by the observation method is very limited.
The result would be varying according to the individuals as well as time.
Some respondents hesitated to give the actual situation; they feared that management
would take any action against them
The findings and conclusions are based on knowledge and experience of the
respondents sometime may subject to bias.
