Job satisfaction is the terminology used to describe whether employees are happy
and contented and fulfilling their desires and needs at work. Many measures purport that
employee satisfaction is a factor in employee motivation, employee goal achievement,
and positive employee morale in the workplace. The backbone of employee satisfaction
is the respect for workers and the job they perform. In every interaction with
management, employees should be treated with courtesy and interest.
Employee satisfaction is a pleasurable or positive emotional reaction to a person’s
job experiences. An employee is said to be satisfied, on the basis of his judgment on how
well his job is on the whole satisfying his various needs. Job satisfaction depends upon
the performance of work and emotional aspects of individual’s experiences towards the
job. If an individual is not satisfied with the working conditions, office atmosphere,
having no cordial relation with fellow employees as well as with the management, lack of
promotional avenues etc., there can never be satisfaction of employees in that
organization.
The pay levels, opportunities for advancements, working conditions, recognition
and rewards, autonomy and responsibility and personal goal satisfaction can have
influence on the attitudes of the individuals. If the organization can fulfil these things, the
employees will be satisfied i.e. discrepancies will be less or the employees are getting
what they have expected.
