JOB SATISFACTION
Job satisfaction as a pleasurable or positive emotional state resulting from the appraisal of ones job or job experience.
Locke
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 is a result of employees perception of how well their job provides these things which are viewed as important. It is generally recognized in the organizational behaviour field that Job satisfaction is the most important and frequently studied attitude.
Factors influencing Job satisfaction
There are a number of factors that influence Job satisfaction.
1. Pay
Wages are a significant factor in Job satisfaction. Money not only helps people attain their basic needs but is instrumental in providing upper level need satisfaction. Employees often see pay as a reflection of how management views their contribution to the organization.
2. Work itself
The content of the work itself is another major source of satisfaction. Some of the most important ingredients of a satisfying job uncovered by surveys include interesting and challenging work, work that is not boring and a job that provides status.
3. Promotions
Promotional opportunities seem to have a varying effect on Job satisfaction. This is because promotions take a number of different forms and have variety of accompanying rewards.
4. Supervision
Supervision is another moderately important source of Job satisfaction. The other dimension is participation or influence as illustrated by managers who allow their people to participate in decisions that effect their own jobs. A participative climate created by the supervisor has a more substantial effect or workers satisfaction than does participation in a specific decision.
5. Work group
The nature of the work group will have an effect on Job satisfaction. Friendly, cooperative coworkers are a modest source of Job satisfaction to individual employees. The work group serves as a source of support, comfort, advice and assistance to the individual worker.
6. Working condition
Working condition are another factor that have a modest effect on Job satisfaction. If the working conditions are good (clean, attractive, surroundings, for instance) the personnel will find it is easier to carry out their jobs.
OUTCOMES OF JOB SATISFACTION
Hence performance leads satisfaction rather than vice versa.
To society as a whole as well as from an individual employees standpoint, Job satisfaction in and of itself is a desirable outcome. In examining the outcomes of Job satisfaction it is important to break down the analysis into a series of specific sub topics. The following examines the most important of these.
Satisfaction and Productivity
Are satisfied workers more productive than their less satisfied counterparts. This satisfaction performance controversy has raged over the years. Although most people assume a positive relationship, the preponderance of research evidence indicates that there is not strong linkage between satisfaction and productivity.
Satisfaction and Turnover
Research has uncovered a moderate relationship between satisfaction and turnover. High Job satisfaction will not in and of itself keep turnover low, but it does seem to help. On the other hand, if there is considerable job dissatisfaction there is likely to be high turnover.
Satisfaction and Absenteeism
Research has pretty well demonstrated an inverse relationship between satisfaction and absenteeism. When satisfaction is high, absenteeism tends to be low; when satisfaction is low, absenteeism tends to be high. However, as with the other relationships with satisfaction there are moderating variables such as the degree to which people feel that their jobs are important.
Other effects of Job satisfaction
In addition to the above there are a number of other effects brought about by high Job satisfaction. Research reports that highly satisfied employees tend to have better mental and physical health, learn new Job related tasks more quickly, have fewer on the job accidents, and file fewer grievances.
Models of Job satisfaction
REVIEW OF LITERATURE Job Satisfaction
Job satisfaction has been one of the most extensively discussed and studied concepts in organizational and personnel management, accounting for more than 5000 published works. The information generated by research into this area has practical implications for individuals and organizations alike, as employees strive for the best quality of life possible and managers are faced with the ever increasing challenge of operating efficient, effective organizations using the human and technological resources available to them. Understanding job satisfaction and what it means is not only a desirable but a critical aspect of life for both organizations and individuals.
Defining and measuring job satisfaction has been a challenging process which has been refined through decades of research and which is still occurring. According to Cranny, Smith & Stone (1992), job satisfaction is generally agreed upon by researchers to be an affective reaction to a job that results from the employees comparison of actual outcomes with those that are desired.
The study of job satisfaction grew out of several schools management theory dating back to Frederck Taylors early applications of scientific method to factory problems in the first part of this century. Vrooms (1964) Expectancy Theory of human motivation is a significant contributor to the field which goes beyond the simple behavioral concept of stimulus-response and reinforcement of behavioral psychology; it explains motivation as the perceived value of probably outcomes of actions, and the probability that actions will bring about outcomes which are highly desired. The theory thus takes into account the intrinsic values that affect satisfaction and work which research has often found to be at least equally important or more so to job satisfaction than arte the extrinsic values.
Abraham Maslows (1943) theory of a Hierarchy of Needs examines human motivation in terms of levels of met or unmet needs. His premises include that only an unsatisfied need can influence behavior, that a person will minimally satisfy each level of need before feeling the need at the next level, and that if need-satisfaction is not maintained at any level it will become a priority again.
At the lowest level of Maslows Hierachy of Needs are physical Needs (food, clothing, Shelter and comfort), followed by safety needs (security for self and possessions and avoidance of risk, harm and pain). Social needs comprise the level, and include companionship, acceptance, love and affection and group membership. Higher levels include Esteem Needs (responsibility, self-respect, recognition and sense of accomplishment) and Self-Actualization Needs (reaching ones potential, independence, creativity and self-expression).
According to Plunkett and Attner (1994) an unmet need an frustrate an employee and will continue to influence his or her behavior until it is satisfied; managers can therefore effectively work with an employee by identifying the level of need which he or she is trying to satisfy and by attempting to build into the work environment opportunities that will allow the individual to satisfy his or her needs.
Frederck Herzbergs (1975) Motivation Hygiene Theory directly addresses the issues of satisfaction and dissatisfaction on the job. His theory and research suggests that job dissatisfaction is caused by the absence of or deficits in hygiene factors such as salary, job security, working conditions, status, company policies, quality of supervision and quality of interpersonal relationships. These factors, although they can cause job dissatisfaction if deficient, do into result in job satisfaction if present. Rather, according to Herzberg, it is the motivation factors intrinsic to a job and related to job content that have the power to increase job satisfaction. Motivation factors include achievement, recognition, responsibility, advancement, the work itself, and possibility of growth.
Extensive research has been conducted about the relationship between job satisfactions and other work-related behaviors or attitudes such as job performance, stress and health, general life satisfaction, turnover commitment to the organization, and pro-organizational behaviours. Over time the findings of research have been inconsistent; this very well may be due, however, to wide variation in definitions of job satisfaction and in the validity of methods used to measure it (Cranny, Smith, & stone, 1992).
According to Silberstand (1996), satisfied workers have been found to be more committed to organizations, to have more favourable attitudes towards work and the organization, to be more conscientious, to be more likely to help co-workers, to have greater willingness to report unethical behaviours, and to be less likely to leave their jobs that are dissatisfied workers. Cranny, smith, & stone (1992) note that job satisfaction has been shown to influence attendance at work, pro-organizational behaviors, voting for or against union representation, decisions to leave the organization or to retire, and psychological withdrawal bahaviours.
Following is a review of recent literature on the relationship between job satisfaction and several behaviours or attitudes.
According to cranny, smith, & (1992) the methods researchers use to study performance and satisfaction influence the conclusion reached about their relationship. They suggest that corelational studies have suggests a stronger relationship. Katzell & Guzzo (1983), for example reviewed 207 studies of the effects of psychologically based interventions on productivity (as well as job satisfaction).
Intervention studies, which are experimental or quasi experimental, assess the effects of manipulated independent variable (such as changes into account better then corelational studies the various mediating factors (such as goal-setting, extrinsic and intrinsic rewards, and perceived equity) which also affect both performance and satisfaction (Cranny, Smith, & stone, 1992).
A path analysis of Cranny, smith, & stones study suggests that job satisfaction significantly influences job performance as rated by supervisors (though not as self reported), which is believed to be due to increased alertness and focused attention. Interestingly, efforts expenditure was found to positively affect self rated job performance, but had an inverse relationship with supervisor rated job performance (in other ratings of job performance). It is suggested that this could be due to a efforts on the part of the employees. Neiter self reported nor supervisor- reported job performance was found to substantially influence job satisfaction, suggesting that relationship is not bi-directional. Factors found in this study to influence job satisfaction discussed in a later section.
Other recent studies have discussed the relationship between job satisfaction and job performance. Deconinck and Stilwell (1996) found in studying female advertising executives that job satisfaction is a significant predictor of organizational commitment; and Becker, billings, Eveleth, & Gilbert (1996) found that organizational commitment as targeted at supervisors was positively related to performance. Keller, Julian, & Kidia (1996) foundin studying research and development teams related to an increase in patent acquisition, technical quality ratings, and publication of articles.
Nerker. Mcgrath, & MacMillam (1996) found in studying innovation projects that social job satisfaction mediates the relationship between team deftness and performance, and that instrumental job satisfaction mediates the relationship between team comprehension and project performance. Babin and boles (1) (6) found in studying retail sales clerks that there in a positive relationship between job satisfaction and job.
Mounting health care costs, absenteeism, and lost productivity make health issues a pressing concern for managers. Research indicated that there is a relationship between stressors on the job and physical or emotional changed in individuals, and that psychological stressors produce changes in levels of various hormones, body chemicals, organic function, and anxiety (McLeen,, 1979).
The fight or flight physiological arousal, developed as an evolutionarily adaptive response to real physical threat, leaves modern men and women who experience psychological stress with physical threat, leaves modern men and women who experience psychological stress with physiological changes such as increased levels of adremaline and cortisol which can cause serious health problems if not alleviated, gastrointestinal disease (such as ulcers and irritable
bowel syndrome), allergies asthma, chronic backache, arthiriti, hyperthyroidism, and skin disorders are all believed to be aggravated by stress, which can also affect the bodys immune system and decrease resistance to illness (Charlesworth and Nathan, 1984). Injuries, workmans compensation claims and morbidity have all been found to be related to job stress (Cranny, Smith, & stone, 1992).
According to Cranny, Smith, & stone (1992), work factors that have been found to be related to coronary heart disease or hypertension include heavy workload (too much or too difficult for the individual), heavy responsibility for people or money, lack of control over work decisions, problems with a boss or co- workers, role ambiguity (unclear objectives resources), and limited opportunities for growth or advancement.
According to williamson (1996), jobs require a disproportionate amount of time and energy, they define us, and they are highly related to overall satisfaction with lie. Maslows Hierarchy of Needs, discussed previously, presents a model for understanding the ways in which work can affect general life satisfaction, as it is through work that most adults meet their basic physical needs, many of their social needs, and much of their needs for esteem and self-actualization.
Work related satisfaction has in fact been shown to be related to, and to be a major component of, satisfaction with life, including recently by Howard and Frink (1996). Stewart and Barling (1996) found in studying fathers that job satisfaction, work related mood and work tension affect the behavior of their children (acting out, shyness, and school competence). Job/life satisfaction is important for organizations to address for humanitarian as well as for practical reasons.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Research as a scientific and systematic search for pertinent information on a specific topic. In fact research is an art of scientific investigation.
Research comprises defining and redefining problems, formulating hypothesis or suggested solutions; collecting, organizing and evaluating data; make deductions and reaching conclusions; and at last carefully testing the conclusions to determine whether they fit the formulating hypothesis.
Research methodology is a way of systematically solve the research problem.
1. Aim of the study
The aim of the study is to study the job satisfaction in various units in Salem Co-Operative Sugar Mills Ltd.
2. Data Collection
In this survey in order to meet the objectives of the study both primary data and secondary data were collected.
a) Primary data
The primary data are those which are collected a fresh and for the first time, and thus happen to be original in character. Primary data was collected through structured questionnaire. Questionnaires were distributed to employees directly. From the answered questionnaire the opinion of employees were ascertained.
b) Secondary data
The secondary data are those which have already been collected by some one else. In this study facts were collected from company records and project textbooks.
3. Sampling design
A sample design is a definite plan for obtaining a sample from a given population.
a) Sample size
This refers to the number of items to be selected from the universe to constitute a sample. 100 samples were taken from Salem Co-Operative Sugar Mills as sample size.
b) Sample unit
A decision has to be taken concerning a sampling unit before selecting sample. Here the sampling unit is employees of Salem Co-Operative Sugar Mills, who are in general shift.
c) Sampling Technique
There are two types of sampling techniques. Probability sampling and non probability sampling.
Probability sampling is also known as random sampling or chance sampling. Under this sampling design, every item of the universe has an equal chance of inclusion in the sample.
Non probability sampling is the sampling procedure which does not afford any basis for estimating the probability that each item in the population has of being included in the sample.
In this research study, the probability sampling is used. The sampling method is used for the survey is simple random sampling.
d) Sampling tools
The chi-square test and Anova two way classifications are used as a statistical tools to analyze the dataTABLE - 1
