INTRODUCTION

Job satisfaction in regards to one’s feeling or state of mind regarding nature of their work. Job

can be influenced by variety of factors like quality of one’s relationship with their supervisor,

quality of physical environment in which they work, degree of fulfillment in their work, etc.

Positive attitude towards job are equivalent to job satisfaction where as negative attitude towards

job has been defined variously from time to time. In short job satisfaction is a person’s attitude

towards job.

Job satisfaction is an attitude which results from balancing & summation of many specific likes

and dislikes experienced in connection with the job- their evaluation may rest largely upon one’s

success or failure in the achievement of personal objective and upon perceived combination of

the job and combination towards these ends.

According to pestonejee, Job satisfaction can be taken as a summation of employee’s feelings in

four important areas. These are:

1. Job-nature of work (dull, dangerous, interesting), hours of work, fellow workers,

opportunities on the job for promotion and advancement (prospects), overtime

regulations, interest in work, physical environment, and machines and tools.

2. Management- supervisory treatment, participation, rewards and punishments, praises and

blames, leaves policy and favoritism.

3. Social relations- friends and associates, neighbors, attitudes towards people in

community, participation in social activity socialibility and caste barrier.

4. Personal adjustment-health and emotionality.

Job satisfaction is an important indicator of how employees feel about their job and a predictor

of work behavior such as organizational citizenship, Absenteeism, Turnover.

Job satisfaction benefits the organization includes reduction in complaints and grievances,

absenteeism, turnover, and termination; as well as improved punctuality and worker morale. Job

satisfaction is also linked with a healthier work force and has been found to be a good indicator

of longevity.

Job satisfaction is not synonyms with organizational morale, which the possessions of feeling

have being accepted by and belonging to a group of employees through adherence to common

goals and confidence in desirability of these goals.

Morale is the by-product of the group, while job satisfaction is more an individual state of mind.

IMPORTANCE OF JOB SATISFACTION

Job satisfaction is an important indicator of how employees feel about their job and a

predictor of work behavior such as organizational, citizenship, Absenteeism, Turnover.

Job satisfaction can partially mediate the relationship of personality variables and deviant

work behavior.

Common research finding is that job satisfaction is correlated with life style.

This correlation is reciprocal meaning the people who are satisfied with the life tends to

be satisfied with their jobs and the people who are satisfied their jobs tends to satisfied

with their life.

This is vital piece of information that is job satisfaction and job performance is directly

related to one another. Thus it can be said that, “A happy worker is a productive worker.”

It gives clear evidence that dissatisfied employees skip work more often and more like to

resign and satisfied worker likely to work longer with the organization.

Any organizations strives its best to follow and develop suitable techniques to attract

suitable desirable candidates. As such the management of Webmark Technologies also left the

immense need to undertake the project study on recruitment. Recruitment is a process to attract

people with the multi-dimensional skills and experience that suits the present and future

organizational strategies.

regulations decreases and competition widens. This brings many firms each differentiating

themselves in some way to be best. Hence the need for more hires is increasing, and efficient

recruitment and selection is being a need for the firm.

Employees satisfied is a process of identifying the needs of employees. In this process relevant

information about applicant is collected through series of steps so as to evaluate their satisfaction

levels for the job to be filled. Hence the study is directed towards Satisfaction policy and its

effectiveness in terms of number of people Retained with the company.
