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.

2.1 DEFINITIONS OF JOB SATISFACTION

Different authors give various definitions of job satisfaction. Some of them are taken from
the book of D.M. Pestonjee “Motivation and Job Satisfaction” which are given below:
Job satisfaction is defined as a pleasurable, emotional, state resulting from appraisal of
one’s job. An effective reaction to one’s job.
Weiss
Job satisfaction is general attitude, which is the result of many specific attitudes in three
areas namely:
Specific job factors
Individual characteristics
Group relationship outside the job
Blum and Naylor

Job satisfaction is defined, as it is result of various attitudes the person hold towards the
job, towards the related factors and towards the life in general.
Glimmer

Job satisfaction is defined as “any contribution, psychological, physical, and


environmental circumstances that cause a person truthfully say, ‘I am satisfied with my
job.”

Job satisfaction is defined, as employee’s judgment of how well his job on a whole is
satisfying his various needs Mr. Smith

Job satisfaction is defined as a pleasurable or positive state of mind resulting from


appraisal of one’s job or job experiences.
Locke

2.2 HISTORY OF JOB SATISFACTION

11
12

The term job satisfaction was brought to lime light by hoppock (1935). He revived 35
studies on job satisfaction conducted prior to 1933 and observes that Job satisfaction is
combination of psychological, physiological and environmental circumstances. That
causes a person to say. “I m satisfied with my job”. Such a description indicate the variety
of variables that influence the satisfaction of the individual but tell us nothing about the
nature of Job satisfaction.

Job satisfaction has been most aptly defined by pestonjee (1973) as a job, management,
personal adjustment & social requirement. Morse (1953) considers Job satisfaction as
dependent upon job content, identification with the co., financial & job status & priding
group cohesiveness

One of the biggest preludes to the study of job satisfaction was the Hawthorne study.
These studies (1924-1933), primarily credited to Elton Mayo of the Harvard Business
School, sought to find the effects of various conditions (most notably illumination) on
workers’ productivity.

These studies ultimately showed that novel changes in work conditions temporarily
increase productivity (called the Hawthorne Effect). It was later found that this increase
resulted, not from the new conditions, but from the knowledge of being observed.
This finding provided strong evidence that people work for purposes other than pay,
which paved the way for researchers to investigate other factors in job satisfaction.

Scientific management (aka Taylorism) also had a significant impact on the study of job
satisfaction. Frederick Winslow Taylor’s 1911 book, Principles of Scientific
Management, argued that there was a single best way to perform any given work task.
This book contributed to a change in industrial production philosophies, causing a shift
from skilled labor and piecework towards the more modern approach of assembly lines
and hourly wages.

12
13

The initial use of scientific management by industries greatly increased productivity


because workers were forced to work at a faster pace. However, workers became
exhausted and dissatisfied, thus leaving researchers with new questions to answer
regarding job satisfaction.

It should also be noted that the work of W.L. Bryan, Walter Dill Scott, and Hugo
Munsterberg set the tone for Taylor’s work.

Some argue that Maslow’s hierarchy of needs theory, a motivation theory, laid the
foundation for job satisfaction theory. This theory explains that people seek to satisfy five
specific needs in life – physiological needs, safety needs, social needs, self-esteem needs,
and self-actualization. This model served as a good basis from which early researchers
could develop job satisfaction theories.

2.3 IMPORTANCE OF JOB SATISFACTION

13
14

 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.

14

2.4 IMPORTANCE TO WORKER AND ORGANIZATION

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 can 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.
However, studies dating back to Herzberg’s (1957) have shown at least low
correlation between high morale and high productivity and it does seem logical that more
satisfied workers will tend to add more value to an organization.
Unhappy employees, who are motivated by fear of loss of job, will not give 100
percent of their effort for very long. Though fear is a powerful motivator, it is also a
temporary one, and also as soon as the threat is lifted performance will decline.
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.
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 a prerequisite to satisfying or delighting customers, thus
protecting the “bottom line”.

2.5 WORKERS ROLE IN 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. Employer’s value and rewards


excellent reading, listening, writing and speaking skills.
Know more. Acquire new job related knowledge that helps you to perform tasks more
efficiently and effectively. This will relive boredom and often gets one noticed.
Demonstrate creativity and initiative. Qualities like these are valued by most
organizations and often results 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 help to give meaning to one’s existence, thus playing a vital role in
job satisfaction. Learn to de-stress. Plan to avoid burn out by developing healthy stress
management techniques.

2.6 FACTORS OF JOB SATISFACTION

Hoppock, the earliest investigator in this field, in 1935 suggested that there are six major
components of job satisfaction. These are as under:

 The way the individual reacts to unpleasant situations,


 The facility with which he adjusted himself with other person
 The relative status in the social and economic group with which he identifies
himself
 The nature of work in relation to abilities, interest and preparation of worker
 Security
 Loyalty
Herberg, mausaer, Peterson and capwell in 1957 reviewed more than 150 studies and
listed various job factors of job satisfaction. These are briefly defined one by one as
follows:

1. Intrinsic aspect of job


It includes all of the many aspects of the work, which would tend to be constant for
the work regardless of where the work was performed.
2. Supervision
This aspect of job satisfaction pertains to relationship of worker with his immediate
superiors. Supervision, as a factor, generally influences job satisfaction.
3. Working conditions
This includes those physical aspects of environment which are not necessary a part of
the work. Hours are included this factor because it is primarily a function of
organization, affecting the individuals comfort and convenience in much the same
way as other physical working conditions.

4. Wage and salaries

17
18

This factor includes all aspect of job involving present monitory remuneration for
work done.

5. Opportunities for advancement


It includes all aspect of job which individual sees as potential sources of betterment of
economic position, organizational status or professional experience.
6. Security
It is defined to include that feature of job situation, which leads to assurance for
continued employment, either within the same company or within same type of work
profession.
7. Company & management
It includes the aspect of worker’s immediate situation, which is a function of
organizational administration and policy. It also involves the relationship of employee
with all company superiors above level of immediate supervision.
8. Social aspect of job
It includes relationship of worker with the employees specially those employees at
same or nearly same level within the organization.
9. Communication
It includes job situation, which involves spreading the information in any direction
within the organization. Terms such as information of employee’s status, information
on new developments, information on company line of authority, suggestion system,
etc, are used in literature to represent this factor.
10. Benefits
It includes those special phases of company policy, which attempts to prepare the
worker for emergencies, illness, old age, also. Company allowances for holidays,
leaves and vacations are included within this factor.

18
19

2.7 REASONS OF LOW JOB SATISFACTION

Reasons why employees may not be completely satisfied with their jobs:

1. Conflict between co-workers.

2. Conflict between supervisors.

3. Not being opportunity paid for what they do.

4. Have little or no say in decision making that affect employees.

5. Fear of loosing their job.

19
20

2.8 EFFECTS OF LOW JOB SATISFACTION

1. HIGH ABSENTEEISM

Absenteeism means it is a habitual pattern of absence from duty or obligation.


If there will be low job satisfaction among the employees the rate of absenteeism
will definitely increase and it also affects on productivity of organization.

of turn over and rate of absenteesm.
As th job satisfaction is high the rate of both turn over and absentiseesm is low and vise a
versa.

20
21

2.HIGH TURNOVER

In human resource refers to characteristics of a given company or industry relative to the


rate at which an employer gains and losses the staff.
If the employer is said to be have a high turnover of employees of that company
have shorter tenure than those of other companies.

3.TRAINING COST INCREASES

As employees leaves organization due to lack of job satisfaction. Then Human resource
manager has to recruit new employees. So that the training expenditure will increases.

INFLUENCES ON JOB SATISFACTION

There are no. of factors that influence job satisfaction. For example, one recent study
even found that if college students majors coinsided with their job , this relationship will
predicted subsequent job satisfaction. However, the main influences can be summerised
along with the dimentions identified above.

The work itself


The concept of work itself is a major source of satisfaction. For example, research related
to the job charactoristics approach to job design, shows that feedback from job itself and
autonomy are two of the major job related motivational factors. Some of the most
important ingridents of a satisfying job uncovered by survey include intersting and
challenging work, work that is not boring, and the job that provides status.

Pay
Wages and salaries are recognised to be a significant, but complex, multidimentional
factor in job satisfaction. Money not only helps people attain their basic needs butevel

21
22

need satisfaction. Employees often see pay as a reflection of how managemnet view their
conrtibution to the organization. Fringe benefits are also important.
If the employees are allowed some flexibility in choosing the type of benefits they prefer
within a total package, called a flexible benefit plan, there is a significant increase in
both benefit satisfaction and overall job satisfaction.

Promotions
Promotional opportunities are seem to be have avarying effect on job satisfaction. This is
because of promotion take number of different forms.

WHAT IS THE IMPACT OF JOB SATISFACTION?

Many managers subscribe to the belief that a satisfied worker is necessarily good
worker. In other words, if management could keep the entire worker’s happy”, good
performance would automatically fallow. There are two propositions concerning the
satisfaction performance relation ship. The first proposition, which is based on
traditional view, is that satisfaction is the effect rather than the cause of performance.
This proposition says that efforts in a job leads to rewards, which results in a certain
level of satisfaction .in another proposition, both satisfaction and performance are
considered to be functions of rewards.
Various research studies indicate that to a certain extent job satisfaction affects
employee turn over, and consequently organization can gain from lower turn over in
terms of lower hiring and training costs. Also research has shown an inverse relation
between job satisfaction and absenteeism. When job satisfaction is high there would
be low absenteeism, but when job satisfaction is low, it is more likely to lead a high
absenteeism.

22
23

What job satisfaction people need?


Each employee wants:
1. Recognition as an individual
2. Meaningful task
3. An opportunity to do something worthwhile.
4. Job security for himself and his family
5. Good wages
6. Adequate benefits
7. Opportunity to advance
8. No arbitrary action- a voice a matters affecting him
9. Satisfactory working conditions
10. Competence leadership- bosses whom he can admire and respect as persons
and as bosses.

However, the two concepts are interrelated in that job satisfaction can contribute to
morale and morale can contribute to job satisfaction.
It must be remembered that satisfaction and motivation are not synonyms. Motivation is a
drive to perform, where as satisfaction reflects the individual’s attitude towards the
situation. The factors that determine whether individual is adequately satisfied with the
job differs from those that determine whether he or she is motivated. the level of job
satisfaction is largely determined by the comfits offered by the environment and the
situation . Motivation, on the other hand is largely determine by value of reward and their
dependence on performance. The result of high job satisfaction is increased commitment
to the organization, which may or may not result in better performance.
A wide range of factors affects an individual’s level of satisfaction. While organizational
rewards can and do have an impact, job satisfaction is primarily determine by factors that
are usually not directly controlled by the organization. a high level of job satisfaction lead
to organizational commitment, while a low level, or dissatisfaction, result in a behavior
detrimental to the organization. For example, employee who like their jobs, supervisors,
and the factors related to the job will probably be loyal and devoted. People will work
harder and derive satisfaction if they are given the freedom to make their own decisions.

MODELS OF JOB SATISFACTION

25

MODELS OF JOB SATISFACTION


There are various methods and theories of measuring job satisfaction level of employees
in the orgnization given by different authers.
List of all the theorise and methods measuring job satisfaction level is given below:

A MODEL OF FACET SATISFACTION

 Affect theory(Edwin A. Locke 1976)


 Dispositional Theory( Timothy A. Judge 1988)
 Two-Factor Theory (Motivator-Hygiene Theory) (Frederick Herzberg’s)
 Job Characteristics Model (Hackman & Oldham)
 Rating scale
 Personal interviews
 action tendencies
 Job enlargement
 Job rotation
 Change of pace
 Scheduled rest periods

Fig.no.2 Model of determinant of facet of job satisfaction

Edward E.lawler in 1973 propoed a model of facet satisfaction. This model is


applicable to understand what determines a person’s satisfaction with any facet of job.
According to this model actual outcome level plays a key role in a person’s perception of
what rewards he recieves. His perception influenced by his perception of what his referent
others recieves. The higher outcome level of his referent other the lower his outcome level
will appear. This model also focus on his perception on reward level.
3.2 AFFECT THEORY

26
27

Edwin A. Locke’s 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/aren’t 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 doesn’t value that facet.
To illustrate, if Employee A values autonomy in 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.

3.3 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 one’s 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 one’s 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 self) and general self-efficacy
(the belief in one’s 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) leads to higher job satisfaction. Finally, lower levels of neuroticism
lead to higher job satisfaction.

27
28

3.4 TWO-FACTOR THEORY (MOTIVATOR-HYGIENE THEORY)

Frederick Hertzberg’s 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. Motivating factors are those aspects of the job that make people
want to perform, and provide people with satisfaction. These motivating factors are
considered to be intrinsic to the job, or the work carried out.Motivating 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 Hackman & Oldham suggesting that
Hertzberg's original formulation of the model may have been a methodological
artifactFurthermore, 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 criticised in that it does not
specify how motivating/hygiene factors are to be measured]

3.5 JOB CHARACTERISTICS MODEL

28
29

Hackman & Oldham proposed the Job Characteristics Model, which is widely used as a
framework to study how particular job characteristics impact on job outcomes, including
job satisfaction.
The model states that there are five core job characteristics (skill variety, task identity,
task significance, autonomy, and feedback) which impact three critical psychological
states (experienced meaningfulness, experienced responsibility for outcomes, and
knowledge of the actual results), in turn influencing work outcomes (job satisfaction,
absenteeism, work motivation, etc.).
The five core job characteristics can be combined to form a motivating potential score
(MPS) for a job, which can be used as an index of how likely a job is to affect an
employee's attitudes and behaviors.
A meta-analysis of studies that assess the framework of the model provides some support
for the validity of the JCM.

3.6 MODERN METHOD OF MEASURING JOB SATISFACTION

29
30

In this method of measuring job satisfaction the comparision between various


orgnizational terms and conditions at managerial level and also the orgnization at a large.

3. My job responsibilities are well defined and clear

SATISFACTION WITH CAREER DEVELOPMENT


1. I have adequate opportunities to learn and grow
2. I get opportunities to handle greater responsibilities
3. My skills and abilities are adequately used at work
From all above we can conclude level of job satisfaction of our employees.

3.7 RATING SCALE


It is one of the most common methods of measuring job satisfaction. The popular
rating scale used to measure Job satisfaction is to include:
Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaires: It helps to obtain a clear picture of pertinent
satisfactions and dissatisfactions of employees.
Job Description Index: it measures Job satisfaction on the dimension identified by
Smith, Kendall, Hullin.
Porter Need Identification Questionnaires: It is used only for management personnel
and revolves around the problems and challenges faced by managers.

3.8 CRITICAL INCIDENTS


Fredrick Hertz berg and his Associates popularized this method of measuring Job
satisfaction. It involves asking employees to described incidents on job when they were
particularly satisfied or dissatisfied. Then the incidents are analyzed in terms of their
contents and identifying those related aspects responsible for the positive and negative
attitudes.

3.09 PERSONAL INTERVIEWS

31
32

This method facilitates an in-depth exploration through interviewing of job attitudes.


The main advantage in this method is that additional information or clarifications can
be obtained promptly.

3.10 ACTION TENDENCIES


By this method, Job satisfaction can be measured by asking questions and gathering
information on how they feel like behaving with respect to certain aspects of their
jobs. This method provides employees more opportunity to express their in-depth
feeling.

In his study on American employees, hoppock identified six factors that contributed to
job satisfaction among them. These are as follows:
1. The way individual reacts to unpleasant situations.
2. The facilities with which he adjust himself to other persons.
3. His relative’s status in the social & economic group with which he identifies
himself.
4. The nature of work in relation to the abilities, interest & preparation of the
workers.
5. Security.
6. Loyalty.
Because human resource manager often serve as intermediaries between employees &
management in conflct.they are concern with Job satisfaction or general job attitudes with
the employees.
Philip apple white has listed the five major components of Job satisfaction .as
1. Attitude towards work group.
2. General working conditions.
3. Attitude towards company.
4. Monitory benefits &
5. Attitude towards supervision
Other components that should be added to this five are individual’s state of mind about
the work itself and about the life in general .the individual’s health, age, level of

32
33

aspiration. Social status and political & social activities can all contribute to the Job
satisfaction. A person’s attitude toward his or her job may be positive or negative.

3.11 JOB ENLARGEMENT


The concept of job enlargement originated after World War II. It is simply the organizing
of the work so as to relate the contents of the job to the capacity, actual and potential, of
workers. Job enlargement is oblivious forerunner of the concept and philosophy of job
design. Stephan offers three basic assumptions behind the concept of job enlargement.
Output will increase if
1. Workers abilities are fully utilized
2. Worker has more control over the work
3. Workers interest in work and workplace is stimulated.
Job enlargement is a generic term that broadly means adding more and different tasks to
a specialized job. It may widen the number of task the employee must do that is, add
variety. When additional simple task are added to a job, the process is called horizontal
job enlargement. This also presumably adds interest to the work and reduces monotony
and boredom.
To check harmful effects of specialization, the engineering factors involved in each
individual job must be carefully analyzed. Perhaps, the assembly lines can be shortened so
that there will be more lines and fewer workers on each line. Moreover, instead of
assigning one man to each job and then allowed to decide for himself how to organize the
work. Such changes permit more social contacts and greater control over the work
process.

3.12 JOB ROTATION

33
34

Job rotation involves periodic assignments of an employee to completely different sets of


job activities. One way to tackle work routine is to use the job rotation. When an activity
is no longer challenging, the employee is rotated to another job, at the same level that has
similar skill requirements.
Many companies are seeking a solution to on-the-job boredom through systematically
moving workers from one job to another. This practice provides more varieties and gives
employees a chance to learn additional skills. The company also benefits since the
workers are qualified to perform a number of different jobs in the event of an emergency.

3.13 CHANGE OF PACE


Anything that will give the worker a chance to change his pace when he wishes will lend
variety to his work. Further if workers are permitted to change their pace that would give
them a sense of accomplishment.

3.14 SCHEDULED REST PERIODS


Extensive research on the impact of rest periods indicates that they may increase both
morale and productivity. Scheduled rest periods bring many advantages:
They counteract physical fatigue
They provide variety and relieve monotony
They are something to look forward to- getting a break gives a sense of achievement.
They provide opportunities for social contacts.

4.1 INTRODUCTION

Research refers to a search for knowledge. It is a systematic method of collecting and


recording the facts in the form of numerical data relevant to the formulated problem and
arriving at certain conclusions over the problem based on collected data.

Thus formulation of the problem is the first and foremost step in the research process
followed by the collection, recording, tabulation and analysis and drawing the
conclusions. The problem formulation starts with defining the problem or number of
problems in the functional area. To detect the functional area and locate the exact problem
is most important part of any research as the whole research is based on the problem.

According to Clifford Woody research comprises defining and redefining problems,


formulating hypothesis or suggested solutions: collecting, organizing and evaluating data:
making deductions and reaching conclusions: and at last carefully testing the conclusions
to determine whether they fit the formulating hypothesis.
Research can be defined as “the manipulation of things, concepts or symbols for
the purpose of generalizing to extend, correct or verify knowledge, whether that
knowledge aids in construction of theory or in the practice of an art”
In short, the search for knowledge through objective and systematic method of
finding solution to a problem is research.

4.2 DRAFTING QUESTIONNAIRE

36
37

The questionnaire is considered as the most important thing in a survey operation. Hence
it should be carefully constructed. Structured questionnaire consist of only fixed
alternative questions. Such type of questionnaire is inexpensive to analysis and easy to
administer. All questions are closed ended.

4.3SAMPLING
It was divided into following parts:

Sampling universe
All the employees are the sampling universe for the research.

Sampling technique
Judgmental sampling
Sample was taken on judgmental basis. The advantage of sampling are that it is much less
costly, quicker and analysis will become easier. Sample size taken was 100 employees.

research design chalked out. While deciding the method of data collection to be used for

37
38

the study, the researcher should keep in mind two types of data viz. Primary and
secondary data.

Primary Data: -
The primary data are those, which are collected afresh and for the first time and
thus happen to be original in character. The primary data were collected through well-
designed and structured questionnaires based on the objectives.

Secondary Data:
The secondary data are those, which have already been collected by someone else
and passed through statistical process. The secondary data required of the research was
collected through various newspapers, and Internet etc.
