CHAPTER-1
INTRODUCTION
Human resource is considered to be the most valuable asset in any organization. It is the
sum-total of inherent abilities, aptitudes of the employed persons who comprise executives,
supervisors and the rank and file employees. The human resources should be utilized to the
maximum possible extent, in order to achieve individual and organizational goals. It is thus
the employee’s performance which ultimately decides the attainment of goals. Hence, the
employee’s performance is to a large extent influenced by motivation and job satisfaction.
Job satisfaction is all about how one feels about (or towards) one’s job. An employee who
expresses satisfaction is said to have a positive attitude towards the job, unlike a dissatisfied
employee who has a negative attitude towards the job. A person having negative attitude
shows a personality disposition which is inclined to experience nervousness, tension,
worry, upset and distress, where as those with positive attitude will feel happy with
themselves, others, and with their work.
Job satisfaction reflects the extent to which people find gratification or fulfillment in their
work. Job satisfaction shows that personal factors such as an individual needs and
aspirations determine his/her attitude, along with group and organizational factors such as
relationships with co-workers and supervisors and working conditions, work policies, and
compensation. A satisfied employee tends to be absent less often, to make positive
contributions, and to stay with the organization. The effect of job satisfaction goes beyond
organizational setting. Satisfied employees are more likely to be satisfied citizens. These
people will hold a more positive attitude towards life in general and make for a society of
more psychologically healthy.
Job satisfaction has been considered as state of condition where people are
1)Induced to do work efficiently and effectively
1
2)Convinced to remain in the enterprise
3) Prepared to act efficiently during contingences
4) prepared to welcome the changes without resistance
5) Interested in promoting the image of the organization
More happy and satisfied with their job. The level of job determines the job
satisfaction
People in higher level jobs find most of their needs satisfied than those in lower level. The
job satisfaction is a collection of attitudes about specific factors of the job. Employee can
be satisfied with some elements of the job while simultaneously dissatisfied with others.
The relationship between man and work has attracted the attention of philosophers,
scientists and novelists. A major part of man’s life is spent at the place of work. The nature
and significance of work is important as it occupies so much of man’s life span. A persons’
job is more than just the obvious activities of shuffling papers, waiting on customers or
driving a truck. Jobs require interaction with co-performers and bosses; following
organization rules and policies; meeting performance standards; living with working
conditions that are often less than ideal and the like. Job to an individual is not only a
means of earning a living but also serves other functions of individuals’ expectations of job
and rewards that the job provides. This means that an employee’s assessment of how
satisfied or dissatisfied he or she with his or her job is complex summation of number of
discrete job elements. This assessment of employees is very important to management
because they affect organizational behaviour. Specific employee attitudes relating to job
satisfaction and also towards organizational commitment are of major interest to the field of
organizational behaviour. Therefore, in simple words job satisfaction is how people feel
about their jobs and different aspects of their jobs. It is the extent to which people like
(satisfaction) or dislike (dissatisfaction) their jobs. A major part of man’s life is spent in
work, which is a social reality and social expectation. Even then, only economic motive has
never satisfied man. It is always of greater interest to know why man works and at which
level and how he or she is satisfied with job.
5. Job satisfaction refers to one’s feeling towards one’s job. It can only be inferred
but not seen.
6. Job-Satisfaction is often determined by how well out-comes meet or exceeds
expectations. Satisfaction in one’s job means increased commitment in the
fulfilment of formal requirements. There is greater willingness to invest personal
energy and time in job performance.
The terms job satisfaction and job attitudes are typically used interchangeably. Both refer to
effective orientations on the part of individuals towards their work roles which they are presently
occupying. Positive attitudes towards the job are conceptually equivalent to job satisfaction and
negative attitudes towards the job indicate job dissatisfaction
Eight Causes of Job Dissatisfaction
Job dissatisfaction refers to unhappy or negative feelings about work or the work environment.
There exist many factors which may result in job dissatisfaction.
Some of them are poor working conditions, overwork, low levels of pay, no scope of promotion or
career advancement and lack of recognition. But what is worst are the consequences of job
dissatisfaction which affect both the employees and the organization. It may result in loss of
motivation, lack of interest, frustration, poor productivity, absenteeism, and even high turnover
rates. There are several specific causes for job dissatisfaction, but it is understood there are four
main areas that reside in this issue. Causes of Job Dissatisfaction are;
3
1. Underpaid.
2. Limited Career Growth.
3. Lack of Interest.
4. Poor Management.
5. Unsupportive Boss.
6. Lack of Meaningful Work.
7. Opportunities for growth or incentives for meaningful work.
8. Work and Life Balance.
The effects of low job satisfaction can be far-reaching and this issue is of concern for small
business owners as well as large companies.
Underpaid
Not being paid what one is worth is called being underpaid.
If a person does not think they are being paid enough to do their job, then they perceive
themselves to be underpaid. If they research the wages for that job and find they are indeed being
underpaid, then their dissatisfaction is warranted.
From a company’s perspective, it is a valuable and important issue because individuals who are
dissatisfied with the money they are making, for the job they do,will most likely leave the
organization.
Limited Career Growth
Not having the opportunity to climb the ladder and grow the career is another area that can foster
dissatisfaction with a position.
For this aspect, it is important to understand that not everyone wants to move up the ladder. This
could mean that the employee will potentially leave for another organization that might have better
career growth opportunities.
Lack of Interest
This is a very straightforward concept; that one should not start his career with a job which is not
an interested area of that person.
A lack of interest in work is another reason why employees are unhappy. Most employees want to
perform job duties that are engaging and challenging.
Monotonous work causes an employee to experience boredom. Bored-and unchallenged
employees experience little incentive to concern themselves with workplace productivity.
Poor Management
The management team plays an important role in an organization. Managers are responsible for
4
motivating employees, planning, organizing and controlling within the organization. A key reason
employees perform poorly in the workplace is poor management. Managers with poor leadership
skills tend to offer little feedback on employees’ performances. Not having the leadership required
is another reason for dissatisfaction. People want to be led. They want to work with people who
inspire them and have a vision. Without those people, an employee can feel as if the company is
just drifting through space, waiting to run into something.
Unsupportive Boss
With companies downsizing and keeping resources at a minimum, managers become more
concerned about the bottom line rather than the very people who can have a direct effect on the
bottom line. Managers who disengage from their employees and focus only on results without
providing inspiration, motivation or support are often unaware that they may be a major cause of
job dissatisfaction.

Activities
1) Gloves
• Surgical gowns
Healthcare has become one of India’s largest sectors – both in terms of revenue and
employment. Healthcare comprises hospitals, medical devices, clinical trials, outsourcing,
telemedicine, medical tourism, health insurance and medical equipment. The Indian
healthcare sector is growing at a brisk pace due to its strengthening coverage, services and
increasing expenditure by public as well private players. Indian healthcare delivery system is
categorised into two major components – public and private. The Government, i.e. public
healthcare system comprises limited secondary and tertiary care institutions in key cities and
focuses on providing basic healthcare facilities in the form of primary healthcare centres
(PHCs) in rural areas. The private sector provides majority of secondary, tertiary and
quaternary care institutions with a major concentration in metros, tier I and tier II cities.
India’s competitive advantage lies in its large pool of well-trained medical professionals.
India is also cost competitive compared to its peers in Asia and Western countries. The cost
of surgery in India is about one-tenth of that in the US or Western Europe. India ranks 145th
among 195 countries in terms of quality and accessibility of healthcare. Industries within the
Healthcare Sector. The healthcare sector contains a diverse array of industries, with activities
ranging from research to manufacturing to facilities management.
Drugs
Drug manufacturers can further be broken down into biotechnology firms, major
pharmaceuticals firms, and makers of generic drugs. The biotech industry consists of
companies that engage in research and development to create new drugs, devices, and
treatment methods. Many of these companies are small and lack dependable sources of
revenue. Their market value may depend entirely on the expectation that a drug or treatment
will gain regulatory approval and FDA decisions or rulings in patent cases can lead to sharp,
double-digit swings in share prices. Examples of (larger) biotech firms include Gilead
Sciences Inc. And Celgene Corp. Major pharmaceuticals firms also engage in research and
development, but tend to focus more on manufacturing and marketing an existing portfolio of
drugs than the typical biotech firm. These companies tend to have more dependable streams
of revenue and a more diversified “pipeline” of drugs in the research and development stages,
making them less dependent on make-or-break drug trials and their shares less volatile.
Examples of major
7
pharmaceutical firms include novartis AG and GlaxoSmithKline PLC. Some pharmaceutical
firms specialize in generic drugs, which are identical to name-brand drugs but no longer
enjoy patent protection. As a result, there is often competition to manufacture identical drugs,
leading to lower prices and thinner profit margins. An example of a generic drugs firm is
Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd.
Medical Equipment
Medical equipment makers range from firms that manufacture standard, familiar products—
scalpels, forceps, bandages, and gloves—to those that conduct cutting-edge research and
produce expensive, hi-tech equipment, such as MRI machines and surgical robots. Medtronic
PLC is an example of a medical equipment maker.
Managed Healthcare
Managed healthcare companies provide health insurance policies. The “Big Five” firms that
dominate the industry are UnitedHealth Group Inc., Anthem Inc., Aetna Inc., Humana Inc.,
and Cigna Corp.
Healthcare Facilities
Health care facilities firms operate hospitals, clinics, labs, psychiatric facilities, and nursing
homes. Examples include Laboratory Corp. Of America Holdings, which operates facilities
that perform blood tests and other analysis, and HCA Healthcare Inc., which operates
hospitals and other healthcare facilities in the U.S. and U.K.

1.5 The Importance of Job Satisfaction
Job satisfaction is a measure of how much employees like the work that they do. While this
might seem obvious to most people, it's much less obvious why this is important. Some
would even argue that job satisfaction is largely unimportant, since unhappy employees still
come in to work to do their jobs like everyone else. However, the importance of job
satisfaction lies in how it affects the way that employees approach their work and how their
attitudes affect those around them.
Employees who are very satisfied with the work that they do perform their work in drastically
different ways than those employees who actively dislike their jobs. Perhaps more
importantly, happy employees are much more likely to work alongside other happy
employees because of the effect they have on overall workplace morale. Conversely, unhappy
employees or those who frequently complain about the work they do are likely to drag morale
down and cause those around them to suffer the ill effects of decreased job satisfaction.
10
1.6 Scope of the Study
The study report is prepared in term of the three months of internship program; the report
covered all the aspects of Priya Petro products employee’s job satisfaction. But the report is
prepared based only Santhome branch employees. All the department of Santhome branch
has participated on this report.
Job satisfaction is important because it affects not only the satisfied or dissatisfied employee
but also those around them. Since job satisfaction can affect productivity and other aspects of
an individual's work life, the number of satisfied or dissatisfied employees can have a
noticeable effect on how well a business runs.
11
1.7 Period Of Study

CHAPTER-2
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Hoole.et.al. (2003) discussed that the relations of Job Satisfaction and Motivation may due
to their close related aspects. Some of the organizational factors motivate an employee to
put additional efforts and at the same time fulfil his/ her emotional demands which leads to
job satisfaction. Researchers also discussed the relating factors between Motivation and
Job Satisfaction such as Job Security, Power, compensation and benefits etc.
Alan sari (2011) investigated the factors affecting career choice, job satisfaction and
perceptions of the public image of librarians in Kuwait. Data is gathered via questionnaires
sent to 117 professional librarians working in academic, public and special libraries in
Kuwait. It identified the factors which influenced the choice of career, sources of satisfaction
and dissatisfaction. Respondents reported that they are moderately satisfied with their
current job. The results shows that extrinsic measures, such as recognition of
accomplishment, fair performance evaluation and job security are ranked in the top and are
the most important aspects of job satisfaction, whereas intrinsic measures, such as suitable
daily working hours and nature of work fell close to the bottom of the list. The cause of
employee job satisfaction occurs in the area of benefits, contingent rewards, communication,
salaries, working conditions and promotions.
Vinokur Kaplan, (2011) stated that “organizational factors such as workload and working
condition were negatively related with job satisfaction”. In another study of general
16
practitioners in England, “four job stressors were identified that were predictive of job
dissatisfaction”12. Fletcher and Payne13 identified that “a lack of satisfaction can be a source
of stress, while high satisfaction can alleviate the effects of stress”.
Maslow (1954) arranged human needs along a five-level hierarchy from physiological needs,
safety and security, belonging, esteem to self-actualization. In Maslow’s pyramid, needs at
the lower levels must be fulfilled before those rise to a higher level. According to Maslow’s
theory, some researchers have approached on job satisfaction from the perspective of need
fulfilment. Job satisfaction as a match between what individuals perceive they need and what
rewards they perceive they receive from their jobs. However, overtime, Maslow’s theory has
diminished in value. In the current trend, the approach of job satisfaction focuses on cognitive
process rather than on basic needs in the studies.
Herzberg (1959) is based on the Maslow’s theory. Herzberg and colleagues built Herzberg’s
motivation-hygiene theory of job satisfaction. Theory proposed that there are two different
categories of needs, which are intrinsic (motivators) and extrinsic (hygiene) factors. Theory
postulates that job satisfaction and/or is dissatisfaction is the function of two need systems.
Intrinsic factors are related to the job itself. Intrinsic factors seem to influence positively on
job satisfaction. The motivators include advancement, growth and development,
responsibility for work, challenging, recognition, and advancement. In other words, extrinsic
factors are closely related to the environment and condition of the work. The hygienes relate
to job dissatisfaction including supervision, company policy and administration, working
condition and interpersonal relation This theory has dominated in the study of job
satisfaction, and become a basic for development of job satisfaction assessment.
Grant, Christianson & Price (2007) globally different working organizations and
institutions has become a purpose of theoretic attention and wide research. Organizations
overall wellbeing is depicted as the way in which its function and worth are sensed by
workers of that organization. In addition, includes that workers’ bodily and psychological
health, level of happiness and societal wellbeing, which are all connected with the name job
satisfaction. Satisfaction of job is an outcome of worker’s observation of how healthy his/her
work providing those things that are considered as significant. Appraisal of work experience
is
17
defined as the enjoyable and optimistic state of an employee. An individual’s expectations
and his or her actual accomplishments affects on the job satisfaction and job dissatisfaction.
Herzberg et al. developed a two factor theory, according to two factor theory to which both
these work contentment and job discontent are the two split and from time to time ever not
related, phenomena, which should not be calculated on the same time. Two types of factors
are under this theory, intrinsic factors and extrinsic factors. Intrinsic factors are considered as
motivators or satisfiers and extrinsic factors are perceived as hygiene factors as dissatisfies.
Hancer & George (2003) showed fifty point two percent of the employees had low degree of
job satisfaction, where as twenty five point six percent showed a normal degree of work
satisfaction and twenty four point two percent showed a higher degree of work contentment.
Findings revealed significant difference in work contentment scores was establish among the
pairs inside the sub groups of age of the employee, occupation tenure, sex, and occupation
category. Workers who are highly filled with satisfaction with their occupations are carefully
weighed to be additional resistant to change of position with their organizations.
Spector (1997) presented that job satisfaction has high relevance for organizations because
job satisfaction is an indication of psychological wellness, organizations can take on a
practical situation in which workers’ behaviour would be expected to determine
organizational operations according to the workers’ level of occupation satisfaction or
dissatisfaction, and it can be an indicator of organizational operations.
Crossman & Abou-Zaki (2003) indicated that work satisfaction is not independent in every
job aspect along with that satisfaction with work with one part may lead to satisfaction with
another aspect. Woman workers were detected very less fulfilled by every aspect of job
except for salary. Employees by means of lower qualifications in education were slightest
fulfilled with their jobs and self-reported work presentation was found to boost with tenure.
He analysed it was found that, demographic variables are having a greater impact on the
employee satisfaction levels. Factors like pay, Pay, Promotion, and Supervision etc. are
having significant roles in deciding the satisfaction levels.
Schimdt (2007) examined the association amid contentment with employer provided place of
work training and on the whole occupation satisfaction of client get in touch with legislative
18
body. Results revealed that important rapport was found among occupation training
satisfaction and on the whole job satisfaction. Components of work training, with time spent
in training, training methodologies, and content, were determined to be important in their
bond to occupation training satisfaction, and trainees were importantly more filled with
satisfaction with the training they received when the methodology in employment was their
preferred one. On the basis of these results, conclusions were drawn and recommendations
for researchers and practitioners in the field of HRD were made.
Luthans (1988) examined that occupation satisfaction is frequently observed by how well the
result go beyond expectations and it act several connected attitudes such as occupation itself,
salary, endorsement opportunities, management and co-workers which are most vital
characteristics of a occupation about which individuals have effectual answer. Occupation
contentment is so significant that its nonexistence often leads to weariness and cut down
organizational commitment. Disgruntled workers are more likely to give up their occupations
or be not present than fulfilled workers. Individuals who take pleasure in their occupations
are appropriate to use time learning additional about it and linking with persons who are also
concerned. Work satisfaction can be optimistically connected to one’s choice to become
accustomed to changing situations even when situations are disappointing or disruptive. It
encompasses welcoming occupation and organizational alters, carry on working rather than
ceasing.
Belias & Koustelios (2014) found that research results revealed that these type of
organizational behaviours like lovingness amid workers, mutual trust, obedience and
resonance among workers and supervisors can be a important forecasting factors of the
occupation contentment experienced by workers. In addition, inside organization which are
elastic and accept the participative supervision type, with stress in communication and
workers’ honour, the second are more probable to be happy, happen afterwards as a
consequence in the organizations success.

CHAPTER-3
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Research Design
According to Jahoda, Deutshe and cook, “A Research design is the arrangement of collection
and analysis of data in a manner that aims to combine relevance to the research purpose with
economy in procedure”.
In this study I have used “Research design in case of descriptive research studies”, the design
studies must be rigid and not flexible and must focus attention on the following.
Descriptive research
Descriptive research includes surveys and fact-finding enquiries of different kinds. The major
purpose of descriptive research is description of the state of affairs, as it exists at present. The
main characteristics of this method are that the researcher has no control over the variables.
She/he can only report what is happened or what is happening.
Sample
Sample Size:60.
Sample size taken for the study is 80.
Sampling Technique
Sampling is a procedure to draw conclusion about the whole population by studying small
part of universe. In this study, “Non-probability or Non-random sampling method” is used.
Where the samples are gathered in a process that does that does not give all the individuals in
the population equal chances of being selected.
20
The sampling technique used in the study is “convenience sampling” is probably the most
common of all sampling techniques. With convenience sampling, the samples are selected
because they are accessible to the researcher. Subjects are chosen simply because they are
easy to recruit. This technique is considered easiest, cheapest and least time consuming.
1.Convenience Sampling
Convenience sampling also known as accidental sampling, or opportunity sampling. It is a
type of non-probability that involves the sample being drawn from that part of the population
that is close to hand. This type of sampling is most useful for pilot testing.
A convenience sample is a type of non-probability sampling method where the sample is
taken from a group of people easy to contact or to reach. For example, standing at a mall or a
grocery store and asking people to answer questions would be an example of a convenience
sample. This type of sampling is also known as grab sampling or availability sampling. There
are no other criteria to the sampling method except that people be available and willing to
participate. In addition, this type of sampling method does not require that a simple random
sample is generated, since the only criteria are whether the participants agree to participate.
Convenience sampling is not often recommended for research due to the possibility of
sampling error and lack of representation of population.
Statistical tools
Statistical tools constitute an integral part of research analysis. Hence, any analysis of data
complied should be subjected to relevant analysis so that meaningful conclusions could be
arrived at. The following are the statistical tools, which were applied for this project.
(Percentage method)
21
Percentage method
In this project percentage method test was used to know the accurate percentage of the data
taken, it is easy to graph out through the percentage of the data took, it is easy to graph out
through the percentage.
Percentage of Respondent = no. of respondents / total no. of respondents *100
Questionnaire
The questionnaire was used to collect the bulk of data. A list of questions is sent or given to
the person concerned with a request to answer the questions and return the questionnaire.
Questionnaires method was used t collect the data from respondents. While dealing with real
it is obvious that data at hand are inadequate collect that are appropriate. Depending upon the
source of information available, data can be classified as
1. Primary Data
2. Secondary Data
1. Primary data
Primary data are measurement observed as part of original study. The work of collecting data
by the researcher for the study is known as primary data. When the data used in a statistical
study was collected under the control and supervision of the concerned researcher such type
of data is referred as primary data.
Here in this research data is collected through questionnaire method.
22
2. Secondary data
When the researcher did not collect the data, but derived from the other sources through
internet and past record maintained by the company then such data is referred to secondary
data.
In my study data is collected through the company websites and past records maintained.
