INTRODUCTION
BRIEF HISTORY

In 1932, salesman Herman Lay opened a snack food operation in Nashville, Tennessee.[1] In
1938, he purchased the Atlanta, Georgia-based potato chip manufacturer "Barrett Food
Company", renaming it "H.W. Lay Lingo & Company". Lay crisscrossed the southern United
States, selling the product from the trunk of his car.
The business shortened its name to "the Lay's Lay Lingo Company" in 1944 and became the
first snack food manufacturer to purchase television commercials, using Bert Lahr as its
celebrity spokesperson.[2]
In 1961, the Frito Company, founded by Charles E. Doolin, merged with Lay’s, forming Frito-
Lay Inc., a snack food giant with combined sales of over $127 million annually, which was then
the highest sales revenue earned by any manufacturer. Shortly thereafter, Lay's introduced
what became its best-known slogan: "betcha can't eat just one". Sales of the chips became
international, with marketing assisted by a number of celebrity endorsers. Annual revenues for
Frito-Lay exceeded $180 million by 1965, when the company had more than 8,000 employees
and 46 manufacturing plants.[3]
In 1965, Frito-Lay merged with the Pepsi-Cola Company to form PepsiCo, Inc. In 1991, the
company introduced a new formulation of their chip that was crisper and kept fresher longer.
Shortly thereafter, the company introduced the "Wavy Lay's" products to grocery shelves, with
a national rollout in 1994.[4] In the mid- to late 1990s, Lay's introduced a lower-
calorie baked variety, and a fat-free variety (Lay's WOW chips) that contained the fat
substitute olestra.
In the 2000s, the company introduced “kettle-cooked” varieties, as well as a more highly
processed variety (Lay's Stax) that was intended to compete with Pringles,[5] and several
differently flavored varieties.
In 2012, Frito-Lay products comprised 59% of the United States savory snack-food market.[6]
In April 2019, PepsiCo's Indian subsidiary sued four farmers in Gujarat, India for copyright
infringement, claiming they were growing a variety of potatoes trademarked by the company
for exclusive use in its Lay's potato chips.[7][8] Two years later, the ruling was done in the
farmers' favour under the Protection of Plant Varieties and Farmers' Rights Act, 2001.[9]
CHAPTER – 2

INTRODUCTION OF TOPIC
JOB SATISFACTION

INTRODUCTION-:
Job satisfaction is the favorableness or un-
favorableness with which the employee views his work. It expresses the
amount of agreement between one's expectation of the job and reward that
job provides. Job satisfaction is the part of life satisfaction. The nature of
one's environment of job is an important part of life as job satisfaction
influences one's general life satisfaction. Job satisfaction, thus, Is the result of
various attitudes possessed by an employee. In a narrow sense, these
attitudes are related to the job under condition with such specific factors
such as wages. Supervisors of employment condition of work, social relation
on the job, prompt settlement of grievances fair treatment by employer.
However, more comprehensive approach requires that many factors are to
be included before a complete understanding of job satisfaction can be
obtained. Such factors as employee's age, health, temperature, desire level
of aspiration should be considered. Further his family relationship, social
status, recreational outlets, activity in organizations etc.

contribution ultimately to job satisfaction.


MEANING
DEFINITIONS:-
“BLUM and NAYLOR”
Job satisfaction is defined , as it is result of various attitudes the persons 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.”

HISTORY OF JOB SATISFACTION


The term job satisfaction was brought to lime light by hop pock (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 satistied with my job". Such a desecription indicate the
variety of variables that influence the şatistacton 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 l& job status & priding group cohesiveness One of the biggest
preludes to the study of job saisfaction was the Hawhorne 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
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 tends to be satisfied with their jobs and the people who are
satisfied their 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 with the
organization
IMPORTANCE TO WORKER ORGANISATION
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 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 show at least low correlation
between high morale and high productivity and it does seems 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% of
their effort for very long. Through fear is a powerful motivator, is also a temporary one,
and 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."
FACTORS OF JOB SATISFACTION
Hoppock, the earliest investigator in this field, in 1935 soggested 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

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
EFFECTS OF LOW JOB SATISFACTION

 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

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 is 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
predict 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
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.
MODELS OF JOB SATISFACTION

Two Factor Theory (Motivation – Hyginene


Theory)(Feedback Herzberg’s)
Job characterstics Model (Hackman &Oldham)
Rating scale
Personal interviews
Job enlargement
Job rotation
Two Factor Theory (Motivation – Hyginene Theory)

Fedrick hertzberg Tow factor theory (also known as Motivator


hygiene theory) attempts to explain sacisfaction and motivation in
work place. This theory states that satisfaction and dissatisfaction
are given by differrent factors- motivation and hygiene factor,
respectively.

Motivating factors are those aspects of the job that make people
want to perform, and provide people satisfaction. Thesemotivating
factor are considered to be intrinsic to the job,or the work carried
out. Motivating factor include aspects of the working environment
such as pay,company policies,supervisory practices, and other
working conditions.

While Hertzberg model has simulated much research, researchers


have been unable
Job characterstics Model (Hackman &Oldham)

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.

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.

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.

PERSONAL INTERVIEWS
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.

JOB ROTATION
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 Derform a
number of different jobs in the event of an emergency

limited and it was not possible to get detailed information regarding various
aspects of job satisfaction.

Some of the things were kept confidential according to the policies of the
company therefore details on various aspects like conflict resolving and
promotion , salary etc . was not provided .

Some bias might have inadvertently crept into the investigation though best
of efforts have been made to avoid such biases in the study.

 employees are neutral on the salaries paid to them.
 There is need to improve the leave system, only 15% respondents said that they
are satisfies the leave system.
 48% of the respondents said that their efforts are often valued.
 46% of the respondents feel that they are seldom allowed to participate in
decision making
 54% of the respondents said no which means job does not give them enough
opportunity individual growth or achieving individual goals.
 58% of the respondents find the style of supervision to be benevolent and 5% are
highly dissatisfied by the supervision style and find it to be exploitative.

Conclusion
In conclusion, the findings of the project report reveal a mixed perception
among employees regarding various aspects of their work environment.

1. While a significant portion of respondents express satisfaction with the


nature of their work and perceive job security as robust,
2. There are notable areas requiring attention and improvement. The
mismatch between job assignments and employees' qualifications,
dissatisfaction with the leave system, and limited opportunities for
individual growth and participation in decision-making indicate areas
where organizational policies and practices could be enhanced.
3. Furthermore, the neutral stance on salaries and the perceived lack of
promotion opportunities underscore the importance of addressing
employee concerns to foster a more conducive and fulfilling work
environment.
4. Despite these challenges, positive aspects such as friendly relations
with subordinates and benevolent supervision styles provide a
foundation upon which the organization can build to cultivate a more
engaged and motivated workforce.
5. Thus, the findings serve as valuable insights for the organization to
strategize and implement measures aimed at enhancing employee
satisfaction, fostering professional development, and promoting a
culture of inclusivity and empowerment.
