Download or read book A Study on the Relationship between Employee s Job Satisfaction and their on Job Performance written by Sumat Rajbhandari and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2017-06-14 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2016 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 67, , language: English, abstract: The research study has been intended to examine the relationship between employees’ job satisfaction and their on job performance and its impact on retention, turnover and execution evaluation framework at the Business Universal Development Bank Ltd. in Kathmandu, Nepal. Because of new regulations being recommended by NRB (Central Bank) for expanding four times capital of the banks and financial institutions (BFIs) to make their capital base stronger, BUD Bank has been confronting difficulties of (i) expanding four times its paid capital and (ii) channelizing the credits all the more proficiently and effectively. In the request to adapt to these circumstances, the employees need to expect the basic role by taking a couple of profitable and capable drives. For this, the management needs to review the employees’ present job satisfaction, and its impact on their performance, retention, and turnover for taking appropriate measures for further change on upgrading their execution to extend profitability. It has been endeavoured to audit different articles/ international journals displayed by various specialists/researchers/scholars on the points i.e. job satisfaction, and its impacts on job performance, retention, turnover, and performance evaluation. It is found that JS has the significant relationship with JP, retention, turnover, and performance evaluation. As indicated by authors Locke (1976); Olusola, Funmilola and Sola (2013); and Velnampy and Sivesan (2012), there are six to ten variables of job satisfaction and these have positive impacts on job performance, retention, turnover, and execution assessment. In any case, there are considered six variables (work assigned, salary, promotion, supervision, colleagues, and working environment) of job satisfaction proposed by Locke (1976) for this study. These variables are regular to all types of organisations. Olusola, Funmilola and Sola (2013) find in their study that these six variables of JS have significant positive effect on JP demonstrating the entirely great relationship between JS and JP.

Book Employee Turnover in the Public Sector

Download or read book Employee Turnover in the Public Sector written by Oscar Miller, Jr. and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-06-26 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this title, first published in 1996, the author uses the locus of control personality construct to show how workers who believe they can influence life events (internals) perceive and evaluate work conditions differently than workers who believe that life events are beyond their control (externals). The author also develops a social exchange model of quitting which takes advantage of the positive (job reward) and negative (job cost) qualities inherent in work conditions. Workers tend to quit their jobs when job costs outweigh job rewards when better alternatives exist. Moreover, personality interacts with employees’ evaluation of job costs and rewards and quitting behaviour. This book will be of interest to students of business studies and human resource management.

Book Job Satisfaction from Herzberg s Two Factor Theory Perspective

Download or read book Job Satisfaction from Herzberg s Two Factor Theory Perspective written by Alikira Richard and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2012 in the subject Business economics - Personnel and Organisation, printed single-sided, grade: none, -, course: Organization behaviour, language: English, abstract: According to Suzan M, heartfield, Employee satisfaction is a terminology used to describe whether employees are happy and contented and fulfilling their desires and needs at work. Many measures purport that employee satisfaction is a factor in employee motivation, employee goal achievement, and positive employee morale in the workplace. Whereas job satisfaction is generally positive the organization's success, it can also be a downer if mediocre employees stay because they are satisfied with your work environment. Several factors including; treating employees with respect, providing regular employee recognition, empowering employees, offering above industry-average benefits and compensation, providing employee perks and company activities, and positive management within a success framework of goals, measurements, and expectations all contribute to an employee's level of satisfaction. Employee satisfaction is looked at in areas such as: management, understanding of mission and vision, empowerment, teamwork, communication, and coworker interaction. Some of the signs of lack of employee satisfaction are high levels of absenteeism and staff turnover and can affect the organization's bottom line, as recruitment and retraining take their toll. But few organizations have made job satisfaction a top priority, perhaps because they have failed to understand the significant opportunity that lies in front of them. Satisfied employees on the other hand tend to be more productive, creative and committed to their employers, and recent studies have shown a direct correlation between staff satisfaction and their performance. For example, employers who can create work environments that attract, motivate and retain hard-working individuals will be better positioned to succeed in a competitive enviro

Book Responsible Restructuring

Download or read book Responsible Restructuring written by Wayne F Cascio and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2002-09-09 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Firms that restructure through downsizing are not more profitable than those that don't, and often end up hurting themselves in the long run. Responsible Restructuring draws on the results of an eighteen-year study of S&P 500 firms to prove that it makes good business sense to restructure responsibly-to avoid downsizing and instead regard employees as assets to be developed rather than costs to be cut. Wayne Cascio explodes thirteen common myths about downsizing, detailing its negative impact on profitability, productivity, quality, and on the morale, commitment, and even health of survivors. He uses real-life examples to illustrate successful approaches to responsible restructuring used by companies such as Charles Schwab, Compaq, Cisco, Motorola, Reflexite, and Southwest Airlines. And he offers specific, step-by-step advice on what to do-and what not to do-when developing and implementing a restructuring strategy that, unlike layoffs, leaves the organization stronger and better able to face the challenges ahead.

Book Employee turnover intention  Empirical evidence from the Savings and Loans Companies in Ghana

Download or read book Employee turnover intention Empirical evidence from the Savings and Loans Companies in Ghana written by Michael Asiedu Gyensare and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2016-07-20 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2013 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Miscellaneous, grade: A, University of Ghana, Legon (University of Ghana Business School), course: MPhil Human Resource Management, language: English, abstract: The study examined the relationship among antecedents, employee turnover intention and outcome variables. First, it was proposed that pay satisfaction, job satisfaction, affective commitment, transformational leadership, transactional leadership, psychological climate, normative commitment and continuance commitment would antecede employee turnover intention. Next, turnover intention was expected to influence perceptions of absenteeism. Finally, thoughts of quitting was presented as a moderator between turnover intention and absenteeism as acceptable or accountable work behaviour. A nonexperimental, cross-sectional, descriptive correlational design was adopted for the study. Also, the multi-stage sampling method was used to select the three hundred and forty (340) employees who completed the survey instrument. Hypotheses were tested through correlational and hierarchical regression analytic procedures. The antecedent variables were all significant and inversely related to employee turnover intention and employee turnover intention on the other hand was also significantly related to acceptable absence legitimacy. However, for the turnover intention model, the hierarchical regression analysis results indicated that affective commitment, normative commitment, pay satisfaction, job satisfaction and transformational leadership predicted employees intention to quit. For the absenteeism model, the hierarchical regression analysis results showed that turnover intention did not influence employees’ perception of acceptable and accountable absence legitimacy and thoughts of quitting did not also moderate the postulated relationship. It was concluded that management in the SLCs should pay utmost attention to employees pay satisfaction, job satisfaction, affective commitment, normative commitment and transformational leadership in order to lessen or completely eliminate the high turnover rate in the NBFIs.
