Download or read book A Study on Job Satisfaction Motivation and Organizational Citizenship Behavior written by Khadija Mushtaq and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Banking in Pakistan is a tough and hectic job now a day due to a number of reasons. Therefore, it may have become difficult for managers to retain bank employees and create job satisfaction as well as motivation between them thus enabling them to perform extra-role behaviors. In this regard, a conceptual model was developed using existing literature with an aim to study the associations among motivation, job satisfaction and the five factors of OCB through a cross sectional study by using deductive research approach.Stratified Multistage Cluster Sampling was used to collect data from 236 bank employees of District Gujrat, Pakistan through questionnaire survey. The aforesaid data was analyzed using Structure Equation Modelling (SEM). Initially, results of Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) established all the factors of the conceptual model for SEM except Sportsmanship. Afterwards, SEM was applied to test the conceptual model (excluding sportsmanship). The results indicated that motivation had a positive significant relationship not only with Job Satisfaction but also with all confirmed factors of OCB except courtesy. Similarly, job satisfaction had a positive significant relationship with all confirmed factors of OCB except civic virtue.The results of this study may be carefully generalized to the banking sector keeping all other factors constant, e.g. culture. Additionally, it was observed that there is a lot more to be explored about OCB therefore the present study provides new directions for the future researchers for including more independent variables (i.e. Job Attitudes, leadership styles, Intrinsic & Extrinsic Motivation etc.) on different types of populations.

Book Non Standard Employment and Quality of Work

Download or read book Non Standard Employment and Quality of Work written by Tindara Addabbo and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-10-12 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The international literature on non-standard employment has mostly focussed on its impact on employment, and more recently on working and living conditions. This volume explores these issues with special reference to Italy. Italy is characterized by very low participation rates (particularly women’s), a high degree of fragmentation of labour contracts and a very intense non-standard work diffusion that make this context a particularly interesting case for analysis. New elements of discussion are provided with reference to the interaction of non-standard work, employment probability and living conditions. Interesting insights on the impact of non-standard work on the transition to stable employment and workers’ careers emerge, suggesting a possible failure of companies’ internal systems of work evaluation. The effects on labour productivity and on companies’ performance are analysed. Within this framework, a new perspective on quality of work is suggested.

Download or read book The Relationship of Job Satisfaction with Organizational Citizenship Behavior and Its Implications on Customer Satisfaction written by Ma. Kristina B. Palma and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Individual and group behavior has been studied over time by different scholars involving various loci (Ackfedt & Coote, 2005; Miles & Mangold, 2005; Yi & Gong, 2012). Studies revealed that besides employees' daily responsibilities, they engage in extra-role behaviors that help their employer organization. Consumer research literature revealed that these behaviors contribute greatly to customer satisfaction. This study employed a correlational approach to determine the interaction between organizational citizenship behaviors (OCB) and job satisfaction of the employees of Microtel Inn and Suites Philippines. Customer satisfaction was measured as an independent variable and was interpreted based on the results. Two sets of questionnaires were distributed among employees and customers. The employee questionnaire focused on OCB and job satisfaction while the customer questionnaire focused on customer satisfaction. Focus group discussion was employed to further validate the results of the study. Thus, this paper shows the other perspectives of OCB in the workplace, contrary to the findings of other researches which focused on the positive effects of OCB.
