This book was released on 2012-11-06 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Higher education systems have changed all over the world, but not all have changed in the same ways. Although system growth and so-called massification have been worldwide themes, there have been system-specific changes as well. It is these changes that have an important impact on academic work and on the opinions of the staff that work in higher education. The academic profession has a key role to play in producing the next generations of knowledge workers, and this task will be more readily achieved by a contented academic workforce working within well-resourced teaching and research institutions. This volume tells the story of academics’ opinions about the changes in their own countries. The Changing Academic Profession (CAP) survey has provided researchers and policy makers with the capacity to compare the academic profession around the world. Built around national analyses of the survey this book examines academics’ opinions on a range of issues to do with their job satisfaction. Following an introduction that considers the job satisfaction literature as it relates to higher education, country-based chapters examine aspects of job satisfaction within each country.

The study was guided by the following specific objectives: to establish the relationship between employee involvement and job satisfaction of academic staff; to examine the relationship between work environment and job satisfaction of academic staff; to find out the relationship between remuneration and job satisfaction of academic staff and to establish the relationship between recognition and job satisfaction of academic staff. A correlational, cross-sectional survey design was used to carry out the study. A sample of 162 respondents was systematically selected to participate in the study. Data were collected with the use of questionnaires. Frequencies and percentages were used to show the distribution of respondents on different items. Correlation and multiple regression were used to establish the relationships between the variables. The study findings empirically revealed that; employee involvement (r = 0.397 & p = 0.000); work environment (r = 0.525 & p = 0.000); remuneration (r = 0.389 & p = 0.000) and recognition (r = 0.362 & p = 0.000) have a positive significant relationship with job satisfaction. The study concluded that quality of work life enhances job satisfaction. Therefore, the researcher recommended that Makerere University management should involve academics when developing or revising the goals and objectives of the institution through workshops, so that suggestions of staff can form part of the development process, thus enabling successful implementation. Secondly, Makerere University should focus create a conducive working environment with adequate and relevant educational facilities alongside improved working relations and friendly employee policy. Thirdly, Makerere University should enhance the remuneration (e.g. fringe benefits, bonus payments) made to the academic staff in order to raise their job satisfaction levels.

This book was released on 2010-05 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study sought to discover job satisfaction factors of African American faculty at a historically black university and a predominantly white institution. Through the use of qualitative methods, African American faculty job satisfaction was examined using Linda Evan s reconceptualization of Herzberg s motivational hygiene theory. This theoretical framework provided a schema to explore the factors faculty were satisfied by, satisfied with, and dissatisfied with. Data were gathered through the use of semi-structured interviews of six faculty members from a historically black university and five from a predominantly white institution. Several themes emerged with the most salient being that African American faculty at the historically black university were satisfied by their work with students, satisfied with the flexibility of their schedules, and dissatisfied with their pay, workload, and lack of recognition. African American faculty at the predominantly white institution were satisfied by the programs and courses they developed, satisfied with their job s freedom and flexibility, and dissatisfied with the ideas of being micromanaged or working with dishonest people.

This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Job satisfaction aroused interest in the scholarly debates due to its importance and impact on organizational productivity. The study was motivated by the situation in Tanzanian universities over the past three decades, where universities encountered numerous challenges, including funding shortage which negatively impacts teaching and research functions in universities. Consequently, labour strikes by academic staff have been on the rise, demanding better terms of service as they are dissatisfied with recognition, low wages, job security and promotion practices which ultimately cause high job turnover as number of academic staff pursue other seemingly financially promising non-academic jobs such as politics. The key objective of the study was: to examine the extent to which demographic characteristics of academic staff influence job satisfaction in universities in Tanzania. The study was based on Herzberg's Two-Factor theory. The study is significant because findings may contribute to universities towards enhancing the motivation strategies so as to make academic staff satisfied and hence perform better in teaching and research job functions. The study adopted cross-sectional survey, which embraced both qualitative and quantitative approaches. The data for this study were collected using questionnaires from 411 academic staff from three public and three private universities. Purposive sampling technique was used to select universities based on the following factors; geographical location, mode of academic programmes delivery, year of establishment and size of the university. The findings indicated that the academic rank had influence on recognition, remuneration, responsibility and promotion satisfaction indicators.
