Abstract

To define job satisfaction is a difficult task, because there are various definitions depicting different dimensions, but one frequently used is that job satisfaction is favourableness or unfavourableness with which the employees view their work. It results when there is an agreement between job characteristics and wants of an employee. It is expressed as the amount of confluence between one's expectations as compared to rewards. According to Sinha (1974) job satisfaction covers the satisfaction derived from being engaged in a piece of work, or in any pursuit of higher order. It is essentially related to human needs and their fulfillment through work. In fact, job satisfaction is generated by individual's perception of how well his job on the whole is satisfying his various needs
