towards one’s job, the difference between the amount of
reward workers receive
and the amount
they believe they should receive.

every organization, without
employee no work can be done. So employee’s
satisfaction is very important. Employees will be more satisfied if they get what they expected, job satisfaction relates to inner feelings
of workers. The organization may give importance
to certain factors such as Canteen, rest room facilities, rewards, recognition and promotion
policy so that satisfaction of the employees may be improved further.
