1. INTRODUCTION
Human is resource considered to be the most valuable asset is any organization. It is the
sum-total of inherent abilities acquire knowledge and skill represented by the talents and
aptitudes of employed persons who comprise executive supervisor and the rank and file
employees. It may be noted hear that human resource should be utilized to the maximum
possible extended in order to achieve individuals and organizational goals. It is thus the
employee perform ultimately decide and attainment of goals however employee
performance large extend influenced by motivation and job satisfaction. The term relates to
the total relationship between an individual and the employer for which he is paid.
satisfaction does mean the simple feeling state accompanying the attainment of any goals;
the end state is feeling accompanying the attainment by and the impulse its . Satisfaction
does mean absence of motivation at work. Research workers differently described the
factor contributing the job satisfaction and job dissatisfaction. The survey made regarding
the job satisfaction in Sunrich Aqua Ltd. will facilitate and enables the management lo

the causes for satisfaction and dissatisfaction among the employees. So this is the most
effective and selective instrument for diagnosing and peeping into the employee's
problems.
Job satisfaction survey can give the most valuable information the perceptions and causes.
For satisfaction/dissatisfaction among the employees attitude towards job satisfaction may
be either positive or negative. This positive feeling can be re-in forced and negative feelings
can be rectified. This survey can be treated as the most effective and efficient way, which
makes the workers to express their inner and real feelings undoubtedly, for any future
course of action/development, which involves employee's participation, is considered. The
management will get a picture their employee's acceptance and readiness.
This survey also enables to avoid misinterpretations and helps management in solving
problems effectively. It is the observed during study some of the employees accepted the
proposal survey research. A perfectly contentment and satisfaction motivates an
employees to be confident with a high moral, it is an asset to organization as a whole. Thus
the high motivation and morale of an employee make him to remain in the organization
into encourage him to face cut throat competition and gives him enough dynamism to face
challenges Very human being possess him own unique resource, it properly channels it by
supportive and the supplement, ultimately for achieving organization goals, As proper

breathing and diet is necessary to healthy human being so as is contentment to the job
satisfaction. This contentedness ultimately acts as a key factor to human resource
development.
The further of scientific management Taylors (1911) approach to job satisfaction was
based on a most programmatic & essentially pessimistic philosophy that main in
motivation by money alone. That the workers are essentially 'stupid & phlegmatic' & that
they would be satisfied with work if they get higher economic benefit from it. But with the
passage of time Taylor solely monetary approach has been changed to a more humanistic
approach has come a long way from a simple explanation based on money to a more
realistic but complex approach to job satisfaction New dimensions of knowledge are added
every day & with increasing understanding of the new variables & their inter play, the field
of job satisfaction has become difficult to comprehend.
The term Job satisfaction was brought to limelight by Hoppock (1935). He reviewed 32
studies on job satisfaction conducted prior to 1933 & observed that job satisfaction is a
combination of psychological, physiological & environmental circumstances that cause a
person to say. "I am satisfied with my job'. Lock defines job satisfaction as a "pleasurable or
positive emotional state resulting from the appraisal of one's job or job experiences". To
the extent that a person's job fulfills his dominant need & is consistent with his
expectations & values, the job will be satisfying.
b) Personal variables.
a) ORGANIZATIONAL VARIABLES:
1. OCCUPATIONAL LEVEL:
The higher the level of the job, the greater is satisfaction of the individual this is
because higher level the jobs carry greater prestige and self-control.
2. JOB CONTENT:
Greater the variation in job content and the less repetitiveness with which the tasks
must be performed, the greater is the satisfaction of the individual involved.
Page 4

3. CONSIDERATE LEADERSHIP:
All other things being equal these two variables are positively related lo job satisfaction.
Here the question is: when is interaction in the work group a source of job satisfaction
and when it is not? Interaction is most satisfying when.
(a) It results in the cognition that other person's attitudes are similar to one's own.
Since this permits the ready calculability of the others behavior and constitutes a
validation of one's self;
B) PERSONAL VARIABLES:
For some people, it appears most jobs will be dissatisfying irrespective of the
organizational condition involved, whereas for others, most jobs will be satisfying.
Personal variables like age, educational level, sex, etc. are responsible for this
difference.
(1) AGE:
Most of the evidence on the relation between age and job satisfaction bolding such
factor occupational level constant. Seems to indicate that there is generally a positive
relationship between the two variables up to the pre-retirement years and then there is
sharp decrease in satisfaction. An individual aspires for better and more prestigious
jobs in later years of his life. Finding his channels for advancement blocked his
satisfaction declines.
With educational with occupational level held constant there is a negative relationship
between the references group which the level and job satisfaction. The higher the
education, the higher individual looks to for guidance to evaluate his job rewards.
Page 5

3) ROLE PERCEPTION:
Different individuals hold different perceptions about their role, i.e. the kind of
activities and behaviors they should engage in to perform their job successfully. Job
satisfaction is determined by this factor also. The more accurate the role perception of
an individual, the greater his satisfaction.
(4) SEX:
There is as yet consistent evidence as to whether women are more satisfied with their
jobs no than men, holding such factors as job and occupational level constant. One
might predict this to be the case, considering the generally low occupational aspiration
of women.

Satisfied employees are the ones who are extremely loyal towards their organization and
tick to it even in the worst scenario.
They do not work out of any compulsion but because they dream of taking their
organization to a new level. Employees need to be passionate towards their work and
passion comes only when employees are satisfied with their job and organization on the
whole.
Employee satisfaction leads to a positive ambience at the workplace. People seldom crib or
complain and concentrate more on their work.
The first benefit of employee satisfaction is that individuals hardly think of leaving their
current jobs. Employee satisfaction is essential to ensure higher revenues for the
organization.
Satisfied employees tend to adjust more and handle pressure with ease as compared to
frustrated ones. Employees who are not satisfied with their jobs would find a problem in
over small thing and be too rigid. They find it extremely difficult to compromise or cope up
with the changing times, On the other hand, employees who are happy with their jobs
willing participate in training programs and are eager to learn new technologies, software's
which would eventually help them in their professional career. Satisfied employees accept
challenges with a big smile and deliver even in the worst of circumstances.
The employees do not show any interest in filling the questionnaire because they
thought that it is not beneficial for them.
Due to busy with their work, co-operation of the respondent were less.

3. THEORETICAL BACKGROUND:
3.1 WHAT IS EMPLOYEE SATISFACTION?
Employee satisfaction is the individual employee's general attitude towards the job. is also
an employee's cognitive and affective evaluation of his or her job. Several factor such
Compensation and benefit, promotions, training, work tasks, coworkers, supervisors. Etc.
affects the job satisfaction of employees. A satisfied employee is a valuable asset for the
company the concept of job satisfaction traditionally has been of great: interest to social
scientists concerned with the problems of work in an industrial society. (Spector. 1997) A
number of consequences have been shown to result from job satisfaction/dissatisfaction,
both with respect to the workers' psychological well-being and with respect to the effective
functioning of organizations. Despite the large number of studies that have dealt with these
issues however, there has been little commutation of knowledge much of this difficulty
stems from problems in comparing studies and estimating trends due to difference in
measurement of job satisfaction, sampled populations and time periods of these,
differences in measurement techniques are especially problematic since a multitude of
indicators have been developed (Spector, 1997) and it is questionable whether they all
measure the same thing. An illustration of this is the various controversial research results
regarding to the relationship between job satisfaction and several demographic variables,
such as age and gender. (Snyder and Dietrich, 1992; Ang, Goh and Koh, 1993) So research is
necessary to examine the different ways of measuring job satisfaction. Such knowledge
would help researchers in assessing the dependence of their inferences regarding the
causes and consequences of job satisfaction on the indicators they have used to measure
the concept, and would thus facilitate the comparison of research findings. Job satisfaction
is closely related to the gratification of needs. It is composed of effective. cognitive and
behavioral elements. These elements vary in air intensity and consistency from one
individual to another. Thus, job satisfaction is the satisfaction is the satisfaction derived
from any pursuit directed by the process of fulfillment of the needs. It is the favorableness
or un-favorableness with which employees view their work. Results from specific attitudes
of employees in three areas viz.. Specific job factor. And individual adjustment on the job
and group relationship. Job satisfaction may refer either to a person a group considering
job satisfaction at the overall attitude of well-being with regard to job and its environment.
It is not difficult to know how an employee feels about his job The feeling about job is
directly affected by the job factors like salary, kind of work performed. Supervision,
working conditions opportunity for advancement etc. However, the alone some factor
affecting job satisfaction are not restricted to the on-the-job environment alone Some
factors pertaining to life away expectations, from work's are housing conditions. Health,
temperament desire expectation neurotic tendencies, unconscious conflicts etc. Therefore,
Page 18
SCHOOL OF MANAGEMENT SCIENCE, SRTMUN, SUB-CENTRE Department of MBA
it possible to effect of an individual's personal and social adjustment on job satisfaction, job
satisfaction has important implications on quality of work experience, Employees' mental
health and physical adjustment ultimately, it may have a direct or indirect effect on
organizational effectiveness influencing productivity, absenteeism, turn-over and other
aspect of employee's behavior. However, its measurement poses complex problems. An
interesting approach is to find out the difference between what an employee expects about
a particular factor and his actual experience with that factor the differential gap identified
by employee along with the importance attached to the factor by him gives a clear
understanding extent and nature of the his job satisfaction.
Another approach is the appraisal of one's perceived job values which sure congruent with
the basic needs. The study of job satisfaction is replete with valuable concepts. But these
concepts have been updated in the passage time. To have an understanding of the nature of
job satisfaction some important approaches have been presented here. The early
approaches to study the job satisfaction have focused on determining the proportion of
satisfied and dissatisfied workers. They have attempted to identify the determinants of job
satisfaction. Confining themselves to the examination of social-economic and demographic
characteristics like age, education, length of service, marital status etc., this inquiry has led
to the development of job context oriented approaches. Job contextual factors are the
factors surrounding the job like pay, working condition, job security etc. with the increased
interest in various aspects of the job there has been a change in the focus from the job
contextual factors to the factors relating to job content. Job content factors are extrinsic to
the job and are environment centered. They are recognition, responsibility, growth,
advancement and achievement. Both contextual and content approaches failed to provide
complete meaning to job satisfaction. Hence, individual differences' approaches have been
developed. These approaches focused on the needs of the individual, his expectations and
personality. Job satisfaction was considered as a function of extent to which worker
fulfilled by his job. The job characteristics models Propounded by Hackman and Lawler and
Hackman and Oldham have postulated that employee with high growth need strength
would experience more hob satisfaction than the employee with low growth need strength.
Though this the model have considerate the job characteristics which are related to
technology, they have ignored the social climate of a workplace.
To fill up gap, social-technical systems an approach technical as well has been made
Popular. According to this determine as social facts of a work place were considered as
factors that job the job satisfaction. These approch suggest the dynamic nature of the
concept of job satisfaction.

4. HIERARCHY OF NEEDS:
Although commonly known in the human motivation literature, Maslow's' needs hierarchy
theory was one of the first theories to examine the important contributors to job
satisfaction. The theory suggests that human needs form a five-level hierarchy consisting of
physiologic needs, safety, belongingness/love, esteem. and self-actualization. Maslow's
hierarchy of needs postulates that there are essential needs that need to be met first (such
as, physiological needs and safety). Before more complex needs can be met (such as,
belonging and esteem).
Page 20
SCHOOL OF MANAGEMENT SCIENCE, SRTMUN, SUB-CENTRE Department of MBA
everything they are capable of becoming although it could be seen as separate, the
progressions from one step to the next all contribute to the process of self-actualization.
Therefore, organizations looking to improve employee job satisfaction should attempt to
meet the basic needs of employees before progressing to address higher-order needs.
However, more recently this approach becoming less popular as it fails to consider the
cognitive process of the employee and, in general, lacks empirical supporting evidence, In
addition, others have found fault with the final stage of self-actualization. The lack of a clear
definition and conceptual understanding of self-actualization, paired with a difficulty of
measuring it makes it difficult to measure what the final goal is or when it has been
achieved.
Because both the hygiene and motivational factors are viewed as independent, it is possible
that employees are neither satisfied nor dissatisfied. This theory postulates that when
hygiene factors are low the employee is dissatisfied, but when these factors are high it
means the employee is not dissatisfied (or neutral, but not necessarily satisfied whether or
not an employee is satisfied is dependent on the motivator factors. Moreover, it is thought
that when motivators are met the employee is thought to be satisfied. This separation may
aid in accounting for the complexity of an employee's feelings, as they might not feel both
satisfied and dissatisfied at the same time; or neither satisfied nor dissatisfied. Whilst the
Motivator Hygiene theory was crucial in first distinguishing job satisfaction from
dissatisfaction, the theory itself has received little empirical support. Herzberg's original
Page 21
SCHOOL OF MANAGEMENT SCIENCE, SRTMUN, SUB-CENTRE Department of MBA
study has been criticized for having been conducted with a weak methodology. As a result,
subsequent attempts to test this theory have obtained mixed results with some researchers
supporting it and others not. The concept of job satisfaction has been developed in many
ways by amity different researchers and practitioners One of the most widely used
definition in organization research is that Locke (1976), who defines job satisfaction as a
pleasurable or positive emotional state resulting from the appraisal of one's job or job
experience others have defined it as simply how content an individual is with his or her
job: whether he or she likes the job or not. In assessed at both the global level (whether or
not the individual is satisfied with the job overlay), or at the fact level (whether or not the
individual is satisfied with different aspects of the job), Spector (997) lists 14 common
facets: Appreciation. Communication. Co-workers, Fringe benefits. Job conditions, Nature of
the work, organization. Personal growth. Policies and procedures. Promotion
opportunities, Recognition, Security, and Supervision. A more recent definition of the
concept of job satisfaction from and Judge (2003), is Hulling who have noted that job
satisfaction includes multidimensional psychological responses to an individual's job, and
that these personal responses have cognitive (evaluative), affective emotional), and
behavioral components. Job satisfaction sales vary in the extent to which they assess the
affective feelings about the job or the cognitive assessment of the Affective job satisfaction
is a subjective construct representing an emotional feeling individuals have amount their
job. Hence, affective job satisfaction for individuals reflects the degree of pleasure or
happiness their job in general induces, Cognitive job satisfaction is a more objective and
logical evaluation of various facets of a job. Cognitive job satisfaction can be one-
dimensional if it comprises evaluation of just one facet of a job, such as pay or maternity
leave, or multidimensional if two or more facets of a job are simultaneously evaluated.
Cognitive job satisfaction does not assess the degree of pleasure or happiness that arises
from specific job facets, but rather gauges the extent to which those job facets are judged by
the job holder to be satisfactory in comparison with objectives they themselves set with
other jobs. While cognitive job satisfaction might help to bring about affective job
satisfaction, the two constructs are distinct, not necessarily directly related, and have
different accident and consequences. Job satisfaction also be seen within the broader
context of the range of issues which can affect an individual's experience of work, or their
quality of working life. Job satisfaction can be understood in terms of its relationships with
other key factors, such as general well-being, at work, control at work, home-work
interface, and working conditions. A study title “analyze of factors affecting job satisfaction
of the employee public and private sector”. In India concluded that in in India employee
tends to love their job if they get what they believe is an important attribute of a good job

satisfied with their job except for few like mail in common sector and female in educational
sector total job satisfaction level of the mail is found to be higher than that of woman. Total
job satisfaction level in manufacturing sector is found to be very low.
The assessment of job satisfaction through employee announce survey become common
place in 1930’s. Although prior that time there was beginning interest in employee attitude
there were only a handful of study published Latham bud-worth note that are in 1934 was
one first psychologist to used newly developed attitude measurement technique to assist
factory worker attitudes. They also not that in 1935 HOPPOK conducted a study focused
explicitly on job satisfaction hat is affected by both the nature of the job and relationship
with co-workers supervisors job satisfaction can be indicative a work behavior such as
organizational citizenship , and withdrawal behaviors such as absenteeism, turn over.
Further, job satisfaction can partly mediate the relationship of personality variable deviant
work behavior.
One common research finding is that job satisfaction corrected with life satisfaction. This
co-relation is the reciprocal, meaning people who are satisfied with the life tend to be
satisfied with their job and people who are satisfied with their job tend to be satisfied with
life, however some research has found that job satisfaction is not significantly related to
life satisfaction when other variable such as non-work satisfaction and core sale evaluation
are taken into an important finding for organizations to note is that job satisfaction has a
rather tenuous correlation to productivities on the job. This is vittles piece of information
research and business, as the idea that job satisfaction and job performance are directly
related to one another is obtained sited in the media in some non-academic literature. A
recent meta-analysis found surprisingly low correlation between job satisfaction and
performance. Further the Meta analyzing the relationship between can be moderated by

There are two basic views of satisfaction and performance, and they are inverted to one
another. One believes that satisfaction leads to performance, while the other believes
performance leads to satisfaction. In effect, we are saying if someone is happy with their
job they will perform better, but in order to be satisfied, they have to perform in their job to
get that satisfaction. It is somewhat of a revolving door, and again, it is hard to distinguish
between whether satisfaction drives performance or if performance drives satisfaction.
Regardless of your viewpoint, it does not take a lot of thought to realize that if someone a
high level of job satisfaction, they will probably have has other hand, if someone is a high
level of performance. On the high level of performance. not satisfied with their job, they
probably will not have the same.
Job satisfaction is the level of contentment a person feels guarding his or her job. This
feeling is mainly based on an individual's perception of satisfaction Job satisfaction can be
influenced by a person's ability to complete required tasks, the level of communication in
an organization, and the way management treats employees.
Affective job satisfaction and emanative job satisfaction Affective job satisfaction is a
person's emotional feeling about the job as a whole. Cognate job satisfaction is how
satisfied employees feel concerning s aspect of their job, such as pay, hours or benefits.
Page 25
SCHOOL OF MANAGEMENT SCIENCE, SRTMUN, SUB-CENTRE Department of MBA
Despite widespread belief up the contrary, studies have shown that high performing
employees do not feel satiated with their job simply as a result of to high level titles
increased pay. This lack of correlation is an significant concern for organization. Since.
Studies also reveal that the implementation of pose HR practices in financial gain for the
organizational. The cost of employees is quite high, and creating satisfaction relevant to the
return on this investment is paramount simply put “positive work environments and
increased shareholder value are directly related.”
Some factors of job satisfaction may rank as more important than others, depending on
either on each workers needs and personal and professional goals. To create benchmark
for measuring and ultimately creating job satisfaction, managers in an organization can
employ proven methods such as the Job Descriptive Index on or the Minnesota satisfaction
Questionnaire These assessments help management define job satisfaction objectively
(MSQ). Important Factors Typically, five factors can be used to measure and influence job
satisfaction:

6. REVIEW OF LITERATURE:
Job satisfaction represents one of the most complex areas facing today's managers when it
comes to managing their employees Many studies have demonstrated an unusually large
impact on the job satisfaction on motivation of workers, while the level of motivation has
an impact on productivity, and hence also on performance of business organizations.
Unfortunately in our region, job satisfaction has not still received the proper attention from
neither scholars nor managers of various business organizations.
Different authors have different approaches towards defining job satisfaction. Some of the
most commonly cited definitions on job satisfaction are analyzed in the text that follows:
According to this approach although job satisfaction is under the influence of many
external factors, it remains something internal that has to do with the way how the
employee feel That is job satisfaction presents a set of factors that cause a feeling of
satisfaction Vroom in is definition on job satisfaction focuses on the role of the employee in
the workplace. Thus he defines job satisfaction as affective orientations on the part of
individuals toward work roles which they are presently occupying (vroom, 1964 one of the
most often cited definitions on job satisfaction is the one given by Spector according to
whom job satisfaction has to do with the way how people feel about their job and its
various aspects.

The extent to which people like or dislike their job. That's dissatisfaction can appear in any
why job satisfaction and job combination of given work situation. Job satisfaction
represents positive or negative feelings that workers have meanwhile, when a worker
employed in towards their work. Desires and experiences which a business organization,
brings with one satisfaction represents the extent determinates expectations that he has
dismissed. Job satisfaction is closely linked to which expectations are and match the real
awards. Job that individual's behavior in 1985), Job satisfaction is a worker's sense of e
work place (Davis generally achievement and success on the job. this is perceived to be
directly linked to productivity well as to personal well-being. job satisfaction implies as
efforts. Job doing a job one enjoys, doing it well and being rewarded for one's satisfaction
further implies enthusiasm and happiness with one's work. Job satisfaction is the key
ingredient that leads to recognition, income, promotion, and the achievement of other goals
that lead to a feeling of fulfillment.
Job satisfaction can be defined also as the extent to which a worker is content with the
rewards he or she gets out of his or her job. Particularly in terms of intrinsic motivation.
The term job satisfactions refer to the attitude and feelings people have about their work.
Positive and Favorable attitudes towards the job indicate job satisfaction. Negative and
unfavorable attitudes towards the job indicate job dissatisfaction. Job satisfaction is the
collection of feeling and beliefs that people have about their current job. People's levels of
degrees of job satisfaction can range from extreme satisfaction to extreme dissatisfaction.
In addition to having attitudes about their jobs as a whole. People also can have attitudes
about various aspects of their jobs such as the kind of work they do. their co workers,
supervisors or subordinates and their pay (George et al., 2008) Job satisfaction is a complex
and multifaceted concept which can mean different things to different people Job
satisfaction i usually linked with motivation, but the nature of this relationship is not clear.
Satisfaction is not the same as motivation. Job satisfaction is more of an attitude, an internal
state We consider that job satisfaction represents a feeling that appears as a result of the
perception that the job enables the material and psychological needs (Aziri, 2008). Job
satisfaction can be considered as one of the main factors when it comes to efficiency and
effectiveness of business organizational. In fact the new managerial paradigm which insists
that employees business organizations. Should be treated and considered primarily as
human beings that have their own wound, needs personal desires is a very good.

guided by human values such organizations will be oriented towards treating workers
fierily and with respect. In such cases the assessment of job satisfaction may serve as a
good indicator of employee state of High levels of job satisfaction may be sign of a good
emotional and mental employee second, use behavior of workers depending on their
satisfaction will affect the functioning and activities of the organization's business. From
this it can be concluded that job satisfaction will result in positive behavior vice versa and
dissatisfaction from the work will result in negative behavior of employees. Third, lob
satisfaction may serve as indicators of organizational activities Through job s evaluation
different levels of satisfaction in different organizational units can be define but in turn can
serve as a good indication regarding in which organizational unit changes that would boost
performance should be made. Christen, Ayer and Sober man (2006) provide a model of job
satisfaction presented in Figure 1 in which the following elements are included:
Job related factors, Role perceptions, Job performance and Firm performance.
Therefore all factors that have derived from a large empirical research and divided in
factor that cause job satisfaction of {motivator} and factor that causes job dissatisfaction.
Their research proved that the higher the degree of job satisfaction the higher is the level
employee loyalty. Employee absenteeism causes serious additional costs for companies.
Therefore managers are in permanent pursue of ways how to decrease and reduce it to its
Page 30
SCHOOL OF MANAGEMENT SCIENCE, SRTMUN, SUB-CENTRE Department of MBA
minimum. Probably, the best way of reduce employee absenteeism would be through a
increase in the level of employee satisfaction. The main idea behind this approach is that
the higher the degree of job satisfaction is the lower employee absenteeism should be. Even
though the effects are modest the fact that job satisfaction contributes to decreasing the
level of employee absenteeism remains. Satisfaction is worth paying attention to, especially
since it is potentially under your control unlike some of the other causes of absenteeism
(e.g. illness, accidents). But as we said circumstances can alter this equation. As a manager
you could be implicitly encouraging absenteeism by enforcing company policies. If people
are paid for sick days. And if they must be "used or lost" this is pretty strong
encouragement for employees to be absent. In other words, you've helped create a culture
of absenteeism that can overcome the "satisfaction" effect. (Sweeny and Marlin, 2005)
When satisfaction is high, absenteeism tends to be low; when satisfaction is low.
Absenteeism tends to be high. However as with the other relationships with satisfaction,
there are moderating variables such as the degree to which people feel their jobs are
important. Additionally, it is important to remember that while high job satisfaction will
not necessarily result in low absenteeism.
Job satisfaction is likely to bring about high absenteeism. but satisfaction represents one of
the most complex areas facing today's managers when it comes to managing their
employees, although thousands of papers and research have been conducted on job
satisfaction all over the world. The job satisfaction on the motivation of workers, while the
level of motivation has an impact on productivity and hence also on performance of
business organizations. There is a considerable impact of the employee's is work and the
level of overall job satisfaction financial perceptions for the nature of compensation has a
great impact on the overall job satisfaction of employees.

7.4 SAMPLING:
Simple random sampling method is used in this research. The collection of data was by
distribution of questionnaires and asking questions to the employees. Simple Random
sampling is unrestricted .Random selection principle, where each population element has a
known non-zero chance of selection, is used in Simple random sampling. The term
sampling means a part of population or subset from a set of unit which is provided by some
process or other usually by deliberate selection with the object of provided by some
process or other usually by deliberate selection whit the object of investigating the
properties of the parent population is impossible task hence sampling. The survey that is
carried on using the given sample is called as survey there are methods of sampling used
for different methods of sampling used researcher.
The concept of sampling can be explained with an examination of the tea testing when a
person takes a sip of tea .He is actually testing the whole tea by testing of a part of a. In
sampling i of examining all the time only a few are examined as representation and the

7.4 HYPOTHESIS:
It is known fact to all that keeping a employee happy is management's responsibility as to
get the work done perfectly. But, to feel happy is employee's perception. So a satisfied
employee is essential element for improving efficiency and effectiveness.

which somebody works, taking into account aspects such as temperature, air quality
Lighting. Safety, cleanliness, and noise, working conditions are at the core of paid work and
employment relationships. Generally speaking, working conditions cover a broad range of
topics and issues, from working time (hours of work, rest periods, and work schedules to
remuneration, as well as the physical conditions and mental demands that exist in the

The work environment can involve the social interactions at the workplace, including
interactions with peers, subordinates, and managers. Generally, and within limits,
employees are entitled to a work environment that is free from harassment. A hostile work
environment exists when unwelcome sexual conduct interferes with an employee's job
performance, or creates a hostile, intimidating, or offensive work environment. The term
work environment can also be associated with the physical condition of the building.
Healthy work environments will be free from problems associated with sick building
syndrome, which is often due to poor ventilation or off-gassing of chemicals used during
construction. The accumulation of molds and mildew may also lead to sick building
syndrome, the autonomy and participative working environment is good for the employees

compensation strategy does not provoke employees to search the web lob boards during
the working hours, it makes them to focus on delivering the results as they can be
highlighted and they feel the highlight in their salaries. The successful compensation
strategy gains the competitive advantage and can speed up the innovation processes and
improve the management practices in the organization.

working hours and output produced by the workmen. So the most of the respondents
(employee) are satisfied and agree with working hours on workplace. The adequate and
accurate working hours results in minimize the backtracking of the material and wastageof

INTERPRETATION: In above graph shows that 95% of respondents are satisfied and
5% ate dissatisfied about the welfare facilities provided to employees by the organization.
The employees Sunrich Aqua Limited indicates that we are satisfied about the welfare
facilities provided by the organization, yes it is good. The welfare facilities as, they provide
better physical and mental health to workers and thus promote a healthy work
environment. Facilities like housing schemes, medical benefits, and education and
recreation facilities for worker's families help in raising their standards of living. This
makes workers to pay more attention towards work and thus increases their productivity.
Employers gel stable labour force by providing welfare facilities. Workers take active
interest in their jobs and work with a feeling of involvement and participation. Employee
welfare measures increase the productivity of organization and promote healthy industrial
relations thereby maintaining industrial peace. The social evils prevalent among the labour
such as substance abuse, erc are reduced to a greater extent by the welfare policies.

INTERPRETATION: In above graph shows that 30% of employees feel that salary
increment is the motivator, 35% feel that work recognition is good motivator, 20% feels
that motivational talk is good motivator, 10% feels that leave is the good motivator and
remaining 5% respondents feels that promotion is the good motivation factor for
employee. Motivators for employees today need to reflect the changing nature of work and
the relationship between manager employees. This isn't to say that shaping behaviors by
use of money, for example, doesn't have its place in today's workplace. We know, however,
that money is a short-term motivator. It's not a reliable long-term solution given today's
dynamically changing, complex work environment plus the number of disengaged,
unhappy employees points the way to finding more long-term motivators to inspire
employees to do great works. So the most of the employees feels that the work recognition
is the best motivator for them but the 30% of the employees are feels that salary increment
is the good motivator for them. Taking a deeper look at motivating employees, we know
now that employees' overall wellbeing is vital to performance. So it stands to reason that
improving employee wellbeing is a useful motivator. While money is important to our
wellbeing, most employees adjust their lifestyles over time to the increase in pay or bonus.
Reducing the benefit to financial well-being.

"promotion provides incentive to initiative, enterprise and ambition; minimizes discontent
and unrest; attracts capable individuals; necessitates logical training for advancement and
forms an effective reward for loyalty and cooperation, long service etc." The purposes and
advantages of promotions are to: recognize employee's performance and commitment and
motivate him towards better performance.
