A study on job satisfaction in ITI Limited, Bangalore

The primary objective of this study is to ascertain the levels of job satisfaction experienced amongst employees in ITI limited, Bangalore. For the purpose of this study convenience sampling design was used to assess job satisfaction. The sample group (N = 100) consisted of permanent workers extending across the various occupational classes. A questionnaire was administered to gather the data. It measures job satisfaction on five job facets, namely, pay, promotions, supervision, co-workers and the work itself. Results indicate that employees in the ITI Limited expressed satisfaction with their co-workers, followed by the nature of the work and the supervision they receive. Opportunities for promotion and pay emerged as major sources of dissatisfaction. With the exception of marital status, the relationship between occupational class, race, gender, educational level, tenure, age, income and job status with job satisfaction was found to be significant. Although the research indicates that job satisfaction is significantly related to variables such as work, remuneration, supervision, promotion, and co-workers, ongoing research is required in this domain.
