A comparison of the Level of Intrinsic & Extrinsic Motivation of Employees Working in Public and Private Sector Banks of Surendranagar & Gandhidham City

Human being work to earn their living, this is the general thought. But none can actually live without work. Everybody works, some for satisfying their basic needs and some for satisfying their inner needs of accomplishment and self-actualisation. Some theorist say that man gets motivated if something is given in return of their work and some theorists are of the thought that a human being is more motivated if the work which is given to him is of interest to her. Here in this research paper the researcher has tried to show if the importance of intrinsic and extrinsic motivational factors are same for employees working in public sector banks and private sector banks. An attempt has also been made to identify if the two types of motivational factors vary for employees belonging to different genders and different age groups. The results revealed that for employees belonging to private sector banks intrinsic motivational factors are more important. Results also show that with age the importance of intrinsic and extrinsic motivational factors vary.
