CHAPTER-4
EMPLOYEE
MORALE

EMPLOYEE MORALE

INTRODUCTION

Employee Morale refers to an attitude of satisfaction with a desire

to continue and strive for attaining the objectives of a factory.
Morale is purely emotional. It is an attitude of an employee
towards his job, his superior and his organization. It is not static
thing, but it changes depending on working conditions, superiors,
fellow workers pay and so on.

Morale may range from very high to very low. High Morale is
evident from the positive feelings of employees such as
enthusiasm, desire to obey orders, willingness to co-operate with
coworkers. Poor or low Morale becomes obvious from the negative
feelings of employees such as dissatisfaction, discouragement or
dislike of the job.

Definitions:
Morale is a fundamental psychological concept. It is not
easy to define. Morale is the degree of enthusiasm and
willingness with which the members of a group pull
together to achieve group goal. It has been defined
differently by different authors. Different definition of
Morale can be classified into three major approaches.
1) Classical approach
2) Psychological approach
3) Social approach

1. Classical approach:

According to this approach the satisfaction of basic needs is the

symbol of Morale.
According to Robert M. Guion "Morale is defined as the extent to
which the individual perceives that satisfaction stemming from
total job satisfaction".

2. Psychological Approach:
According to this approach Morale is psychological concept i.e.,
state of mind.

According to Jurious Fillipo “Morale is a mental condition or

attitude of individual and groups which determines their
willingness to cooperate".

3. Social Approach:

According to some experts Morale is a social phenomenon.

According to Davis "Morale can be defined as the attitudes of
individual and groups towards their work environment and towards
voluntary cooperation to the full extent of their ability in the best
interest at the organization".

Importance of Employee Morale:

Employee Morale plays vital role in the origination success. High

Morale leads to success and low Morale brings to defeat in its
wake. The plays of Morale is no less important for an industrial
undertaking. The success of failure of the industry much depends
up on the Morale of its employees.

Types of Morale:
I. High Morale:

It will lead to enthusiasm among the workers for better

performance. High Morale is needed a manifestation of the
employees strength, dependability pride, confidence and
devotion. Some of the advantages of high Morale such as:

1. Willing cooperation towards objectives of the organization.

2. Loyalty to the organization and its leadership.
3. Good Leadership.
4. Sound superior subordinate relations.
5. High degree of employee’s interest in their job and organization.

6. Bribe in the organization

7. Reduction in absenteeism and labour turnover.
8. Reduction in grievance.
9. Reduction in industrial conflict.
10. Team building & Employee empowerment.

II. Low Morale:

Low Morale indicates the presence of mental unrest. The mental

unrest not only hampers production but also leads to ill health of
the employees. Low Morale exists when doubt in suspicion are
common and when individuals are depressed and discouraged
i.e., there is a lot of mental tension. Such situation will have the
following adverse consequences.
 1. High rates of absenteeism and labour turnover.

2. Decreased quality.
3. Decreased Productivity.

4. Excessive Complaints and Grievances.

5. Frustration among the workers.

6. Lack of discipline.

7. Increase errors, accidents or injuries.

FACTORS AFFECTING MORALE:

Employee Morale is a very complex phenomenon and is

influenced by many factors on the shop floor. Several criteria seem
important in the determinants of levels of workers Morale such as:

1. Objectives of the organization:

Employees are highly motivated and their Morale is highly if their

individual goal and objectives are in tune with organizational goal
and objectives.

2. Organizational design:

Organization structure has an impact on the quality of labour

relation, particularly on the level of Morale. Large organization
tend to lengthen their channels of vertical communication and to
increase the difficulty of upward communication. Therefore the
Morale tends to be lower. Against this flat structure increases
levels of Morale.

3. Personal Factors:

It is relating to age, training, education and intelligence of the

employees, time spent by them on the job and interest in worth
taken by them, affect the Morale of the employees. For examples if
an employees is not imparted proper training he will have low
Morale.

4. Rewards:
Employees expect adequate compensation for their services
rendered to the organization. Good system of wages, salaries,
promotions and other incentives keep the Morale of the employees
high.

5. Good Leadership and Supervision:

The nature of supervision can tell the attitudes of employees

because a supervisor is in direct contact with the employers and
can have better influences on the activities of the employees.

6. Work Environment:

The building and it appearance the condition of machines, tools,

available at work place provision for safety, medical aid and
repairs to machinery etc. all have an impact on their Morale.

7. Compatibility with fellow employees:

Man being a social animal finds his words more satisfying if he

feels that he has the acceptance and companionship of his fellow
workers. If he has confidence in his fellow worker and faith in
their loyalty his Morale will be high.
8. Job Satisfaction:

If the job gives an employee an opportunity to prove his talents

and grow personality, he will certify like it and he will have high
morale.

9. Opportunity to share profit:

one of the requirements of high morale is possibility and

opportunity of progress in any concern. All worker should be given
an opportunity of the progress and earn high wages without any
discrimination.

MEASUREMENT OF MORALE
Morale is basically a psychological concept. As such the
measurement of morale is a very difficult task to measure it
directly. However the following methods are more commonly used
to study employee morale.

1.Observation Method:

Under this method evaluator observes the employees on work and

records their behaviour, altitude, sentiments and feelings, which
have developed in them. The changes in the attitude and behaviour
of the employee are the indicators of high and low morale.

2.Attitude Surveys:

In order to overcome the limitation of the above method attitude

survey method is being largely employed in modern days. This
method includes conducting surveys through questionnaires and
interviews. This relates what the workers are looking in and what
step should be taken to improve their approach towards work.

3.Company Records and Reports:

The records and reports relating to Labour turnover, rate of

absenteeism, the number of goods rejected, strikes and such other
things, which are indicators of the level of morale.

4.Counseling:

Under this method employees are advised to develop better mental

health. So that they can imbideself confidence, understanding and
self control. This method is used to find out the causes of
dissatisfaction and then to advice the employees by way of
remedial measures.
The above methods of the measurement of the employees present
only the tendencies or the attitude of the employee morale. The
statistical measurement of morale is not possible because it relates
to the inner feelings human beings. We can say that morale is
increasing or decreasing, but can not measured how much it
increased or increased.

BUILDING OF HIGH MORALE

In order to achieve high morale among the employees the
following suggestion may be followed.

1. Two-Way Communication:-

There should be a two-way communication between the

management and the workers as if exercises a profound influences
on morale. The workers should be kept informed about the
organization policies and programmes through conferences,
bulletins and informal discussions with the workers.

2. Show Concern.

Large or small every business should have names on desks work

stations or cubicles to show that a real person with worth works
there not just a machine. Next ask their opinion whenever an
opportunity arises rather than always telling them what to do or the
way to do it. This allows employees to add their own creative
thoughts to the work process, which then can lead to more of a
feeling of ownership. Finally ask how they are without wanting to
know deeply personal data the boss can easily show on interest in
the individual walkers.

3. Job Enrichment:-
This involves a greater use of the factors which are intended to
motive the worker rather than to ensure his continuing satisfaction
with the job he performs the idea is to reduce employee discontent
by changing or improving a job to ensure that he is better
motivated.

4. Modifying the work environment:-

This involves the use of teams of work groups developing social

contacts of the employees the use of music regular rest breaks.

IMPACT OF ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE

ON EMPLOYEE MORALE
Two studies have been found in this regard. First
relationship between organizational culture and employee’s
morale. The organizational culture was measured using the
11 dimensions - interpersonal trust, degree of autonomy,
freedom of decision–making, communication patterns,
importance given to merit, receptiveness to new ideas,
importance to excellence, inter-departmental relations,
concern for people, use of status symbol and leadership
style and employee morale using the following five
dimensions - index of organizational image, index of career
growth, satisfaction, index of satisfaction with physical and
emotional needs.. The technology factor was also included.
The finding was that organizational culture had a
significant impact on employee morale.

The banks were compared on the same above 11

dimensions of organizational culture and five dimensions
of employee’s morale and also on some demographic
variables - age, education, experience and level (manager,
officer, supervisor).

In the analysis of the 11 dimensions of organizational

culture the 7 dimensions show significant differences in the
two types of banks. These are interpersonal trust,
communication patterns, importance given to merit,
receptiveness to new ideas, importance to excellence, use
of status symbol and leadership style. Dimension-wise,
commercial bank employees have a higher level of
interpersonal trust, as compared to their counter-parts in
cooperative banks.

Good autonomy has been given to the employees, yet

decision-making power is limited in both types of banks.
Most of the decision-making power is vested in few hands
at the top level. Excellence is overlooked. Greater
importance is given to individuals in commercial banks.
They are encouraged to give new ideas and their input in
this respect is welcomed. Emphasis is given to the
individual’s training and development. Communication
patterns are well developed. Use of status symbol is quite
less. All these factors taken together give rise to an open
organizational culture which is more prevalent in
commercial banks as compared to cooperative banks.

The analysis of employee morale indicates that there is

significant difference in all the five indices of morale in
both categories of banks. Commercial banks scored
significantly higher than co-operative banks.

The emphasis that though the organizational image is high,

job satisfaction and satisfaction with supervisors is average.
Thus their morale tends to be low which can be attributed
to fewer career prospects and chances of advancement.
This is evident in cooperative banks where there is
widespread frustration due to fewer opportunities for
advancement.

A positive and high degree of correlation exists between

organizational culture and employee morale. Nine
dimensions of organizational culture except the freedom in
decision making and use of status symbol show significant
relationships with morale.
