A Study on Job Satisfaction among the Employees in Sri Matha


Spinning Mills Private Limited, Dindigul.

Dr.Deepak Sankaran

Abstract
Job satisfaction is a general attitude towards one’s job, the difference between
the amount of reward workers receive and the amount they believe they should
receive. Employee is a back bone of 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. As Dindigul district is famous for Spinning Mill industries, the main aim of
this study is to analyze the satisfaction level of spinning mill employees. Chi-Square
test, ANOVA, Correlation Analysis and percentage analysis have been used in this
study to analyze the research variables and hypothesis. The study shows that only 49
per cent were being satisfied for getting equal payment for their equal work, 64 per
cent of the respondents were being satisfied about the relationship with their
superiors in the present working industrial concerns, 15 per cent of the respondents
were neutral as well as strongly dis-agree about the professionalism among their co-
workers, and 11 per cent of the respondents were strongly agreed about the
satisfaction level towards appropriate recognitions. The organization may give
importance to certain factors such as canteen, rest room facilities, rewards, and
recognition and promotion policy so that satisfaction of the employees may be
improved further.

Key words: Job satisfaction, Job security, Rewards, Working Conditions.

I Introduction
Satisfaction is fulfillment of a need or desire and the pleasure obtained by such
a fulfillment. Satisfaction is a good measure to evaluate personal attitude to the
professional activity of enterprises. It also expresses a level of happiness of a person
in his professional environment connected with interpersonal relations with
colleagues and superiors. Employee satisfaction is a key part of successful business.
Knowing the employee needs and achieving satisfaction are the basis for successful
business activities the employee feedback is most important source of information for
improving product and services. Satisfied and convinced employees ensure the
company’s success in the long term. Research has shown that companies that
encourage or engage their employees to provide ideas or suggestions have a
consistently higher employee retention rates, productivity and job – satisfaction.
Job satisfaction is the collection of tasks and responsibilities regularly
assigned to one person, while a job is a group of positions, which involves essentially
the same duties, responsibility, skill and knowledge”. Job satisfaction has some
relation with the mental health of the people. It spreads the goodwill of the
organization. Job satisfaction reduces absenteeism, labour turnover and accidents. Job
satisfaction increases employee’s morale, productivity, etc. Job satisfaction creates
innovative ideas among the employees. Individuals may become more loyal towards
the organization Employees will be more satisfied if they get what they expected, job
satisfaction relates to inner feelings of workers.
Naturally it is the satisfied worker who shows the maximum effectiveness and
efficiency in his work. Most people generalize that workers are concerned more about
pay rather than other factors which also affects their level of satisfaction, such as
canteen facilities, bonus, working conditions, etc. these conditions are less significant
when compared to payment.

Definitions of Job Satisfaction:


Bullock (1952) define job satisfaction “as an attitude which results from a
balancing summation between specific liking and disliking as a factor of expressing
and connections associated with one job”.
Loche (1969) defines job satisfaction “as a combination of satisfaction and job
dissatisfaction in emotional relations and values, perception of the job”.
McCormick and Tiffin (1971) defines job satisfaction from the various
aspect (involved in the job). According to them – “job satisfaction is an individual‟s
matter related to his own value system like work, income, promotional avenues and
morale”.
Keith Davis (1979) defines job satisfaction “as a factor responsible for
deteriorating condition in the organisation. In its sinister form it manifests wild cat
strike, slow down, absenteeism, labour turnover, grievances, disciplinary problems,
low productivity and organisational difficulties.
II Review of Literature
Gill (et.al) (2012) the objective of this paper was to analyze the effects of job
satisfaction and work experience on employee desire for empowerment. In both the
countries India and Canada job satisfaction and work experience enhance the
employee’s desire for empowerment. The paper showed that all the employees who
have high job satisfaction and work experience show a higher desire for getting their
needs and demands met regardless of cultural diversity.
Pidikoti (et.al) (2014) analysed and pointed, Maslow‟s Need Hierarchy
theory, a motivation theory, laid the foundation for job satisfaction theory which
explains that people seek to satisfy five specific needs in life – physiological needs,
safety needs, social needs, self-esteem needs, and self-actualization need. This model
served as a good basis from which early researchers could develop job satisfaction
theories. Job satisfaction can also be seen within the broader context of the range of
issues which 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, stress at work, control at work, home-work interface, and
working conditions
Tahere (2012) this paper was related to the job satisfaction, motivation and
organizational commitment of the employees in the hospital industry. The results
showed a significant correlation between job experience and satisfaction and
organizational commitment; but, no correlation was could be seen between job
motivation and organizational commitment. This study has helped to create better job
roles and designs in the hospital industry.
Kanika (et.al) (2017) tried to find out the relation of job satisfaction with
employee experience and the impact of employee experience on job satisfaction. Data
has been collected by questionnaire method with a sample size of 40. The respondents
were employees of various companies aging between 25-40 years. A correlation and
regression test was done. The hypothesis was true that there is a relation between job
satisfaction and employee experience.
Agrawal (et.al) (2015) in a research work with many potential causal models,
explain this correlation, one possibility is that the satisfaction-performance
relationship is actually spurious, advocating the correlation is due to common causes
of both constructs. Common causes in this study include the job complexity and
cognitive ability, in association with the personality traits, like Conscientiousness,
Extraversion, Agreeableness, and core self-evaluations. The meta-analytic correlation
matrix, through its structural equation modeling, suggests a residual correlation of .16
between job satisfaction and performance.
III Research Methodology
Job satisfaction is a very important attribute which is frequently measured by
organizations. The most common way of measurement is the use of rating scales
where employees report their reactions to their jobs.
Title of the Study
The title of the study is “A Study on Job Satisfaction among the Employees in
Sri Matha Spinning Mills Private Limited, Dindigul”.

The table no -7 indicates the statistical analysis were used to test the first three
hypothesis, indicates about the significance difference between gender of the
respondents and their satisfied with the regular assigned activities, but the statistical
analysis reveals the negative impact on the variables between gender & regular
assigned activities. The results indicates (r = -.118, n = 75, p = .315>.005). From the
above results, the null hypothesis is rejected and the alternative hypothesis framed as
there is no significant difference between gender of the respondents and their satisfied
with the regular assigned activities.
The second hypothesis highlights, there is a significance difference between
genders of the respondents and their satisfied gives me overall job security. The
results indicates (r = -.132, n = 75, p = .259>.005). From the discussion, the null
hypothesis is rejected, the alternative hypothesis framed as there is no significant
difference between gender of the respondents and satisfied gives me overall job
security. The third hypothesis enumerates there is a significant difference between
gender of the respondents and their work accomplishment. The results shows (r = -
.061, n = 75, p = .606>.005). From the discussion, the null hypothesis is rejected, the
alternative hypothesis framed as there is no significant difference between gender of
the respondents and their work accomplishment.

The chi square statistic appears in the Value column of the Chi-Square Tests
table immediately to the right of “Pearson Chi-Square”. In this Table no.8.a, the
results were as follows. The value of the chi square statistic is 13.175. The p-value
appears in the same row in the “Asymptotic Significance (2-sided)” column (.106).
The result is significant if this value is equal to or less than the designated alpha level
(normally .05). In this case, the p-value is smaller than the standard alpha value, so
the null hypothesis is accepted. To put it simply, the result is significant – the data
suggests that there is significant association between age of the respondents and
appropriate recognition.
Additionally, in this Table no. 8.b, the value of the chi square statistic is 18.32.
The p-value appears in the same row in the “Asymptotic Significance (2-sided)”
column (.019). The result is significant if this value is equal to or less than the
designated alpha level (normally .05). In this case, the p-value is smaller than the
standard alpha value, so the null hypothesis is accepted. To put it simply, the result
is significant – the data suggests that there is significant association between age of
the respondents and the empowerment of quality work.

Suggestions
i. The management has to find out some extra methods to know the problems of
the every individual. For that the management can place suggestion box in
every department.
ii. The management supposes to give opportunities to the inefficient employees
to come up in their performance by the way of providing effective training to
those particular persons. Through that they also should attain the high level of
job satisfaction.
iii. Working atmosphere may be improved to maximum level.
iv. The management may enquire the employees about their level of satisfaction
now and then.
v. Team work and employee motivation may be improved to the further.
vi. Qualitative and enough safety measures may be provided to the employees.
vii. They should have enough techniques and knowledge to protect themselves
from dangers.
viii. Company should provide all the necessary resources (information, tools,
equipments etc.) to the employees to perform their duties efficiently and
effectively.
ix. Promotion structure should be rearranged. Manager should give more
priorities on performance and efforts rather than on their personal
characteristics.

x. Manger should recognize the efforts of employees and appreciate their


valuable performance towards organization.
Conclusion
The organizations lack the relationship between workers and supervisors, it
should be given due consideration. The organizations also lack on certain factors such
as working conditions, Canteen, rest room facilities, rewards, recognition and
promotion policy. Employee’s welfare measures and Job security should be given
utmost importance, so that the employee’s turnover may be restricted. The
organizations need to modify the reward system of the employees and promotions
must be given based on merit, educational qualification and experience, and if these
factors are given little more care, the company can maintain good workers with high
level of satisfaction, organizational commitment and involvement. This will in turn
lead to effectiveness and efficiency in their work which leads to increased
productivity.
