Abstract

Job satisfaction is one of the vital needs of almost every employee in any well-structured organization. Any shortfall in the anticipated level of employee job satisfaction would affect the employees' contribution to organizational effectiveness. The purpose of the research is twofold. It aims to study the relationship between different levels of employees' job satisfaction in organizations and the impact of employee job satisfaction on the nature of roles performed by employees. The study found that employees' job satisfaction significantly impacted their performance and productivity in the organization. Also, the significant impact of employee satisfaction has been found on the employee commitment to work. Furthermore, the significant outcome on organizational performance can be seen as the result of job satisfaction. The study results would help an organization understand the value of job satisfaction for an employee, which could help increase organizational commitment.
