| Abstract: | The purpose of this study is to investigate the determinants of employee’s job satisfaction in
BEAEKA General Business PLC. Simple random sampling was used for the sampling
technique and 170 employees were selected from employees of BEAEKA General Business
PLC. Data were collected through structured close ended questionnaires. Descriptive and
explanatory research designs with quantitative research approaches were used to determine
level of employees’ job satisfaction. Data were analysed using descriptive and inferential
statistics with the aid of Statistical Packages for Social Scientists (SPSS) version 23.0. Multiple
regression analysis technique was used to explain the effect of employees’ job satisfaction
determinants (working environment, salary & benefit, promotion opportunity, relation between
staffs & managers, trust in leaders). The result indicates that there is a significant effect with
working environment, salary, promotion opportunities, and trust in leaders with employees’
job satisfaction and regression analysis result indicated that 77.8% of the variation on the
employees’ job satisfaction can be explained by the composite measure of working
environment, salary, promotion opportunities, and trust in leaders. However, the current study
showed that relation between staff and managers had not a significant effect on the job
satisfaction. This is inconsistent with the existing theories; therefore, it should be clarified
through further research. To increase the level of employee’s job satisfaction, possible
recommendation of the research, are providing competitive benefits, giving rewards and
recognitions, providing promotion opportunity, creating positive work environment, engaging
employees and tracing job satisfaction. |
