The study examines the level of job satisfaction and its determinants amongst working adults in India. The findings indicate that more than 50% of the population surveyed were satisfied with their current working conditions. Nature of job and salary were identified as the most important factors determining a person's job satisfaction, while flexibility of working hours was found to be the least important. Also, amongst different types of satisfaction measured through Opatha's analysis, social satisfaction was given the highest and psychological satisfaction the least priority by the sample surveyed. Interestingly, the findings also showed that earnings fell if employees switched more than four jobs and were highest for those who retained their first jobs.
India is one of the fastest growing economies in the world. According to the World Bank, nearly 5 million people are added to the Indian workforce each year (derived using data from International Labor Organization, ILOSTAT database, June 15, 2021). It is important that their needs and wants are given full regard in the workplace, which could increase their efficiency severalfold.
