INTRODUCTION
Management has been defined by MARY PARKER FOLLET as the art of
getting things done through people but it is felt that management is much more than
what is said in the definition. Human resource management is a crucial sub system in
the process of management.
The objective of human resource management is to achieve healthy human relations
and direct their efforts towards the goals of the organization. Healthy human resources
contribute to the employee with the sense of ownership, good business results and joy
in the place.
Human resources play a crucial role in the development process of modern
economics. ARTHUR LEWIS observed there are greater differences in the
development between countries which seem to have roughly equal resources. So it is
necessary to enquire into the difference in human behavior, , it is often felt that,
though the exploitation of natural resources, availability of physical and financial
resources and international aid play prominent role in growth of modern economics,
none of these factors is more significant then efficient and committed man power. It is
fact, said that all development comes from the human mind.
According to David A. Decenzo & Stephen p. Robbins HR is defined as process
consisting of four functions acquisition, development, motivation and maintenance of
human resources.
In order to achieve better productivity level in the organization, human resources
should be satisfied with their job.

Meaning of Job- Satisfaction
Job satisfaction refers to a persons feeling of satisfaction on the job, which
as a motivation to work. It is not the self satisfaction, happiness or self contentment
but the satisfaction on the job.
The term relates to the total relationship between an individual and the employer for
which he is paid. Satisfaction does mean the simple feeling-state accompanying the
attainment of any goal; the end-state is feeling accompanying the attainment by an
impulse of its objective job dissatisfaction does mean absence of motivation at work.
Research workers differently described the factors contributing to job satisfaction and
job dissatisfaction. HOPPOCK describes job satisfaction as, any combination of
psychological, physiological and environmental circumstances that cause and person
truthfully to say I am satisfied with my job.
Job satisfaction is defined as the, pleasurable emotional state resulting from the
appraisal of ones job as achieving or facilitating the achievement of ones job
values. In contrast job dissatisfaction is defined as the unpleasurable emotional state
resulting from the appraisal of ones job as frustrating or blocking the attainment ones
job values or as entailing disvalues. However, both satisfaction and dissatisfaction
were seen as, a function of the perceived relationship between what on perceives it as
offering or entailing.

Factors of job satisfaction
Job satisfaction refers to a general attribute which an employee retains on account of
many specific attributes in the following areas: (1) Personal factor, (2) Factors
inherent in the job and (3) Factors controlled by the management. They are discussed
hereunder.
Personal factors:
They include workers sex, education, age, marital status and their personal
characteristics, family background, socio-economic background and the like.
Factors inherent in the job:
These factors have recently been studied and found to be important in the selection of
employees. Instead of being guided by their co-workers and supervisors, the skilled
workers would rather like to be guided by their own inclination to choose jobs in
consideration of what they have to do. These factors include the work itself,
conditions, influence of internal and external environment on the job which are
uncontrolled by the management etc.

Factors controlled by the management:
They include the nature of supervision, job security, kind of work group, wage rate
promotional opportunities, transfer policy, duration of work and sense of
responsibilities. All these factors greatly influence the workers. Their presence in the
organization motivates the workers and providers & sense of job satisfaction.
Though performance and job satisfaction are influenced by different set of factors,
these two can be related if management links rewards to performance. It is viewed that
job satisfaction is a consequence of performance rather than a cause of it. Satisfaction
strongly influences the productive efficiency of an organization where as absenteeism,
employee turnover, alcoholism, irresponsibility, un-commitment is the result of job
dissatisfaction. However, job satisfaction or dissatisfaction forms opinions about the
job and the organization which result in employee morale.

Need of Study
Human resources are considered to be the most valuable assets for any organization.
The management of human resources is very important and crucial in any
organization. These human resources should be utilized in a proper manner for the
achievement of organizational goals. One of the important aspects of this human
resources management is their satisfaction on the job. Once they are satisfied with
their job, they will be putting in their best efforts in the work place and will be
achieving the organizational goals and objectives.
Dairy development in India has been most spectacular in recent years.Sri Vijaya
Visakha District co-operative milk producers union Ltd is one of the leading Dairies in
East costal Andhra Pradesh. They were able to run the Dairy successfully with
dedicated employees.
Most of the studies in HRM have been carried out with a focus on human resource
policies and practices such as selection and recruitment, compensation package,
welfare measures etc. There are very few studies with regard to job satisfaction,
even though it is an important concept of Human resource management. Hence there
is a felt need to analyze the level of job satisfaction among the Visakha Dairy
employees which contributed to the development of the organization.

Methodology
The present study is an attempt to analyze the job satisfaction of employees of
Sri Vijaya Visakha District Milk Producers Mutually Aided Co-op Union Ltd.
Towards the accomplishment of said objectives, information would be obtained from
primary and secondary data sources.
Primary data is gathered through a series of detailed discussion with the employees. A
questionnaire has been surveyed to a sample of 60 respondents from various
departments.
The respondents were selected on the basis of simple random sampling. At least 4
years of experience employees were selected and given questionnaires. The idea
beyond that is if they had 4 years of experience they will be having fair knowledge
about their job.
The secondary data was collected from company books, websites, various books &
records from the human resource management department of the unit.

INTRODUCTION TO DAIRY INDUSTRY
Milk is the food, which contains Vitamins, proteins, fats & carbohydrates. Every
human being consumes milk at one time or the other. World health organization
suggests that the infants should be fed compulsorily with mother milk, because it
provides all the necessary fats proteins, etc which is essential for the growth of the
baby. If mother milk is not available they suggest animal milk. This shows what major
role milk is playing in our daily life.
India is the second highly populated country and is about to occupy the first position.
In India the major source of income is Agriculture. Dairying is a part of Agriculture.
Dairying is one of the best instruments for bringing up the socio economic
development of the country. Developing countries like India rural people depend on
agricultural income like farming, Dairying etc. the India dairy is expected to retain its
indigenous character for a long time because of consumer tastes for articles of food so
far delicacies are concerned.
Dairy development in India has been most spectacular in recent years, while chef
contributing factor to this achievement is the pattern of dairy cooperatives. No less
creditable has been a concerned effort of the national dairy development and the
Indian dairy development. These two institutional have been responsible for dairy
development in India since 1970. Dairying is considered as a whole when it contains
elements like production and procurement. Kaira district Co-operative Milk
Producers Union Ltd" adopted this integrated approach. This integrated approach in
17

dairying is proved to be successful with "AMUL" and later this integrated approach is
come to be known as "ANAND PATTERN OF DAIRY CO-OPERATIVES".
IMPORTANCE OF MILK:
Milk as we all know is a mixture of a variety of nutrients. Milk is a polysaccharide
constitute of our food. Milk on digestion gives glucose and lactose.
As we grow into adulthood, we tend to consume less and less of milk. In todays
market place, where there is a bewildering array of milk products. There is a milk
product for almost every one. Once consuming cow's milk, infants under 1 year
should stock to whole milk for growth and energy needs.

MILK IN VARIOUS PARTS OF INIDIA:
RAJASTHANS DAIRY TURNOVER UP:
The Rajasthan Co-Operative Dairy Federation Ltd (RCDF) has recorded a turnover of
Rs. 159 crores during 1996 - 97, a 49% increases over previous focal Rs. 109 crores.
Profitability too increased. Nine unions posted cash profit, size of which earned a net
profit for 1996 - 97 where as in 1993 - 94 only four unions earned cash profit with a
single union producing a net profit.
Milk testing campaign in Jaipur:
Consumers of loose milk in Jaipur are cheated to tune of Rs.26 crores every year by
way of adulteration of water in the milk.
Milk testing campaign popularly known as Doodh Ka Doodh Pani Ka pani was
organized from 15th June 96 covering prime localities of Jaipur city.
More than 600 milk samples were tested in the presence of consumers and they were
simultaneously briefed about the importance of SNF in milk. Detailed analysis that
only 19% of samples were undiluted and remaining 81% samples were containing
water percentage ranging from 10% to 40%. It was also observed that tendency of
selling milk after separating cream from milk valuing to 7.2 lacks per day.

Gujarat milk co-operative nets export house status:
The Gujarat milk co-operative milk marketing federation Ltd (GCMMI) known for
its AMUL brand milk products, reported an 11% rise in its export turnover during
the financial year ended March 1997 from Rs.18.7 crores to Rs.20.5 crores and it has
been accorded the export house status.
It reported a 24% growth and sales figure reached Rs. 1,382 crores from Rs.1, 107
crores. Amul dairy with a yearly turnover of Rs. 380 crores and daily payment of Rs.
70 lacks to 5.51 lacks members in 962 villages celebrates Amulutsav in its 50th year.
Goa to promote dairy industry:
Goa government is now focusing its effort on promoting dairy framing in the state. A
subsidy of 25% up to Rs.25 lacks on investment is provided, giving this sector the
status of industry. Enhanced production will reduced Goa's dependence on imports of
milk from neighboring states. Over 45,000 liters milk comes into the state daily from
dairies in other states as local unions produce 50,000 liters of milk per day.

Andhra Pradesh federation striving to stay a float:
Andhra Pradesh which set an enviable record in the growth of the dairy products and
in the launching of operation flood in the three decades prior to 1991 appears to be
heading for a decline in its position.
Experts have analyzed the causes of the regression but corrective measures which
should have been initiated are still a long way off. The Andhra Pradesh dairy
development co-operative federation (APDDCF) which has major stake in the dairy
industry is gripping with the situation to find a durable solution.
Poor utilization of infrastructure facilities and inability to take timely measures to
tackle competition from private dairies had proved costly for the APDDCF whose
debt equity ratio stands at 1:1:36. The APDDCF has an installed capacity of 23.87
lacks liters per day with 66 milk chilling centers, 7 factories, 2 major dairies and 10
district unions. It has 5683 milk co-operative societies with an enrollment of 6.2 lacks
member producers. The state government has extended financial assistance zip to
35.48 crores of which Rs.26.1 crores came from plan fund of the total share capital of
Rs. 18.18 crores.
In Andhra Pradesh procurement is mostly of buffalo milk, is subject to seasonal
flections. Despite the uncertainties, things went off well for the federation but
liberalization policy of the central Government has boosted the entire of private
enterprises in the dairy sector which has resulted in deep-cuts in the procurement of
milk by APDDCF.

Low productivity of milk cattle in the state and inadequate measure to upgrade the
cattle have also resulted in milk procurement. This situation had cascading effect on
the manufacture of milk products and the capacity had come down from 50% in 1993-
94 to 43% in 1995 - 96. Production of milk products fell by 29% in 1995 compared to
previous year. Of the 10 district unions, the finances of Godavari dist co-operative
milk producers union and that of cuddapha have become so poor that it has been
decided to liquidate the two unions. However the unions of East and West Godavari
districts for better viability and management. The Prodtoor milk union because of its
heavy losses amounting to 13 crores, including 80 lacks which was to go as arrears to
farmers, has been decided to be liquidating. In spite of a steep reduction in the
procurement of milk, the federation was able to maintain its sales turnover at 6.5 lacks
lpd.
The federation has not been able to raise the sale price of milk in proportions to rise in
procurement costs. The coat manpower per liter of milk increased from Rs. 1.33 in
1994 - 95 to Rs. 1.72 in 1995 - 96 and to Rs. 2.12 crores in 1996 - 97. The total
liability of the federation to NDDB stood at Rs. 154.26 crores. The federation has
availed a loan of Rs.8.03 crores from the national co-operative development
corporation to take up integrated dairy development in the non-operation flood areas
of Telangana region. Through the objective of federation has shifted from social
responsibility to commercial viability, it has to maintain a balance between the two,
despite the high operational costs and low capacity utilization. In the organized sector
in A.P., 11 private units have been registered with an installed capacity of 8.67 lacks
lpd. In addition about 35 private units with a capacity less than 10,000 lpd have sprung
up.

Raids on Uttar Pradesh dairies to check adulteration:
Frequent reports on contaminations of milk and milk products have promoted officials
of the health department and UP to launch surprise inspection of dairies across the
state. The raids were conducted after a public cry against the neglect by officials
towards complaints of adulteration in packed milk - based products. A special team of
health officers were sent from Allahabad and Lucknow to raid dairies at various places
fellow in reports of harmful chemicals urea being mixed in milk and milk - based
products.
Private dairies seek into Karnataka:
The Karnataka state Government has received applications from 4 private
organization heritage, Vintage, and Neologies to manufacture milk products and
pasteurized milk. While the state Government has not issued clearance to any of the 4
organizations, there are complaints against the private dairies having violated norms in
milk pasteurization. Minister of Animal Husbandry Mr. Ningaiah said necessary
action would be taken and also stated that the Karnataka milk federation would be
protected from the danger posts by and private dears.
Milk to replace liquor in Haryana:
In order to cover up losses arising out of Government policy liquor prohibition,
Haryana Tourism Corporation plans to convert liquor bars at various resorts into milk
23

bars. While final plans are yet to be formulated, sale of various milk products like
lassie, ice-cream would be undertaken.
Stress on revitalization of co-operatives:
There is an urgent need to revitalize the milk co-operatives in the wake of post
liberalization era which has the mushrooms of a large number of private sector dears
all over India. The state have been instructed by the Government and co-operative
owner dairies tightened their quality testing mechanism that stern action would be
taken against those found indulging in adulteration of milk and sale of such milk
which is a punishable offense under the provisions of "prevention of food adulteration
rules", 1995.
Finance for Hi-tech milk sterilization:
Government of India and France had finalized a protocol under which a loan of 47.7
million francs is being extended to dairy sector in the country this year. Of this, 27.7
million France had gave to NDDB and the rest 20 million francs i.e., 14 crores
roughly to APDDCF for purchase and installation of high temperature short time
sterilization machine. The new machine in contract to the ultra treatment plant under
operation and APDDCF unite will process milk for keeping it in plastic containers for
at least 6 months to 1 year. At present such milk is made available in tetra packs
lasting only 3 months. The purchase of the machine followed a visit of an official
team of A.P. to France in 1995 when an understanding was arrived at for technology

transfer. The machine would have capacity to give out 50,000 lpd and the new milk
packets will be made available by next march.
Scenario of dairy industry:
International scenario of dairy industry:
The liquid milk market:
Average of 14 billion of milk was produced every year in UK, 73 million tons in USA
and India's production is around 75 million tons. Half of the total production of milk is
used for manufacturing other products. In UK the liquid milk sales has seen a decline
since the previous 10 years.
Since 1980 more than 90% of milk was purchased from the milkman. By 1980 this
declined to 89% in 1985 to 81%, in 1990 to 68.3% and by 1995 doorstep delivery
accounted for 44.5% of all milk purchased. Sales in supermarkets and small shops
increased in relation to the decline in doorstep share. The information collected on
international scenario was achieved from internet and it was not updated to the current
year.
Containers:
36% of all the household milk sold in England, Scotland and Wales is sold in glass
bottles, with plastic containers claiming 50% of the market and cartons the remaining
14%. Virtually all milk sold in glass bottles is sold in doorstep delivery while
disposable packaging accounts for almost all shop sales.

Indian scenario of dairy industry:
The main stay in Indian farmers has been agriculture and allied occupations, farm
animals especially cattle have been an integral part of rural India for thousands of
years. During the year 1920 military farms were established to supply adequate raw
milk to the stations. These were well maintained and improved. In 1946 the first
farmers integrated dairy co-operative was established in kaira district at Amend,
which later came to be known as "AMUL". Amul and greater Bombay milk scheme
set together a faster pace of dairy developed with emphasis on developed techniques
of processing and marketing under Indian conditions.
INSTITUTIONAL SUPPORT TO CO-OPERATIVE DAIRYING
INDIAN DAIRY CORPORATION:
The Indian dairy corporation (I.D.C) was set up under companies Act. On 13th
February 1970. It is a Government of India undertaking. The immediate need to setup
I.D.C. was to handle the popularly known "operation flood".
India has emerged as the world's top dairy nation with milk production crossing 75
million tons in 1997-98. It is placed second in milk production when compared to the
USA. The Indian dairy industry production is estimated to have risen from a low of 20
million tons to 75 million tons.

Through our country has 25% of the total world agriculture animals, yet the
production of milk is only 6.5% of the world production. The Government started the
"operation flood" program.
India is the second largest populated country and consumption of milk is also high. In
order to meet the requirements of the people the operation food program was
developed. In every 5 years plan emphasis is even given to agriculture also which
includes farming, dairying etc., In India the state in which the production milk is high
in Gujarat.
It is estimated that the per capita consumption of every Indian is 118 grams. But the
minimum requirement for good health is 210 grams per day. It is also estimated that
the consumption would be 64.40 millions tons in this year. Therefore it is necessary to
develop dairy farming in India.

PROFILE OF VISAKHA DAIRY
Sri Vijaya Visakha District co-operative milk producers Union Ltd., (Visakha co-
operative dairy) Visakhapatnam comprises of three districts viz., Srikakulam,
Vizianagaram and Visakhapatnam. These three districts are constituted in the northern
part of the coastal Andhra Pradesh state and considered to be backward for
agricultural and industrial development. The srikakulam district is declared as the
backward district for the industrial development and the government has sanctioned
subsidy and also sales tax exemption for five years for the date of starting of an
industry. The perennial source of was for irrigation through revivers and prevelets is
also very much limited especially in Visakhapatnam and Vizianagaram districts.
Therefore, the rural farmers mostly belonging to small and marginal categories have
necessarily to depend on some other source of income for their live hood.
Genesis of the organization:
The government after considering dairying is one of the best instrument for bringing
socio-economic development in the rural areas has started a Dairy with an handling
capacity of 10,000 liters per day in 1996 dairying not only creates subsidiary
occupation to the rural farmer by rating reasonable market price for his produce at his
doorstep by also meets the demand of the urban consumers for the supply of hygienic
quality of milk at reasonable price. After observing the success of the small dairy, the
present new dairy was constructed with an initial capacity of 50,000 liters per day
taking load Rs.98.50 lacks from national co-operative development corporation, which
completed and commissioned during the year 1977. This dairy was registered under
28

co-operative societies act in 1973. At the stage, the area of operation was limited to
Visakhapatnam district only. The farmers took lot of interest in dairying after realizing
it as the subsidiary occupation as it is giving them regular income for their live hood
with the result more and more small and marginal farmers land agricultural laborers
joined in this stream for increasing their economy at the village level utilizing the
infrastructure available dairy development through operation flood program this co-
operative dairy has also joined in the line in 1981 and become a member of the AP
dairy development co-operative federation limited at apex. At this stage, the union
comprising of the districts viz. name of "Sri Vijaya Visakha district co-operative milk
producers union limited" during the year 1981-82. The union is changed its name into
mutually aided co-operative society with concern of the act of 1995 from 08-07-
1999 and its name changed as "Sri Vijaya Visakha district milk producers mutually
aided co-operative union limited".
As the production and procurement started increasing year by year with more
participation of rural farmers the handling capacity of Visakha co-operative dairy
increased time to time as follows.
1986-87 50,000 liters to 1, 00,000 liters
1989-90 1, 00,000 liters to 1, 50,000 liters

Welfare activity for the milk producers and employees:
The union has constituted a trust by name "Milk producers and employees
educational, health and medical welfare trust" in the year 1989 with an objective to
provide educational, health and medical facilities to the milk producers, dairy
employees and their children. It is not out of place to mention that this is a unique
enterprises embarked upon by this union in the entire state.
For this initially, an English medium school was started in a private accommodation
from LKG to 2nd standard with strength of 90 children during the year 1986. By the
year 1996 the strength was increased to about 800 with teaching staff strength of 55.
The school is now running up to 10th standard and upgraded to junior college from
1997-98. Permanent school building complex was constructed for the school with a
total outlay of 1 crore for ground and first floor for providing accommodation for class
rooms in the ground floor and hostel accommodation in the first floor to the children
of rural farmers. The buildings are inaugurated on 14-06-1993, and the school was
shifted to that building. Further with a total outlay of Rs.200

Life insurance scheme to the milk producers:
During the year 1997-98 as a welfare measure to the milk producers, life insurance
scheme and accidental policy were covered to nearly 1 lack farmers in this union
under this scheme, an amount of Rs. 10,000/- is being paid to the farmers on natural
death up to an age limit of 60 years without collecting any premium from the farmers.
So far 600 members covered under this scheme, from 04/97 to 03/98.To meet this
expenditure, this union welfare measures expenditure.
Secondly, this union has taken up an accidental policy with UTI Company covering
1.20 lack farmers and the decreased family can get Rs.20, 000/- under this
programmed. This is only small attempt to help the farmers to support moral courage
when they were in desserts by loosing their family-earning member.
Milk powder plant:
As the receipts of milk exceeded the 2 lack per day capacity and the peak procurement
was reached to the level of 214,000 liters during the year 1992, whereas the local
liquid milk sales is about 1 lack liters per day. The surplus milk is to be converted into
products. For this process of conversion, the surplus milk is being sent to Vijay Wada
by incurring heavy expenditure on transport along involving a risk of long distance
transportation of the highly perishable product; in addition huge amounts were paid to
MRF Vijay Wada towards conversion charges of the SMP. Basing on the above facts,
the circumstances lead to establish a milk powder factory with a capacity of 13 mts
per day at Visakhapatnam with a capital outlay of Rs. 7 crores, which was
commissioned during May 1998.

New projects taken over by Visakha Dairy to improve quality of the
products and satisfy the customers:
Due to the extension and welfare activities taken up by the Visakha union, Dairying
has almost become a main occupation for the milk producers in the drought districts
Srikakulam, Vizianagaram and Visakhapatnam especially where the rains are
insufficient. Thereby the milk procurement was surpassed the capacities of various
levels of the Dairy. Therefore necessity arose for the expansion of the dairy capacity
for handling the excess milk procured. For this the following projects are planned and
are under active execution.
Fat handling unit - ll with ice bank system refrigeration plant and butter deep freeze
with an estimated cost of Rs.24 lacks.
Milk pouch packaging unit - II with cold store and plant room with an estimated cost
of 2.56 lacks.
UHT/ASPFTIC Milk plant with preprocessing and packaging machines on differed
payment basis with an estimated cost of Rs. 848 lacks.

CONCEPT OF JOB SATISFACTION
Human resources play a crucial role in the development process of modern economics.
ARTHUR LEWIS observed there are greater differences in the development
between countries which seem to have roughly equal resources. So it is necessary to
enquire into the difference in human behavior, , it is often felt that, though the
exploitation of natural resources, availability of physical and financial resources and
international aid play prominent role in growth of modern economics, none of these
factors is more significant then efficient and committed man power. It is fact, said that
all development comes from the human mind.
Human resource is considered to be the most valuable asset in any organization it is
the sum-total of inherent abilities, acquired knowledge and skills represented by the
talents and aptitudes of the employed persons who comprise executives, supervisors
and the rank and file employees. It may be noted here that HR should be utilized to the
maximum possible extent in order to achieve individual and organizational goals; it is
thus the employees performance which ultimately decides and attainment of goals.
However, the employee performance is to a large extent influenced by motivation and
job satisfaction.
44

7/29/2019 Ashik Project
45/95
Meaning of JOB SATISFACTION:
Job satisfaction refers to a persons feeling of satisfaction on the job, which as a
motivation to work. It is not the self satisfaction, happiness or self contentment but
the satisfaction on the job.
The term relates to the total relationship between an individual and the employer for
which he is paid. Satisfaction does mean the simple feeling-state accompanying the
attainment of any goal; the end-state is feeling accompanying the attainment by an
impulse of its objective job dissatisfaction does mean absence of motivation at work.
Research workers differently described the factors contributing to job satisfaction and
job dissatisfaction. HOPPOCK describes job satisfaction as, any combination of
psychological, physiological and environmental circumstances that cause and person
truthfully to say I am satisfied with my job.
Job satisfaction is defined as the, pleasurable emotional state resulting from the
appraisal of ones job as achieving or facilitating the achievement of ones job
values. In contrast job dissatisfaction is defined as the pleasurable emotional state
resulting from the appraisal of ones job as frustrating or blocking the attainment ones
job values or as entailing disvalues. However, both satisfaction and dissatisfaction
were seen as, a function of the perceived relationship between what on perceives it as
offering or entailing.

Theories of job satisfaction:
There are vital differences among experts about the concept of job satisfaction.
Basically, there are four approaches / theories of job satisfaction. They are ..
1. Fulfillment theory.
2. Discrepancy theory.
3. Equity theory, and
4. Two-factor theory.
1. Fulfillment theory:
The proponents of this theory measure satisfaction terms of rewards a person receives
or the extent to which his needs are satisfied. Further they thought that there is a
direct/positive relationship between job satisfaction and the actual satisfaction of the
expected needs. The main difficulty in this approach is that job satisfaction as observed
by willing, is not only a function of what a person receives but also what he feels he
should receive as there would be considerable difference in the actual and expectations
of persons. Thus, job satisfaction cannot be regarded as merely a function of how much
a person receives from his job. Another important factor/ variable that should be
including predicting job satisfaction accurately is the strength of the individuals desire
of his level of aspiration in a particular area. This led to the development of the
discrepancy-theory of job satisfaction.
46
-
7/29/2019 Ashik Project
47/95
2. Discrepancy theory:
The proponents of this theory argue that satisfaction is the function of what a person
actually receives from any job situation and what he thinks be should receive or what
he expects to receive. When the actual satisfaction derived is less than expected
satisfaction, it results in dissatisfaction. As discussed earlier, job satisfaction and
dissatisfaction are functions of the perceived relationship between what one wants
from ones job and what one perceives it is offering. This approach does not make it
dear whether or not over satisfaction is a part of dissatisfaction and if so, how dies
differ from dissatisfaction. This led to the development of equity-theory of job
satisfaction.
3. Equity theory:
The proponents of this theory are of the view that a persons satisfaction is determined
by his perceived equity, which in turn is determined by his perceived equity, which in
turn is determined by his input-output balance compared to his comparison of others
input-output balance, it-output balance is the perceived ratio of what a person receives
from his job relative to what he contributes to the job. This theory is of the view that
both under the over rewards lead to dissatisfaction while the under-reward causes
feelings of unfair treatment, over-reward leads to feelings of guilt and discomfort.
47
-
7/29/2019 Ashik Project
48/95
4. Two -factor theory:
As discussed earlier, this theory was developed by Hertzberg, Manusner, Peterson and
Capwell who identified certain factors satisfies and dissatisfies. Factors such as
achievement, recognition, responsibility etc are satisfy, the presence of which causes
satisfaction but their absence does not result in dissatisfaction. On the other hand,
factors such as supervision, salary, working conditions etc are dissatisfies, the absence
of which causes dissatisfaction. Their presence, however, does not result in job
satisfaction. The studies designed to test their theory failed to give any support to this
theory, as it seems that a person can get both satisfaction and dissatisfaction at the
time, which is not valid.
Factors of job satisfaction:
Job satisfaction refers to a general attribute which an employee retains on account of
many specific attributes in the following areas :( 1)personal factors, (2)Factors
inherent in the job, and (3)Factors controlled by the management. There are different
factors on which job satisfaction depends. Important among them are discussed
hereunder.
48
-
7/29/2019 Ashik Project
49/95
Personal factors:
They include workers sex, education, age marital status and their personal
characteristics, family background, socio-economic background and the like.
Factors inherent in the job:
These factors have recently been studied and found to be important in the selection of
employees. Instead of being guided by their co-workers and supervisors, the skilled
workers would rather like to be guided by their own inclination to choose jobs in
consideration of what they have to do. These factors include the work itself,
conditions, influence of internal and external environment on the job which are
uncontrolled by the management etc.
Factors controlled by the management:
They include the nature of supervision, job security, kind of work group, wage rate
promotional opportunities, transfer policy, duration of work and sense of
responsibilities. All these factors greatly influence the workers. Their presence in the
organization motivates the workers and providers & sense of job satisfaction.
Though performance and job satisfaction are influenced by different set of factors,
these two can be related if management links rewards to performance. It is viewed that
job satisfaction is a consequence of performance rather than a cause of it. Satisfaction
strongly influences the productive efficiency of an organization where as absenteeism,
employee turnover, alcoholism, irresponsibility, un-commitment is the result of job
49
-
7/29/2019 Ashik Project
50/95
dissatisfaction. However, job satisfaction or dissatisfaction forms opinions about the
job and the organization which result in employee morale.
Concept of job satisfaction:
The term job satisfaction was brought to limelight by HOPPOCK (1935). He reviewed
32 studies on job satisfaction conducted prior to 1933 and observed that job
satisfaction is a combination of psychological, physiological and environmental
circumstances that cause a person to say, I am satisfied with my job. Such a
description indicates the variety of variables that influence the satisfaction of the
individual but tell us nothing about the nature of job satisfaction.
50
-
7/29/2019 Ashik Project
51/95
Measurement of job satisfaction:
Because of some of the problems indicated above, measurements of job satisfaction
have come to acquire the same fate as the measurement of intelligence. Since there is
no agreement on a specific definition, generally questionnaires are developed to
measure satisfaction with various aspects of work and the resultant behavior or score
is called job satisfaction. Today, as intelligence is defined as what is measured by
intelligence test, job satisfaction can also be defined as what is measured by job
satisfaction questionnaire.
Most studies of job satisfaction have been concerned with operational sing it rather
than defining it. According to Locke (1969) such an approach describes that a certain
relationship works but tells nothing as to why it works. This seems to be the case with
job satisfaction. Researchers have been found to be more interested in choosing the
unit of measurement from the several available but little by way of a definition of job
satisfaction as a precursor for the choice of the unit of measurement.
However, despite these numerous attempts in the past, various others will be made in
future to measure job satisfaction. Perhaps, the earliest of all the known scales of
measuring job satisfaction is that by HOPPOCK (1935). He developed essentially four
items, each one with seven alternative responses. These are given in annexure 1. If a
person chooses the least satisfied of the seven alternatives, he gets a score of 100,
and 700 if he chooses most satisfied alternative for each item. Other alternatives
represent a 100-point addition to the previous alternative. Thus if a person chooses
first alternative for all four items his total score is 400. Similarly, if he chooses second
alternative in all four items he gets a score of 800, and so on. The maximum total
51
-
7/29/2019 Ashik Project
52/95
possible is 2800 provided all four seventh alternatives are chosen. But HOPPOCK
takes the average of the four items (range 100-700) for developing the satisfaction
index. Although in its original form, job satisfaction index by HOPPOCK is generally
not used now but its variations can be spotted in the literature.
Different factors which satisfies Indian employees
In his study on American employees, HOPPOCK (1935) identified six factors that
contributed to job satisfaction among them. These are as follows:
1. The way individual reacts to unpleasant situations.
2. The facility with which he adjusts himself to other persons.
3. His relative status in the social and economic group with which he identifies
himself.
4. The nature of the work in relation to the abilities, interests and preparation of the
worker.
5. Security.
6. Loyalty.

Job satisfaction and work behavior:
Generally the level of job satisfaction seems to have some relation with various
aspects of work behavior like absenteeism, adjustment, accidents, productivity and
union affiliation. Although several studies have shown varying degrees of relationship
between them and job satisfaction, it is not quite clear whether these relationships are
correlative or casual. In other words, is job satisfaction or dissatisfaction a cause of
these aspects of work behavior or whether work behavior causes satisfaction or
dissatisfaction? Most studies have used a correlative design to examine the
relationship between them and have found the nature of relationship varying
depending upon the nature of the aspect of job behavior. There are few studies that
have used a casual design in which they have first identified the high-low groups on
work behavior and they have taken the job satisfaction data.
53
-
7/29/2019 Ashik Project
54/95
Job satisfaction and accidents:
Not very long ago Sigmund Freud made the statement that accidents just do not
happen. Suggesting thereby that perhaps chance is not the only thing to which
accidents could be attributed. Some people tend to be more prone to accidents than
others. Studies have shown a variety of variables that seen to explain at least to some
extent, the reasons why accidents take place. These could be reasons in once own
personal life, work itself, and the environment in which one is working. According to
KIREHNER (1961), accidents are the means of venting anger and frustration and
getting attention.
Research on the relationship between job satisfaction and accident, generally
shows that the higher the satisfaction with the job, the lower is the rate of accidents.
JOB SATISFACTION AND ADJUSTMENTS
If the employee is facing problems in general adjustment, it is likely to affect his work
life. Al though it is difficult to define adjustment most psychologists and organizational
behaviorists have been able to narrow it down to what they call neuroticism and
anxiety. Neuroticism, perhaps, can be examined in the light of what is socially
desirable. Generally deviation from socially expected behavior has come to be
identified as neurotic behavior. Since the socially expected/desirable behavior may
change from generation to generation, the symptoms of deviant behavior may also
change.
54
-
7/29/2019 Ashik Project
55/95
Chronic absenteeism may verge neuroticism while a person coming barefoot to the
office may be a milder form of it. Though it may be easy to identify symptoms of
neuroticism it is very difficult to know what causes it. Family tensions, job tensions,
social tension, emotional stress, fear, anxiety of any such sources could be a source of
neuroticism.
JOB SATISFACTION AND UNIONISM
In the Indian context where unions are strong and persuasive, to think of job
satisfaction with out unionism would be very unrealistic. Although a large no of work
force, particularly in rural sector is not unionized, in large cities and industrial belts
unions are a fact of life. If the organizational climate, personal policies and practices of
management are seen as dissatisfying, most workers tend to look up at the union
official to settle their grievances. Not only this, the dissatisfaction of the employees
with the work and work environment is often exploited by union leaders to gain
membership and support of the work force.
55

7/29/2019 Ashik Project

JOB SATISFACTION AND PRODUCTIVITY
It is generally assumed that a satisfied employee will also be a productive employee.
On the face of it one may find this to be irrefutable fact. The evidence particularly in
the west shows no relationship between job satisfaction and productivity. Three main
surveys of existing research on job satisfaction on productivity suggest virtually no
evidence of any relationship between these two variables. One of the earlier surveys of
Bray field and Crockett (1955) examined a number of studies on the western sample
and found to relationship between job satisfaction and performance. Similar findings
are reported by Hertzberg and his associates (1957), Vroom (1964) reported the
findings of 20 studies published during 1945 to 1963 and found a median correlation of
0.14 with a range of 0.86 to -0.31.
JOB SATISFACTION AND PERSONAL CHARACTERISTICS
When a person comes to work, brings with him total personality, his attributes, likes
and dislikes, his personal characteristics and these in turn, influence the satisfaction he
derives from his work. As work is one of the necessary aspects of the total life
experience of an individual, it becomes important to examine how his personal
characteristics influence his job. Personal characteristics here refer to such bio-social
variable as age, marital status, education, length of service, and income, etc.
56

JOB SATISFACTION AND ORGANIZATIONAL OBJECTIVES
Much of job satisfaction research has centered on the correlative studies examining the
association of personality or job factors with job satisfaction. In these studies the
respondents have evaluated their understanding of how satisfied or dissatisfied they felt
with various aspects of jobs and whether this had anything to do with such factors as
age, sex, years of experience, income, etc. in the order set of studies the respondents
have been divided into groups based on their biographic variables and the effect of such
variables has been studied on satisfaction or dissatisfaction. Alternatively, based on
satisfaction score they have been divided into groups of high, low and moderate and
back ward analysis is done to see how they differ on biographic or other job variables.
Not much is known about how the overall goals of the organization contribute to the
degree of satisfaction or dissatisfaction. A study of the relationship between satisfaction
and organizational objectives ma throw light on a variety of issues that other wise may
not be possible for example, such a study may help organizations to develop
organizational level plans to induce greater satisfaction; help the employees to develop
an identity with the organization, or just improve many studies are conducted on this
issue on Indian respondents. However, there is one study that seems to deal direct with
this issue.
Khan Walla and Jain (1984) designed a research to study how goals of organizations
affect the satisfaction level of the managers. In this study the unit of analysis was
organization as a whole and not the individual responses of the respondents.

ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION
Human resources management is one of the vital areas of management in any
business. The success of an organization mainly depends on these human resources.
The level of satisfaction of employees on their job ultimately determines the
productivity level in any organization. Hence one of the important areas need to be
focused in this regard is Job Satisfaction.
Visakha Dairy employs more than 890 employees and was successfully run all
through these years. An attempt has been made to assess the level of Job Satisfaction
among the employees of Visakha Dairy. A questionnaire has been surveyed to a
sample of 60 respondents adopting random sampling method. Their perceptions have
been analyzed and interpreted in this chapter. Every employee who has been

SUMMARY
Human Resource is considered to be the most valuable asset in any
organization. It is the sum-total of inherent abilities, acquired knowledge and skills
represented by the talents and aptitudes of the employed persons who comprise
executives, supervisors and the rank and file employees. It may be noted here that
human resources should be utilized to the maximum possible extent, in order to
achieve individual and organizational goals; it is thus the employees performance
which ultimately decides and attainment of goals. However, the employee
performance is to a large extent influenced by motivation and job satisfaction.
JOB SATISFACTION plays a vital role in any industry or any organization or
business. Organization expects efficient performance from their employees in order to
contribute to the attainment of the individual goals job satisfaction is necessary. Job
satisfaction refers to a persons feeling of satisfaction on the job, which as a motivation
to work. It is not the self-satisfaction, happiness or self-contentment but the satisfaction
on the job.
Generally the level of job satisfaction seems to have some relation with various
aspects of work behavior like absenteeism, adjustment, accidents, productivity and
union affiliation. Although several studies have shown varying degrees of relationship
between them and job satisfaction, it is not quite clear whether these relationships are
correlative or casual.
