ABSTRACT
The research study has been intended to examine the relationship between employees’ job satisfaction and their on job performance and its impact on retention, turnover and execution evaluation framework at the Business Universal Development Bank Ltd. in Kathmandu, Nepal. Because of new regulations being recommended by NRB (Central Bank) for expanding four times capital of the banks and financial institutions (BFIs) to make their capital base stronger, BUD Bank has been confronting difficulties of (i) expanding four times its paid capital and (ii) channelizing the credits all the more proficiently and effectively. In the request to adapt to these circumstances, the employees need to expect the basic role by taking a couple of profitable and capable drives. For this, the management needs to review the employees’ present job satisfaction, and its impact on their performance, retention, and turnover for taking appropriate measures for further change on upgrading their execution to extend profitability.
It has been endeavoured to audit different articles/ international journals displayed by various specialists/researchers/scholars on the points i.e. job satisfaction, and its impacts on job performance, retention, turnover, and performance evaluation. It is found that JS has the significant relationship with JP, retention, turnover, and performance evaluation. As indicated by authors Locke (1976); Olusola, Funmilola and Sola (2013); and Velnampy and Sivesan (2012), there are six to ten variables of job satisfaction and these have positive impacts on job performance, retention, turnover, and execution assessment. In any case, there are considered six variables (work assigned, salary, promotion, supervision, colleagues, and working environment) of job satisfaction proposed by Locke (1976) for this study. These variables are regular to all types of organisations. Olusola, Funmilola and Sola (2013) find in their study that these six variables of JS have significant positive effect on JP demonstrating the entirely great relationship between JS and JP.
The methodology has been prepared with research design, sources of data, sampling techniques and selected60 participants out of 100 staffs excluding junior staffs and received 100 percent response rate,ethical issues discussed, measurement items of each factor being fixed with valid source, quantitative & qualitative methods for data collection such as questionnaire and open questions group discussions, and selection of data analysis methods such as Cronbach Alpha (reliability test), Person’s Correlation Coefficients, and Multiple Regression Analysis; and results from pilot test encouraging. All data/information collected are found reliable.
Findings from data analysis are found i.e. i) respondents profile: gender- around 52% male and 48% female; ii )education-53% masters degree and 40% bachelor's degree holders, remaining lower degree; excellence of measure: reliability analysis shows that measures are above .70, ranging from .71 to .83 per Cronbach Alpha; descriptive analysis: mean and std. deviation of all variables are above moderate iii) Pearsons” correlation coefficients and regression analysis show: job satisfaction has correlation (r=.379,β =.397 ) with job performance and (r=.347,β =.347) with retention and positive correlation (r=.204,β =.108) with turnover;Hypothesis: First scenario- correlation between 6 independent variables of job satisfaction + performance appraisal, and 4 dependent variables JS, JP, Retention and Turnover and Second scenario- correlation between job satisfaction independent variable and dependent variables JP, Retention and Turnover, are accepted results.
Discussions on findings of data analysis and outcomes of the literature review are made and conclusions are drawn that job satisfaction has a good correlation with job performance as the satisfied employee gives better performance and ultimately organisational commitment. It has also impacts on retention, turnover and performance appraisal as well.
Recommendations are made to BUD Bank Management based on conclusions that the bank needs to focus on the annual review of company policy related HR and factors affecting to job satisfaction, job performance, retention, and turnover in addition to (i) developing positive work environment, (ii) recognition and reward, (iii) increase employee engagement and involvement, (iv) develop the skills and capability of workforce, and (v) measure job satisfaction annually. These will help to improve job satisfaction significantly.
Key words: job performance, Job satisfaction, retention, turnover, and performance appraisal system.

CHAPTER-1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Study Background
The research study had been undertaken to investigate the relationship between employee’s job satisfaction (JS) and their on the job performance (JP) at Business Universal Development Bank Ltd. (BUD Bank), Kathmandu, Nepal in the month of April 2016. The survey had covered the 60 participants among 100employees from head office and 13 branch offices of the bank excluding low-level staff. The study was intended to have findings on the correlation between employee’s JS and JP, and further, satisfaction’s effects on job execution, retention, turnover, and performance appraisal system. The recommendations made according to findings may be helpful to the Management of the BUD Bank to cope the situations being faced by the bank due to new regulations prescribed by the Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB). Properly, the BUD Bank needs to extend its capital with four times as much by strategy for promulgating bonus share and right share to the owners/investors. With the expanded capital, the BUD Bank needs to enhance its business growth altogether inside a brief time frame making it financially feasible. With a specific end goal to bear on this circumstance, the administration needs to audit current worker's JS and their JP and its effect on retention, turnover, and performance appraisal lastly its impact to organisational performance.
Akfopure (2006) says that Job satisfaction has been a meaningful subject for many years. As the people spent a major part of their life at work, it gives status to them and also ties them with the society. The satisfied employee is found to be dedicated to the job and would perform his/her duties well. Afterwards, the employee’s job satisfaction level affects their performance ultimately influencing the performance of the organization as well. Fiorita, Young, Bozeman, and Meurs (2007) contend that the staff satisfaction and commitment can demonstrate the best approach to valuable results, for example, better execution, viability, and profitability, and diminish absenteeism at both individual and organisational levels. Hence, it is vital for the Management of an organisation to know the measurements that can impact its workers' JS level. Essentially, it would alter the organisation execution too
It is accepted norm that the organisation practices to retain those satisfied employees who are suitable for certain important positions. It is possible only if there is made an organisational environment and culture to keep them happy. Such step will help to meet the changing demands and needs of private organisation globally. Balasundram and Dr Brabete (2010) argue in a study in Sri Lanka Bank that the better promotion criteria, good pay system, right work assigned, and better working conditions lead to employee’s performance increased at the high level.
1.2 Purpose of Study
The Final Dissertation has been prepared to present results being obtained during processing and analysis of primary data and secondary data pertaining to learning the connection between components of JS and JP and its effect on retention, turnover, and performance appraisals based on the analysis of attitudes, opinions, and behaviors of staffs at BUD Bank in Nepal. Based on the results obtained, the recommendations are made to help the Bank Management to cope current situation raised due to change in financial policy and regulations in the country.
This study has helped to inspect which among the measurements of employment satisfaction is the key constraint that builds work performance. Also, the investigation will locate the relative impacts of variables on, for example, retention of workers, diminishing turnover, poor execution examinations, and recognition on the workplace. In the past, some empirical surveys conducted by below researchers indicated that there were the strong relations among JS, JP and organisational commitment, and its positive and negative impacts on other variables as well. (Kithuku, 2012, Pushpakumari, 2008; Iqbal&Rizv, 2012; Osibanjo, Kehinde, &Abioden, 2012; AlinaHyz, 2010; Basit&Akber, 2014; Dr Velnampy&Sivesen, 2012; Humayn, Zaheer, and …). The study has indicated that job satisfaction has the significant positive impact on improving performance, increasing retention, reducing turnover, and showing better performance appraisal system.
1.3 Problem Statement
Nepal encounters in the advancement of quality assurance in the banking sector in the course of the most recent decade and the introduction of new regulations will support the quality assurance framework sooner rather than later. The effect of the economy recession, globalisation and information explosion have boundless results on the budgetary approaches. Cross-border advancement in financial institutions has made difficulties to country policies, control and quality assurance. The challenge is to carry out an execution of incorporation for reducing the number of financial establishments and encouraging bankers to make greater by paid-up capital expanded or converging with better affiliations, giving comprehensive training, commitment and contribution of all staff in banks. In this context, on July 23 Thursday 2015as per Economy Policy for fiscal year 2015/16 (ref:www.nepalrastrabank/economypolicy2015/16), Nepal Rastra Bank (Central Bank) presented the extra capital necessities for the banks and financial institutions (BFIs) to make their capital base more grounded. This new arrangement needs to build four times paid up capital of BFIs will fortify the capital base of the managing an accounting framework and guarantee financial related stability. (Ref:http://thehimalayantimes.com/ business/nrb-raises-bank-capital-requirement-to-rs-8-billion/)
Two annual reports (2014/15 and 2015/16) of BUD Bank have been reviewed well. It is noted that the bank could not release loans equivalent to more than 60% of total deposits. Therefore, the bank was planning to open new branch offices in other parts of the country. Above statement indicates that BUD Bank has been facing challenges of (i) increasing four times its paid capital and (ii) channelizing the loans more efficiently and effectively.In order to cope with these situations in BUD Bank, the employees need to assume the critical role by taking a few productive and powerful drives. For this reason, the administration needs to survey the workers' JS and its effect on their performance for taking suitable measures with regards to the adequacy of workers job satisfaction on enhancing their execution to expand profitability. This research report would be helpful for the BUD Bank Management to comprehend quality and shortcoming of their employees and how staffs execution could be expanded up to the normal level to accomplish the target. In this way, it is urgently required to embrace a study on the correlation between employees’ JS and their on JP performance in BUD Bank to survey quality and shortcoming of their staffs for further change to adapt this circumstance for four times capital increased and adequate loans flow efficiently.
Further, if the employees are not satisfied then there is raised the negative impact to the organisation regarding substitution cost and upset work and influence the administration's vision to construct and support the financial development and competitiveness. This is quite compelling for financial Institutions, in light of the fact that the expenses of contracting and preparing new workers are high. Along these lines, the organisation should attempt to keep a steady workforce, which additionally diminishes the dangers of worsening in goods/services provided to its customers. In most cases, when workers notice a strong connection between the affiliation and their work, then it is normal that workers will likely stay with their organisation and be extremely devoted
There should be a solid relationship between satisfied workers and their work execution, at last, expanding organisational performance. No doubt if individuals like their occupations, their happiness would be indicated in their working style and may have positive perspectives from their clients as well and it will add to association accomplishment.Adversely, this condition doesn't generally happen. With a specific end goal to guarantee that workers provide the high duty/responsibility, for which administration should arrange environment for high occupation satisfaction that should get by workers.It is noted that the top administration of the organisation has the small knowledge of how to fulfil their workers and how this current level of workers’ satisfaction impacts their dedication to the organisation. Concerning this issue, this research was led to analyse the correlation between the work performance and employment satisfaction among workers.
This can be expensive to the company when workers encounter low employment satisfaction and commitment of an organisation.It could happen due to low salary paid to low level staff, and fewer opportunities for headway. It is crucial to point out that absenteeism can bring about lessened efficiency when unhappy workers don't notice any connection among the assignments they do and the organisation’s productivity. It is highly recommended to caring the issues of absenteeism and high turnover for better organisation performance. Therefore, it is critical to analyse the above two variables being contemplated and decide the components that would influence responsibility.
Occasionally, workers may not depart the institution notwithstanding when they are dissatisfied or don't notice centered on the company. This situation requires studying of the two variables serving a considerably more noteworthy significance. At the point when employees are disappointed, this may make complaints, and it can prompt diminishing organisation efficiency and productivity.
Another motivation behind why analysts are keen on examining whether job satisfaction would prompt better execution and eventually hierarchical responsibility is on the grounds that this may expand efficiency. A supervisor ought to examine their workers’ satisfaction level and it can check whether there is the commitment from their workers for better execution. Workers profitability is identified to a great extent with their job satisfaction level and indeed, the rate of turnover can be lessened with a more elevated amount of employment satisfaction and organisation commitment. Subsequently, an organisation needs to concentrate on the connections between two variables-JS and JP.
As people, workers are likewise subject to issues of disappointment at the work environment. Workers would not confirm to give the best performance if they are not satisfied. Moreover, it is highly likely that their work execution may not accomplish the objectives. It would obviously prompt other unfriendly impacts to the company. Subsequently, it is urgently needed to comprehend the components that increase job satisfaction among workers so the administration takes steps to make the favorable working environment that is in accordance with their desires. It has been argued by Allen and Meyer (1990) that the workers’ behaviour indicates their commitments towards their company. Regularly, the workers will confer in the event that they are truly fulfilled by their current employment. The workers’ satisfaction regularly relies on upon what they can achieve from the occupation.
It is especially urgent these days to investigate the connection between JS and JP, as workers regularly don't like to work at the same company or work all through the lifetime. Additionally, it is very difficult to find suitable candidates for specific posts always.When once the suitable individuals are nominated, the company will jump at the chance to endeavour to hold those employees. On the off chance that two workers show diverse JS levels and that satisfaction for the job can be demonstrated to prompt obligation of an organization, the business will probably contract the worker having high employment satisfaction. Naturally, the business house would like to have and retain the most satisfied workers to stay with the company. Another fact concerning why satisfied worker will prompt better execution and organisation commitment is that a more elevated amount of JS may prompt a better life for family and decrease stress. The satisfaction will motivate workers to prompt the dedication toward an organization. Therefore, a high amount of employment satisfaction may prompt better work execution and lessening anxiety (Cote and Heslin, 2003). A worker’s sentiments of employment satisfaction may influence his or her feelings. This inclination will influence the employee’s practices outside and inside the company. Wilson and Rosenfeld (1990) argue that negative and positive behaviour towards job may apply strong consequences for some types of organisational conduct. At the point when an employee is disappointed with his or her occupation, he or she may have negative feelings. In such case, the employee may begin to consider leaving the company. Then, the choice procedure will be followed by the employee with recognising and assessing options whether to leave or to remain focused on employment. The succession of choices will alter the level of the worker’s dedication. As the human being, workers are additionally subject to issues of disappointment in the work environment. The unhappy workers may not be obligated to giving the best. Additionally, it is likely that the workers’ performance may not accomplish the objective. This would obviously prompt other unfavourable impacts to the company
Executives will be most inspired by thinking about the correlation between work satisfaction and performance for having the organizational commitment, since it would turn out to be clear regarding how imperative and commendable it would be to hold their most satisfied workers. Such information would encourage executives to make the workers satisfied. It would be the advantageous for the company, because normally the same workers would be highly dedicated. At the point when workers are dedicated, their own objectives may run in accordance with those of the company for which they are working.
Despite the positions or the organisations where workers work, they bear substantial responsibilities toward guaranteeing improvement in their institutions. Despite our astonishing technological advances, individuals take the necessary steps of the association and are eventually in charge of its prosperity. Sadly, most organisations, of any size, neglect to give the components that influence their employees by the hearts or urge their workers to execute at their capacities. This is unquestionable that individuals’ satisfactions in their occupations are being partly responsible for guaranteeing advancement in any nation. Thus, the administration framework should be deliberately arranged keeping in mind the end goal to create the best outcomes for all parties concerned. The employees’ roles are challenging and wide. They likewise need to stay aware of updated information, advancements and procedures keeping in mind the end goal to give the best to their organisations.
1.1 Research Objective
Research study has been aimed to find out correlation between JS and JP, and the effects of job satisfaction on work execution, retention, turnover, and execution appraisal through the applications of scientific procedures in order to achieve followings:
(i) To analyse the dimensions affecting worker's employment satisfaction, performance, and worker’s impression of the workplace.
(ii) To recognise and assess the effect of the components adding to the retention of worker's inside working environment, and contribution to job satisfaction in reducing turnover.
(iii) To investigate basically the variables influencing to poor appraisal approaches and to assess an effect of such evaluation on the workers job performance.
(iv) To set up the suggestions for the administration of BUD Bank on enhancing employment satisfaction and work performance and its role in retention , turnover, and performance appraisals.
1.2 Research Question
There has been formulated following research question to find out the objective of the study, as follows:
i. What is the correlation between JS and JP of BUD Bank employees, and its impact on retention, turnover, and performance appraisal?
1.3 Implications of the Study
The study implications can provide with numerous focal points to several agencies, for example, Department of Human Resource Administration in framing procedures for the investigative and exact inquires about. The study and past literature have been focused on reviewing the correlation between job satisfaction and work performance among professional employees in financial organisation, particular in the private sector in Nepal. This study endeavoured to concentrate on the correlation between JS and JP among the workers in private financial institution.
The discoveries of the examination would, above all else, make happy the management of private and public institutions to understand the JS level required and its role in improving JP among staffs of the private financial institution, especially, in Nepal. In addition, it would give significant data to the administration for having knowledge about the elements of JS which affect JP. This is noted that job satisfaction has frequently been seen as a vital supporter for improving job performance of workers and their job responsibility level. It is most extreme imperative that the administration is aware of this fact and comprehends these components. This would help the administration in making favourable workplace to expand job satisfaction, subsequently work commitment, increasing retention and diminishing turnover.
This study would likewise be valuable for the private and public banking sectors as well as Ministry of Finance, Human Resources Department. Knowing the components that can add to job satisfaction for enhancing work execution among the staff of public and private sectors would encourage the banking industry in taking decisions related to the profession in order to profit the workers, and also the organisation performance and commitment. The findings of the examination would add to the assemblage of information particularly with respect to the role of JS for improving JP among employees of the private banks in Nepal.
Expert trusts that the research work would be helpful to the management of the company to get the chance for being thoughtful about employment fulfillment and staffs work responsibility in the direction of the organisation. Other than that, additionally the organisation may be capable of acknowledging the factor that influences job satisfaction and straightforwardly to the work performance. This is significance to hold the important one and minimise the turnover. Keeping in mind the end goal to stand up to the diminishing in the economy, the businesses should be ready and concern more in the direction of worker’s satisfaction.
In last, it is believed that this finding would further add to the assortment of data and are a valuable source of information including for future investigation with respect to this subject.
1.4 Key Terms’ Definitions
1.4.1 Job Satisfaction:
It has been argued by Armstrong (2006) that job satisfaction term hints to the perspective and self-esteem for people having their job.The employee has job satisfaction if he/she has the favourable and positive feelings towards the job. The employee does not have job satisfaction if he/she shows unfavourable and negative attitudes towards the job.
1.4.2 Job performance:
John P. Campbell defines job performance as the activities performed by an individual-level, or a person does complete something.
Job performance is a judgment whether a worker does his/her duty better. Job performance is examined academically as part of industrial-organizational psychology and it is also considered a component of human resource administration. Performance is a crucial factor which affects organisational outcomes and success.
1.4.3 Retention
Worker retention is a key test for every corporate organization. It is the after effect of a business' endeavours to deal with its turnover and hold important employees. Numerous organisations address retention with vital activities that straight forwardly affects turnover issues Joel Garfinkle 2005
1.4.4 Turnover
Employee turnover describes to the number or rate of employees who leave an organisation and are substituted by new workers. Measurement of workers turnover can be useful to the management that needs to inspect explanations behind turnover or appraisal the expense to contract for budget purposes
1.4.5 Performance Appraisal System
Performance appraisal is a part of career development and comprises of normal audits of worker performance inside organisations. Performance Appraisal System is the framework and procedure through which evaluation is completed in an organisation. The techniques incorporate deciding the sorts of information gathered and assessed by the examination, the structures and frequencies of correspondence that occur amongst employers and their employees, and the different sorts of assessment devices used to gauge execution. Rosa Cintrón, PhD
This chapter explains study background, purposes, problems raised, research objective, research question, study implications, and key terms definitions. It follows Literature Review, Methodology, Findings, Theoretical Approach and its Implications, Conclusions and Recommendations, discussing on the correlation between job performance and job satisfaction and its effect on retention, turnover, and performance appraisal.Further, all data and information being presented have valid sources.
CHAPTER-2 LITERATURE REVIEW
2.1 Introduction
The chapter comprises of audits of literature, explaining need and motivation approaches and JS and JP. In addition, it will also highlight on the factors of job satisfaction along with their effects on job performance, and the correlation between JS and JP and also the role of performance appraisal system, and finally, it will end with the development of the hypothesis.
2.2 Job Satisfaction
Researchers have presented numerous definitions for job satisfaction in various ways, however having a limit on same implications. They have completed numerous models or speculations in connection with employment satisfaction. They refer that job satisfaction is a vital element of the worker's psychology and practices.
"Hypothesis of job satisfaction” has been characterised by Herzbergetal (1959) as the mainstream known as a two-variable theory. The hypothesis clarifies primarily two sorts of requirements for workers, i.e. hygiene and motivation. The hygiene variables cover the necessities of employees, for example, pay, assignments, supervision, promotion, physical working conditions, associated relations, advantages, and so forth. Interestingly, job dissatisfaction occurs in the circumstance where hygiene elements are not found in some workplace. Furnham (2002) says that it doesn't as a matter, of course, give full satisfaction when hygiene needs are supplied. Just dissatisfaction level is diminished. This study has likewise demonstrated that Job satisfaction has relationships with better work execution, positive values of work, the higher motivation of workers, low turnover and low absenteeism. For the most part, managers are discovered much worry to know the employment satisfaction level in their organisations. Later, they can evaluate, arrange and control disappointed employees.
Robbins and Judge (2009) clarify that withdrawal conduct/ destructive conduct is a gathering of exercises to be performed by the worker to disregard the work circumstance. This state of mind may demonstrate the way a staff to leave the organisation. In fact, low job satisfaction falls under above conditions in an organisation. This is generally related to high absenteeism, strikes, work gradualness, and higher turnover. Additionally, low employment satisfaction gives degrade the quality of the product, low performance, disciplinary issues, unhappiness, employees’ burglary, and different challenges. Further, it is observed that higher job satisfaction is generally connected with low absenteeism, low turnover, higher employment levels, and more seasoned workers.
Sinha (2013) has led a study which discovers the five variables influencing job satisfaction are strengthening, co-workers, pay and future opportunities, work assigned and training, and job rotation. Different elements which didn't have numerous effects on worker satisfaction, for example, are welfare course of action, position clarity, and opportunity of basic leadership and recognition at work.
Rahman and Hoque (2014) have led a study which demonstrates that the bank officers' employment satisfaction depends essentially upon pay, supervision, promotion, colleagues, and compensating framework. Further, changes in authoritative variables, for example, pay scale, employee contribution to approach improvement and workplace could be made to include hierarchical responsibility which is turn will prompt worker duty and satisfaction.
Velnampy and Sivesan(2012) contend in the study of Sri-Lanka Bank that ten (10) variables decide job satisfaction, for example, pay scale, work itself, promotion, subordinate-supervisor relationship, heading of supervisor, accomplishment, gratefulness in basic leadership, pleased to work, and clear job description. It has been argued by Sinha (2013) that some particular variables don’t affect much on job satisfaction of workers. These variables are welfare activities, defined role, and participation in making the decision, and acknowledgement at work.
Luthan (1998) agrues that three imperative measurements are used to gauge job satisfaction: (i) JS is an enthusiastic reaction to an occupation circumstance. All things considered, it can't be seen, it must be construed. (ii) JS is normally ascertained by how well outcomes fulfil or exceed wants. For instance, if workers experience that they are performing much harder than co-workers in the department even then they are accepting fewer rewards. In such situation, workers will most likely have opposite thought towards the work, the manager and or co-workers. If workers experience that they are being taken care with extremely well and are being remunerated unbiased, they are probably going to have positive states of mind towards the employment. (iii) JS addresses a few associated states of mind which are the most essential qualities of the job about which workers have the powerful feedback. These to Lutherans are the work assigned, pay scale, opportunities for development, supervision and co-workers.
Gruneberg (1979) has distinguished various individual dissimilarities, for example, age, educational level, and personalities that influence work satisfaction. He remarked that employment satisfaction ordinarily began high, decrease, and then expanded with age. As indicated by Gruneberg (1979) one clarification for this pattern is that people got to be balanced in the employement and living style. Starting strong employment pride declines when occupational wants are not fulfiled, as exceptionally qualified people rapidly get to be dissatisfied with employment that did not empower full usage of their abilities while people who were driven were probably going to be disappointed when the promotion was troublesome or subtle. At that point, as the people changes with the work circumstance, job satisfaction rises once more
Human needs are never fulfilled as clarified byMaslow's Theory of Needs. Human needs generally request for more demand. A motivation hypothesis i.e. the Needs Hierarchy Theory has been developed by Abraham Maslow (1970) is known as one of the best. It clarifies that there are five need levels inside every person. To start with, physical needs i.e. essential needs portray necessities of the requirement for nourishment, water, air, activity, and infection free. Once the fundamental is accomplished, they go for the other level the security. Second, the well-being and soundness imply that a worker may cover for the employer stability, for example, a steady occupation, a great pay, and being dealt with decently. Third, the social level contains the need of being cherished, and sentiment belongings and incorporation in the working spot. When they have the feeling of such emotions will be content with their works. Fourth, there comes another level which is the sense of self or known as status and being trailed by fifth the self-realization is the largest amount.
2.3 Dimensions of Job Satisfaction
Researcher finds several variables from the review of articles/literature on work satisfaction that influences JS as recommended by Herzbergetal (1959), Sinha (2013), Rahman and Hoque (2014), Velnampy and Sivesan (2012) ,Luthan (1998), and Gruneberg (1979).These are pay, work itself, supervision, promotion, colleagues, working conditions, rewards and compensating framework; age, educational level, and personalities;accomplishment, gratefulness in basic leadership, pleased to work, and clear job description; training and job rotation.In this study, researcher proposes to investigate six measurement variables out of above variables and it is suggested by Locke (1976) which contributes fundamentally common to worker's job satisfaction in any type of organisation. These dimensions are Work Assigned, Salary, Promotion, Supervision, Colleagues, and Working Environment.
2.3.1 Work Assigned
It is accepted fact that the work nature considerably affects the level of worker's job satisfaction. It has been argued by Luthans (1992) that workers are satisfied from those works when they feel intriguing and challenging. Ting (1997) argues that the varieties of skills strongly affect work satisfaction. When employees can use the more prominent assortments of attitudes in their employment will determine increasing satisfaction level. Sharma and Bhaskar (1991) claim that if the work assigned has enough diversity, challenging, obligation and extension for applying workers’ own particular aptitudes and capacities, then that employment determines better work achievement. It has been discovered by Choudhary and Khaleque (1984) in the study on the Indian executives, that the assignment features was very crucial element deciding occupation satisfaction for the top executives, and employment stability as the most vital consider work satisfaction for executives at the bottom.
Above arguments show that researchers have given more emphasis on the job to be all the more fascinating, demanding, more obligation, and appropriate to abilities of workers lead to higher satisfaction. This is one of the major elements which influence seriously.
2.3.2 Salary
The pay insists on a staff to give its own time for doing work. Luthans (1998) clarifies that pay rates do help workers to meet more than their fundamental needs. It is likewise a favourable in satisfying the more elevated amount need of employees. Further, Herzberg argues the pay to the "hygiene elements" demonstrating no reasonable view of the connection between's job satisfaction and pay. It has been argued by Locke and Porter that pay is equal or more than demanded by the staffs increase the job satisfaction.
William et al (2006) argues that the real salary and salary received is most likely an element of the disparity of perceived pay scale and the sum that workers trust their compensation ought to be. In the meantime, Lawler (1991) had introduced a point of view that perspectives i.e. satisfaction on pay scale is a disparity between one receives salaries really and actually how much one expects to get salary for a job.
Heneman III and Schwab,(1985) argue that pay scale attends as the capacity of the individual characteristic for workers, is considerable proof and as a layout from the mixes of the different pay scale and advantage. Further, Currall(2005) and Ismail (2012) clarify that salary level additionally relates with an aggregate JP and JS at last organizational performance in three perspectives i.e. (i) the employee salary disappointment indicates diverse worker behavior outcomes;and (ii) a differential employees behavioral result gives a clear aggregate structure that emerges in authoritative practices, standards and attitudes; and (iii) the useful behavioral based on combined attitudes, guidelines and behavior will have impact on job performance and at last organizational execution and its capacities.
2.3.3 Promotion
Iqbal and Rizvi (2012) contend that promotion will give the workers with chances to development in their positions inside the organisation. As it centres systems get headway, development, advancement and achievements. Higgins (1998cited from Norizan Ismail, 2012) says that promotions talk about in regards to opportunities for self-improvement, more obligation, and better economic wellbeing. Another examination study clears up that in most cases, the workers state about their feelings regarding JS expecting that the future professional opportunities for them are splendid. It is clarified as accessibility of chances to self-improvement along with profession advancement with their present livelihood, or upgrade risk of searching the different opportunities in the new organisation. Another side, Bull (2005) argues that employees’ job satisfaction may diminish in the event that they have the less open door for professional success. MaComick and Allen (1985) clarify that worker's satisfaction is likewise related to opportunities for advancement, which would rely on numerous variables i.e. the fairness and the basis of promotion criteria. It is not agreed that all workers would be amused with promotions. The explanation for this is the promotion requests more obligation and more mental exercises, for which a few workers are found not prepared to acknowledge this change. Researchers have stressed that promotion has the positive effect on job satisfaction since it gives future chances to career development.
2.3.4 Supervision
The most study explains that the fruitful relationship between the subordinate and supervisor will have an extensive constructive outcome on the worker's general job satisfaction. Morrow and Reichers (2001) clarify that the warm working associations with chief and colleagues are viewed as one of the vital determinants having the positive impact on worker's conduct and satisfaction. A decent supervision is required to bring work satisfaction. Ting (1997) contends that supervisors’ give workers with organisation and backing in finishing their assignments; they would liable to have work satisfaction at higher levels. Researchers contend that supervision is required to enhance nature of employee’s performance and additionally creating welcoming relationship amongst staff and administrator.
2.3.5 Colleagues

Staudt (1997) says that the social relationship sanctions a critical part of the 'social atmosphere' inside the organisation for better performance. It provides a superior workplace inside which employees can have sentiment character, comfort, participation, and better employment fulfilment.
Once in a while, it is not happy to working with partners then an opposite situation exists. There may come to fruition a negative effect on employment satisfaction. In this manner, Luddy (2005) in his study demonstrates that kinship opportunities are connected with an expansion in job involvement, work satisfaction and organisational obligation, and with an extensive diminishment in turnover.
Analysts contend that a great association with colleagues has an extensive positive impact on job satisfaction and contribute in diminishing turnover. Else, it is hard to work in the organisation.
2.3.6 Working Environment
It is relied upon to be better conditions of the workplace where employees are doing their works. Hyz (2010) contends that the working conditions shall have three objectives: fineness in organisation premises, meeting the client's prerequisites and necessities of employees. Luthans, Moorhead and Griffen (1992) say that working conditions are another component, which has the sensible impact at work satisfaction of employees. Luthans (1998) argues that employees will feel better simpler to work in the well disposed environment and clean premises. In the inverse, they will feel it uncomfortable to finish works. Analysts argue that working conditions have the sensible impact on satisfaction; else, it is troublesome work in the awful workplace.
2.1 Job Performance
Berghe (2011) affirms that job performance is described as to somebody how well do at his or her duty. Further, it is not viewed as that the practices done by employees at work are identified with employment particular viewpoints. Jex (2002) characterises the job performance as "every one of the practices demonstrated when employees drew in at work". In this line of thought, Campbell (1993) has built up a successful model containing eight measurements to quantify job performance as given underneath:
1. Behaviour identified with centre undertakings of the occupation;
2. General work conduct;
3. Written and oral conveying task capability;
4. Level of duty to centre assignments;
5. Maintaining disciplinary issues;
6. Fascinating companion and group execution;
7. Leadership
8. Administration.
This research is proposed to endeavour a study on the association between employment satisfaction and work performance. Olusola, Funmilola and Sola (2013 referred to in p.511-513) contend that it is essential to investigate the effect of components of job satisfaction on job performance to decide their relationships as given underneath.
2.4.1 Work assigned’s effect on job performance
Landy (1989) and Luthans (1998) contend that worker feels satisfied with challenging and fascinating job, which gives him/her with prestige. Along these lines, work assigned considerably affects work performance and satisfaction. Robbins (2003) contends that the major employees will feel joy and satisfaction from works under states of moderate challenging. Rose (2001) argues that employees oblige chances to create in their field of exercises with the goal that they can acknowledge obligations endowed to them.
Researchers contend that job challenging, interesting, and appropriate to attitudes is assigned to an employee shows better performance and responsibility to the organisation.
2.4.2 Salary’s effect on Job Performance
It is noticed that if employees are satisfied by pay scale will execute well. Sajuyigbe and Ojokuku (2009); and Adeyemi and Sajuyigbe, Olaoye (2013) describe that salary is a standout amongst essential elements helps in looking at relations between JS and JP. Likewise, Frye (2004) affirms about finding a actual connection amongst compensation and execution. Analysts contend that pay scale assumes essential part to intrigue and keep ownership of workforce.
2.4.3 Promotion’s effect on job performance
Robbins (2003) contends that promotion contributes self-awareness, opportunities, more obligation, expanded economic wellbeing, and eventually work satisfaction. Along these lines, it has control on job execution. Soeters and Teseema (2006) find a significant correlation among exercises of advancement and workers’ execution. Different scientists agree with the discoveries of Sajuyigbe (2013) that fewer opportunities for professional success may diminish work satisfaction. Analysts contend that promotion assumes imperative part expanding work satisfaction at last better performance.
2.4.4 Supervision’s effect on job performance
Burnetto and Farr-Wharton (2002) contend that the administrative activities and supervision of the workers can expand profitability and enhance their performance. Okpara (2004) deduces in his research work that supervision is a key player in employment satisfaction and execution relations. Ojokuku and Sajuyigbe (2009) additionally find in their study that the subordinates performance and efficiency depend altogether on the administrative part and supervision for the workers. Researchers contend that specialised direction gives backing to expand nature of performance.
2.4.5 Colleagues' effect on job performance
Mowday and Sutton (1993) contend that worker's chances for communication with co-workers in a working environment enhance work satisfaction ultimately better execution. It has been clarified by Whartonand Baron (1991) that the better association with partners adds to the employment satisfaction and improving performance level. The poor associations with partners will diminish work satisfaction and execution level. Luddy (2005) contends that kinship opportunities are connected with the positive effect on occupation satisfaction, work performance and authoritative responsibility, and at last turnover diminish essentially. Analysts contend that associations with partners give better satisfaction and better performance.
2.4.6 Working environment’s effect on job performance
Hyz (2010) argues that the working conditions have three goals: fineness in organisational premises, address prerequisites of clients and the requirements of employees. Spector (2008) contends that workplace is the critical element of worker's occupation satisfaction and performance. Reiner and Zhao (1999) and Carlan (2007) have demonstrated that working conditions are additionally observed to be a superior component to job satisfaction and performance.Scientists contend that well-organized workplace improves performance.
2.2 Relationship between Job Satisfaction and Job Performance
The previous studies reveal that JS is a key player in analysing work performance. Dessler (2010) contends that the satisfied workers performing profoundly will be fit for helping the organisation to execute its vital objectives for competitive advantages. Generally, the managers know the part of job satisfaction in enhancing performance in the organisation. In this manner, the managers endeavour to contract and hold the satisfied workers for some vital positions. Hamdan (2011), Petty (1984) and Organ (1977) argue that their past studies demonstrated a huge association between employment satisfaction and work performance. Moreover, these studies have established that fulfilled workers give better performance in comparison to others. Subsequently, worker's happiness has a tendency to provide quality products or services for their clients. Underneath writing, audit legitimises above articulation.
Pugnoand & Depedri (2009) has embraced a study on JS and JP and find a positive correlation between them. There is likewise noticed that financial incentives may not be the primary inspiration component for employment performance, and a few cases, they are even counter productive. Notwithstanding applying motivators and controls for enhancing employee’s performance, the organisation can hence propose other all the more well-disposed practices.
Qasim, Cheema, and Syed (2012) have done a research on the subject of Investigating Elements Influencing Worker’s Satisfaction at the job. It reasons that the organisation needs administration effectiveness with a specific end goal to accomplish competitive advantages and adjust to the dramatic evolving environment. This can be accomplished by expanding satisfaction of worker at last work execution in the organisation.
Pushpakumri (2008) has considered on The Effect of JS on Job Performance. Fulfilled employees are discovered more provoke to work, meeting the scheduled focuses on time, productive, mistake and omission-free, genuineness and devotion to the organisation, less dependable, new thoughts advance, tremendously interested in enhancing information, tolerating more obligation, entirely take after tenets and controls, less absent and low turnover. The above uplifting states of mind of satisfied worker expand the nature of his/her performance compelling and effective.
Maroofi and Deghani (2013) have investigated the impacts of employment satisfaction on the performance of an employee and organisational commitment connection. The study contends that job satisfaction legitimises the correlation between organisational commitment and execution. This examination gives chiefly to direct impacts played by the hygiene and motivation variables in the organizational commitment and work execution.
Skibba (2002) has driven a research on areas relating to the psychology of an organisation. He affirms that the subject of a correlation between employment satisfaction and occupation execution is known as one of the imperative research areas. Hawthrone considers showing that since 1939, research on associating work satisfaction with performance and another point of view has been examined. Skibba (2002) affirms that this relationship lies under a hypothesis of the equal model. Under this hypothesis, the satisfaction guides to performance under extrinsic satisfaction and the performance guide to satisfaction under the intrinsic satisfaction
Scientists contend that there are noteworthy relations between job satisfaction and job performance considering taking after certainties: satisfied worker performs superior to anything unsatisfied staff; satisfied one keeps up all qualities required for fabulousness execution and responsibility to an organisation. The study demonstrates that six principle components of job satisfaction have the extensive positive impact on JP. It legitimises that JS has a solid association with job performance.
2.3 Performance Appraisal System
Clearly, development of any organisation relies on upon a compelling and proficient workforce. It is just possible if the organisation practises in making stable workforce development strategy. For this, Kithuku (2012, referred to p10-13) proposes that the regular performance appraisal is required to recognise key boundaries in assistance to work practice and to distinguish proficient advancement needs and opportunities for development of the workforce.
Roberts (2002) affirms that the execution evaluation frameworks or performance appraisals system help institutions/organisations to reward and baking their best-skilled workers.An organised performance appraisal system (PAS) passes on important criticism in a valuable organisation and refocuses employees performing below standard and to encourage profession improvement gets ready for all workers. The PAS expand the reasonableness and straightforwardness of the assessment procedure and aid people and bosses towards focused on change methodologies. In fact, PAS can be altered to cover the fundamental worker aspirations according to organisational nature.
Fletcher(1984) contends that the best performance evaluation comprises of (i) consolidating execution assessment into an arrangement of setting the formal objective (ii) constructing assessments with respect to the present and right set of working responsibilities and (iii) sufficiently giving help and backing to employees to enhance performance. Appraisals need direct experience and satisfactory learning of the staff execution. It is required to direct evaluations and appraisers consider them more important and give the essential considerations required to enhance the nature of work done in the organisation.
Taking into account performance evaluations reports, different exercises are required to attempt for enhancing the performance of employees, for example, rewards, on-job training, short classes and group building workshops as projects that enhance the worker performance fundamentally.
Analysts contend that organisation needs to set up the performance appraisals system which supports the organisation for such exercises i.e. procedure for a compelling workforce advancement; distinguishing proof of expert improvement needs and opportunities; altering rewards(financial or non-budgetary) to drive workers; use work training; refocusing employees performing below standard etc. The researchers demonstrate that a performance evaluation has most elevated positive impact on performance and high positive impact on job satisfaction.
