Impact of job satisfaction on employee’s job performance in Hotel Industry

Many managers subscribe to the belief that a satisfied worker is necessarily good worker. In other words, if management of hotel industry could keep the entire worker's happy", good performance would automatically fallow. There are two propositions concerning the satisfaction performance relationship. The first proposition, which is based on traditional view, is that satisfaction is the effect rather than the cause of performance. This proposition says that efforts in a job lead to rewards, which results in a certain level of satisfaction.

If the job satisfaction level of an employee is high of course its job performance level will also high. It has direct relation between job satisfaction and job performance.

What Job satisfaction people need? Each employee wants:

1. Recognition as an individual

2. Meaningful task

3. An opportunity to do something worthwhile.

4. Job security for himself and his family

5. Good wages

6. Adequate benefits

7. Opportunity to advance

8. No arbitrary action- a voice a matters affecting him

9. Satisfactory working conditions

10. Competence leadership- bosses whom he can admire and respect as persons and as bosses.

. The result of high job satisfaction is increased commitment to the organization, which may or may not result in better performance. A wide range of factors affects an individual's level of satisfaction. While organizational rewards can and do have an impact, job satisfaction is primarily determine by factors that are usually not directly controlled by the organization. a high level of job satisfaction lead to organizational commitment, while a low level, or dissatisfaction, result in a behavior detrimental to the organization.
