| Abstract: |
In the modern era, entrepreneurs in all industries want to recruit, select,
train and motivate able employees who want to serve customers well. However,
majority of industries in general and hospitality industry in particular are
confronting numerous challenges with regard to their employees. The main issue
before entrepreneurs here is about enrichment of satisfaction levels of their
workers from different job related aspects. When workers will be satisfied,
they will definitively do their duty of serving customers well. With this
viewpoint, the paperexplores the level of job satisfaction of hotel workers on
various dimensions. A questionnaire was designed and administered on a sample
of 150 hotel workers, taken from Ambala District in the State of Haryana.
Analysis was conducted using frequencies and proportional analysis.
Inferential statistics of Chi-square and z-test (for significant/insignificant
difference between two population proportions) were also utilized.Results
demonstrated a moderate level of satisfaction among the workers. Workers were
mainly found dissatisfied from the behaviour of supervisor, salary,
promotional opportunities, internal policies and organizational management.
However, majority of sample workers were noticed as satisfied from their job,
behaviour of their co-workers and customers. Further, behaviour of supervisor
is found as a dimension on which satisfied and dissatisfied workers are found
approximately equal in number. Accordingly, the paper calls for enhancement in
the level of satisfaction of hotel workers, mainly on the dimensions on which
they are found dissatisfied, if entrepreneurs want to win over competitors and
customers in the market. Key Words: Job satisfaction, Entrepreneurs, Hotel
