Job satisfaction

Job satisfaction refers to an employee’s general attitude toward his or her job. Although job satisfaction is an attitude rather than a behavior, it’s an outcome that concerns many managers because satisfied employees are more likely than dissatisfied employees to show up for work, have higher levels of performance, and stay with an organization.


Job Satisfaction attitudes held by individuals about their jobs.
