An Investigation into the Importance of Job Satisfaction within Multi-National Companies (2012)

Employee Job Satisfaction Dissertation– The purpose of choosing this topic is to analyze the importance of job satisfaction in Multi National Companies (MNCs). The reason to go for MNCs is the increase in the shift over of the employees for future growth. The shifting, thus, includes the satisfaction in the given job role. Through my research, I will analyze the causes and effect relationship between the employee and the factors behind job satisfaction in a given MNC.

Job satisfaction is one of most important fields of study in the subject of human resource management. This important role of job satisfaction function leads the way in assuring high level of job satisfaction among the employees. Job satisfaction function of any HR vertical of an organisation is primarily responsible for productivity of employees and the employee turnover.

Since these two aspects can make or break the organisations performance in all areas, it requires attention from top management. Job satisfaction function generally is part of the HR vertical with a clear mandate of motivating employee and continuously striving for higher employee job satisfaction through introduction of new policies and frameworks. The topic forms an integral part of organisational effectiveness and that has instigated me to choose this topic of job satisfaction.
