Étude longitudinale du lien entre la satisfaction intrinsèque et la satisfaction extrinsèque au travail et l’intention de quitter chez les travailleurs du secteur des TICParent, Céline 01 1900 (has links)
Le but de ce mémoire est de comprendre l’influence de la satisfaction intrinsèque et de la satisfaction extrinsèque sur l’intention de quitter des travailleurs. Afin d’étudier ce sujet, nous avons formulé trois hypothèses basées sur la théorie des attentes et la théorie des deux facteurs d’Herzberg. La première hypothèse stipule que la satisfaction intrinsèque fait diminuer l’intention de quitter des travailleurs. La seconde hypothèse est formulée à l’effet que la satisfaction extrinsèque fait diminuer l’intention de quitter des travailleurs.
La dernière hypothèse stipule que la satisfaction intrinsèque a une influence plus
importante sur l’intention de quitter des travailleurs que la satisfaction extrinsèque.
Les données utilisées afin de tester nos hypothèses de recherche ont été collectées dans le cadre d’une étude plus vaste portant sur « les liens entre la rémunération, la formation et le développement des compétences et l’attraction et la rétention d’employés clés ».
L’entreprise au sein de laquelle les données ont été collectées est dans le domaine des
technologies de l’information et des communications (TIC) à Montréal. Les employés
interrogés sont les nouveaux employés embauchés par l’entreprise. Les résultats de notre mémoire confirment deux de nos hypothèses. Ainsi, nos résultats
ont démontré que la satisfaction intrinsèque fait diminuer l’intention de quitter des
travailleurs d’ici six mois, un an et deux ans. De plus, nos résultats ont démontré que la satisfaction intrinsèque a une influence plus importante sur l’intention de quitter que la satisfaction extrinsèque. Par contre, une de nos hypothèses est partiellement confirmée. En effet, nos résultats ont démontré que la satisfaction extrinsèque fait seulement diminuer l’intention de quitter d’ici un an et deux ans et n’a aucune influence significative sur l’intention de quitter d’ici six mois. Le soutien organisationnel perçu est
une variable qui a également une forte influence sur l’intention de quitter des travailleurs.
Pour terminer, la conclusion de ce mémoire présente en quoi nos résultats peuvent être
utiles aux gestionnaires des ressources humaines et des relations industrielles. / The purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of intrinsic and extrinsic satisfaction on
workers’ intention to quit. In order to investigate this subject, we have formulated three
hypotheses based on the theory of expectations and two-factor theory. The first
hypothesis states that intrinsic satisfaction decreases worker’s intention to quit. The
second hypothesis stipulates that extrinsic satisfaction decreases worker’s intention to
quit. The last hypothesis states that intrinsic satisfaction has a stronger influence on
worker’s intention to quit than extrinsic satisfaction.
In order to test our hypotheses, we used data collected in a larger study on “ the links
between compensation, training and skills development attracting and retaining key
employees “. The data were collected in an organization in information technology and
telecommunications sector located in Montreal. Newly hired employees were invited to
answer the survey.
The results of our study confirm two hypotheses. Indeed, our results indicate that intrinsic
satisfaction decreases worker’s intention to quit within six months, one year and two
years. Moreover, our results show that intrinsic satisfaction has more influence on
intention to quit than extrinsic satisfaction. However, our results indicate that extrinsic
satisfaction decreases only intention to quit within one year and two years and has no
significant influence on intention to quit within six months. Perceived organizational
support also has an important influence on worker’s intention to quit.
Finally, the conclusion of this study presents how our results can be interesting for human
resources and industrial relations managers.

A method on how to improve employee job satisfaction: A case study / En metod för att förbättra arbetstillfredsställelse: En fallstudieJohansson, Malin January 2010 (has links)
<p>The value of specific individuals for the success of a company has increased drastically because of the increased demand on knowledge and service orientation, and job satisfaction has become more important in the competition of the most attractive employees. Improving job satisfaction also brings along additional advantages. For example, it has been proven to have a direct impact on customer satisfaction. This study aims at providing a working procedure for organizations that wish to increase the level of employee job satisfaction, and a method has been developed that gives practical instructions on how to organize the improvement work. To evaluate the current level of job satisfaction in order to find improvement areas, the most important determinants to job satisfaction have been identified through a literature survey. The method has four phases, Prepare, Investigate, Design and Implement, and is shaped as a closed loop to symbolize the need of continuous improvements. To validate the usefulness and precision of the method, it has been tested in a single case study. The case study showed that the method is applicable in the sense that all four phases were possible to carry out, and that it is capable of providing a practical working procedure to increase job satisfaction. It is also useful when it comes to evaluating already existing working procedures. Most important when it comes to increasing job satisfaction is to let the employees actively participate in the improvement work. This will ensure that the solutions suggested are relevant and enduring, and it will make employees feel acknowledged and motivated to follow out the changes.</p>

An evaluation of job satisfaction among salespersons in a small department store using four psychological measures.Webb, Ruth Sherrill 05 1900 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to examine the potential of three independent psychological scales (Rotter's Locus of Control, Karasek's Job Content Questionnaire [non-injury job stress], and Rosenberg's Self-Esteem Scale) to predict job satisfaction, as measured by Brayfield and Rothe's Index of Job Satisfaction, among salespersons in a small independent department store in Wichita Falls, Texas. An 82-item survey which examined the dynamics of a salesperson's work life was administered to 20 individuals who were full-time employees of the department store. Demographic data were also gathered although these factors were not entered into the regression analysis. A multiple regression procedure examined the responses of the 20 employees who participated in the study. The R-squared coefficient indicates that 41 percent of the variance in Job Satisfaction was explained by the three predictor measures. A major proportion of this unexplained variance may be in variables outside the scope of this study, e.g., salaries, vacation time, benefits, bonuses, or commissions. Results suggest that the independent variables measured by the Locus of Control Scale and the Job Content Questionnaire in combination were the best predictors of job satisfaction with a significance level of .01. The single best predictor was the Job Content Questionnaire, significant at .03. The three instruments (Locus of Control, Self-Esteem, and Job Content Questionnaire) which comprised the independent variables, reached a significance level of .03 in their prediction of job satisfaction (Brayfield-Rothe Index of Job Satisfaction). Study results indicate that a majority of the employees in the sample population were satisfied with their jobs and with the leadership style manifested by the store manager. In addition, job security was believed to be satisfactory. Inasmuch as there is a void in the literature regarding personal characteristics of salespersons as variables that interact with job satisfaction, comparisons of the findings of this research with other studies that have explored the intricacies of job satisfaction among salespersons who work in small, independent department stores cannot be made. Further research on the predictability of job satisfaction among salespersons in small, independent retail operations such as the department store investigated in this study would be useful not only to managerial staff in decision making and personnel management but would promote greater understanding of the personal characteristics of salespersons as human investment capital which has the potential to create the effective competitive edge required for survival in the new economy.

Sexual and relationship satisfaction associated with shifts in dyadic trajectories of depressive symptoms in German couples across four years.Morgan, Preston Christopher January 1900 (has links)
Master of Science / School of Family Studies and Human Services / Jared A. Durtschi / Depression is a pervasive mental health concern; thus, it is important to identify modifiable risk factors associated with reducing depressive symptoms across time. Using 1,946 married and cohabiting German couples assessed annually across 4 years from the Panel Analysis of Intimate Relationships and Family Dynamics (Pairfam) study, we tested if shifts across time in sexual satisfaction and relationship satisfaction were linked with expected shifts in trajectories of depressive symptoms using dyadic time-varying covariate growth models. For both men and women, higher sexual and relationship satisfaction scores across time were significantly associated with decreasing their own depressive symptom trajectories across time, but only relationship satisfaction was linked with a shift in their partners’ trajectories of depressive symptoms. Potential clinical implications from these results include the treatment of depressive symptoms by making changes across time in their own relationship satisfaction and sexual satisfaction.

Job Satisfaction and Group Turnover Rate: A Correlational AnalysisMcCown, James G. 08 1900 (has links)
A job satisfaction questionnaire measuring satisfaction with various job aspects was administered to 458 male equipment operators in 30 district offices of a North Texas based petroleum services company to determine whether mean district scores on any of nine sub-scales developed through factor analysis or on the composite overall satisfaction scale were predictive of subsequent district turnover rate. Eight of the nine sub-scales were correlated with district turnover rate at the .05 level or better. Overall satisfaction was also significantly related to district turnover rate (r = .57, p < .001). It was concluded that the instrument is a valid indicator of subsequent employee turnover rate in the population studied. However, a cross-validation was suggested to determine whether the relationships can be generalized to other populations.
