GENDER DIFFERENCES IN THE CASE OF WORK SATISFACTION AND MOTIVATION

Journal Title: Polish Journal of Management Studies - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 1

Abstract

The aim of the article is to point out the gender differences in the assessment of the selected variables in terms of work “satisfaction“ and “motivation – lack of motivation“ among employees. The research made use of the material obtained from primary sources. The primary sources were data collected from questionnaires filled out by the inhabitants of Slovakia. The sample consisted of SMEs' employees. Using the method of random sampling we have identified 442 SMEs. Within this group we have reached out to a total of 665 employees. The research sample included 136 respondents. The research sample consisted of employees of various organizations, like those working in the manufacturing sector, commerce, services, administration and other not specified fields. The results point to the fact that the women’s job satisfaction, in contrast to men, significantly affects the recognition of the superior. In the case of work motivation – the demotivation of women is significantly influenced by the fear of losing the workplace and also by the unfair behavior of the superior.<br/><br/>
