Journal Title: IOSR journal of Business and Management - Year 2018, Vol 20, Issue 6
Abstract
In the early 2000, the fast food culture in Bangladesh took a profound turn with the commencement of the first international fast food franchise. Since then, Dhaka has experienced a remarkable growth in the number of international fast food chains. An observation on the noticeable number of part-time employees working in the international franchises became the basis for this particular study. With the aim to investigate the influence work environment factors have on part-time employee satisfaction an exploratory research was conducted. A total number of 147 part-time employees from 19 outlets of 10 international fast food chains operating in Dhaka were surveyed with a structured questionnaire. All quantitative data were then encoded using SPSS for descriptive analysis and the qualitative data was used in support. The study confirmed work environment factors like work flexibility, pay, workplace behavior were important to influence employee satisfaction, but the nature of part-time employees not being devoted enough must also be taken into consideration. The study can be further examined using correlation and regression analysis of the factors identified.
