dc.description.abstract | The main objective of this study was to examine the effect of job characteristics on performance of employee’s with mediating role of motivation at DBE. To achieve its objectives, the study employed explanatory research design to examine the relationship between dependent, mediating and independent variable of the study. Quantitative research approach was also used in order to analyze the collected data from the respondents with the help of statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) version 26. The data has been collected through questionnaires, by using stratified random sampling technique. Accordingly, by using statistical tools like mean, correlation and multiple linear regressions the required analysis has been made in order to identify the possible effect of job characteristics on employee’s performance and to test mediation effect of employee motivation. The finding of the study reveals that all studied job characteristics dimensions have a positive and significant effect on employee’s performance and motivation has partially mediated the relationship. The levels of existence or degree of occurrence of all job characteristics dimensions in the bank were moderate. This implies that the job design in DBE has moderately incorporated the suggested job dimensions. Therefore, DBE shall improve its job design in order be productive and take labour competitive advantage from banking industry. | en_US |
