| dc.description.abstract | The study sought to determine the relationship between personal data, attitudes, and financial factors and job sa tisfaction. It was conducted in ETHIOPIAN INSURANCE CORPORATION. A 28. 1 per cent sample (n = 331) was selected by proportionate stratified random sampling method from seven departments of the corporation. The data regarding the dependent and independent factors were collected by questionnaire from the employees, and from documents (that was substantiated by interviews). The total score on six items formed a criterion which was acceptable at least from the stand point of dispersion and reliability. The qualitative data collected by the questionnaire were converted into five-point scale. Statistical analysis included computation of correlation matrix, multiple regression analysis, (R adif , and F-values between and within dependent and independent variables. The finding of the study revealed that from all the predictor variables only five had a statistically significant relationship with the criterion measure. Among these predictor variables four-recognition, participation in decision making, age, and responsibility were positively related while one- co-workers was negatively related to the criterion. Although some of the predictor variables have s tatistically significant relationship with the criterion measure, the degree of association was not substantial in each case. Based on the finding, it was concluded that the recognition that employees receive from their corporation, opportunity to make-decision, age, responsibility and relationship with co-workers appeared to be slightly better predictors of job satisfaction than other factors. The results of the study have been interpreted and compared with those of other studies reported in the literature. The study has several implications for personnel management of the corporation. On the basis of the finding obtained in the study it was recommended that the problem has to be further researched in different organizations and/ or institutions for validating the findings and the instrument developed. | en_US |
