Chapter I Introduction
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Job Satisfaction is the favorableness or un-favorableness with which the employee views his work. It expresses the amount of agreement between ones expectation of the job and the rewards that the job provides. Job Satisfaction is a part of life satisfaction. The nature of ones environment of job is an important part of lifes Job Satisfaction influences ones general life satisfaction.

Job Satisfaction, thus, is the result of various attitudes possessed by an employee. In a narrow sense, these attitudes are related to the job under condition with such specific factors such as wages. Supervisors of employment, conditions of work, social relation on the job, prompt settlement of grievances and fair treatment by employer.

However, more comprehensive approach requires that many factors are to be included before a complete understanding of job satisfaction can be obtained. Such factors as employees age, health temperature, desire and level of aspiration should be considered. Further his family relationship, Social status, recreational outlets, activity in the organizations etc. Contribute ultimately to job satisfaction

Definitions of job satisfaction

There are a plethora of definitions of job satisfaction, some of which are contradictory in nature. Specter (1997) refers to job satisfaction in terms of how people feel about their jobs and different aspects of their jobs. Ellickson and Logsdon (2002) support this view by defining job satisfaction as the extent to which employees like their work. Schermerhorn (1993) defines job satisfaction as an affective or emotional response towards various aspects of an employees work. The author emphasizes that likely causes of job satisfaction include status, supervision, co-worker relationships, job content, remuneration and extrinsic rewards, promotion and physical conditions of the work environment, as well as organizational structure. Similarly, Mc Namarari (n.d.) points out that job satisfaction refers to an individuals feeling or state of mind giving heed to the nature of the individuals work. The author further explains that job satisfaction can be influenced by a diversity of job dimensions, inter alia, the quality of the employees relationship with their Supervisor, the status of the physical environment in which the individual works, Degree of full filament in work.

In direct contrast, Rue and Byers (1992) refer to job satisfaction as an individuals mental state about the job. Robbins et al. (2003) add that an individual with high job satisfaction will display a positive attitude towards their job, and the individual who is dissatisfied will have a negative attitude about the job. This definition is expanded by Greenberg and Baron (1995) who define job satisfaction as an individuals cognitive, affective and evaluative reactions toward their jobs. According to Coster (1992 cited in Sempane, Rieger & Roodt, 2002), the work Sempane et al., 2002) conclude job satisfaction is an individuals personal assessment of conditions prevalent in the job, thus evaluation occurs on the basis of factors, which they regard as important to them.

Determinants of Job Satisfaction:

There are various personal and organizational factors that influence job satisfaction. The age of a person does have its influence on his level of job satisfaction. People that are young usually have higher level of job satisfaction provided they rightly choose their career. Those in their twenties or thirties are energetic and have the stamina to work hard and derive pleasure out of their work. As a person gets older, he gets tired physically and mentally. Further, he reaches the saturation point at this stage and the work, usually, does not give him the pleasure it gave earlier.

2.1 Company profile
Malabar Cements Ltd., a fully owned Govt. of Kerala Undertaking, is synonymous with superior quality cements, vouched by customers spread

across the state of Kerala. The Company was incorporated in April 1978 and commenced production in April 1984 at its Walayar plant. At Malabar Cements, product improvement is not just a one-time strategy for boosting sales, rather a quest of excellence. Perfecting the product quality is everybody's concern here. Our distinction begins with scientifically selecting the best raw materials for clinker. Stringent quality control is exercised right from pre-blending raw materials, linearization, clinker grinding, and finally to cement packing. Malabar Cements contributes to the developmental activities of the State by supplying the basic construction material. Only Malabar Cements can supply its cement, 'factory fresh', without any deterioration in the original strength either due to moisture or humidity, within 12 hrs anywhere in Kerala. With a production capacity of 4.2 lakh tons of cement perineum, the unit at Walayar is the largest. As part of expansion programmed, it has commissioned a 2.0 lakh tons clinker-grinding unit at Chartable in Alappuzha district in August 2003. Thus the total installed capacity of MCL is 6.2 lakh tons. MCL is the first public sector company to receive ISO Certification & to win the National Award for best achievement in Energy Conservation. Till date, MCL has experienced no loss of production due to labor unrest. In just over 15 years of commissioning, Malabar Cements has been able to meet about 10% of total cement consumption in Kerala. With the expansion plans in progress, the figures are sure to rise further.

History
Cement is a necessary constituent of infrastructure development and a key raw material for the construction industry. As late as the 70s, the State of Kerala was virtually starving for cement. The state lacked a Portland cement factory in either private or government Sector. In 1961-

62, the Geological Survey of India located a limestone deposit in the Pandered valley of the Walayar region on the northern side of the Palakkad gap. Located in dense forest area, the hilly terrain was required heavy investment to mine. The State Govt. ventured to put up a cement factory in the region The feasibility study conducted revealed that the construction of a 1200 tad dry process cement plant using the Pandered limestone is feasible. KSIDC obtained an Industrial License for the manufacture of cement in November 1976 and decided to go ahead with the project and formed Malabar Cements Limited to set up, own and operate the proposed cement plant. The plant was successfully commissioned in 1984 and the commercial cementationstartedon1984 Now, The Company is all equipped to set precedence among public sector units in the state. The launch of two Superior quality products under the brand name Malabar Super and Malabar Classic, in the year 1994-95 gave a boost to the market presence. Various modifications carried out since 1995 have improved production and productivity of Malabar Cements. A 2.5 MW multi-fuel power plant was commissioned in June 1998 to complement 25% of the total power requirement for the Walayar plant operations. As part of expansion, the company has commissioned a 600 tpd Grinding Unit at Cherthala in August 2003. The modernization of Cement Mill, completed in December 2004, helped to increase the cement production

1. Malabar Super
A fabulous product in every sense: Super in strength, Wonderful in workability, Incredible in aging, Implausible in durability and Fantastic in strength gain an amazing performer Tests carried out by Bureau of Indian Standards have established unshakeable credentials of Malabar Super. Super strength accelerates setting time and fine finish. Malabar super is superior in strength to ordinary '43' grade cement. It attains the 28 days' strength required as per IS in just 7 days time. Not only that, the strength attained in 28 days time is about 50 percent more than the IS sp ecification. The amazing strength of Malabar Super arises from its unequalled particle fineness, 33 percent more than the IS specification and consistency in composition, made so by computerized process control system. 2. Malabar Classic Superior in its class of cements, it offers better setting properties delayed initial set and early final set offering more working time and reduced observation time. Structures achieve excellent dimensional stability with the heat resistant properties of MALABAR CLASSIC. It also reduces heat generation during hydration, making it a better workable finished product absolutely reliable. The extra fineness welded into it allows MALABAR CLASSIC

better coverage and finish in wall and roof plastering this in turn, reduces paint consumption. 3. Malabar Aiswarya Brings prosperity in many ways. It increases the life of your structures by safeguarding against soleplate Attack. Aiswarya offers high quality at reduced price. Aiswarya generates less heat of hydration, reduces the formation of getting cracks. This product is best studied for constructions in soil and water with excess alkali metals, sulphates, alumina, iron and acidic waters.

3.1 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

Depending on the nature of the study, the researcher has followed survey method based on random sampling method. Research methodology is the science of studying how is done scientifically and in

systematic manner. Research can be defined as systematic and purposing the Cause and effect relationship between two or more phenomenon.

3.2 RESEARCH
Research in common parlance refers to a search for knowledge. In fact, research is an art of scientific investigation. The Advanced Learners dictionary of current English lays down the meaning of research as a careful investigation or inquiry especially through search for new facts in any branch of knowledge. Redman and Mary define research as a systemized effort to Gain new knowledge. Research is an academic activity and as such the term should be used in a technical sense. According to Clifford Woody research comprises defining and redefining problems, formulating hypothesis or suggested solutions ;collecting,organizing,evaluatin data; making

deductions and reaching conclusions to determine whether they fit the formulating hypothesis.D.Slesinger and M Stephenson in the encyclopedia of social sciences define research as the manipulation of things, concepts or symbols for the purpose of generalizing to extend, correct or verify knowledge, whether that knowledge aids in construction of theory or in the practice of an art.

3.3 DATA COLLECTION

The task of data collection begins after the research problem has been defined and research design chalked out. While deciding the method of data collection to be used for the study, the researcher should keep in mind two types of data viz. Primary and secondary data. Primary Data:

The primary data are those, which are collected afresh and for the first time and thus happen to be original in character. The primary data were collected through well-designed and structured questionnaires based on the objectives. Secondary Data: The secondary data are those, which have already been collected by someone else and passed through statistical process. The secondary data required of the research was collected through various newspapers, and Internet etc. Pilot survey: Pilot survey was conducted with the employees of the organization is helped the researcher to have incite to the strength and weakness of questionnaires. The resold pilot survey suggestion obtained from experience employees uncertain changes were made the questionnaires pilot survey also enable the researcher would take time and administrator the questionnaires.
