INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
It creates a contended labor force which in turn enhances productivity and loyalty the concept has been
evolves through generations.
DEFINITION:
Job satisfaction or employee satisfaction is a measure of workers' contentedness with their job, whether
they like the job or individual aspects or facets of jobs, such as nature of work or supervision. Job satisfaction
can be measured in cognitive (evaluative), affective (or emotional), and behavioral components. Researchers
have also noted that job satisfaction measures vary in the extent to which they measure feelings about the
job (affective job satisfaction) or cognitions about the job (cognitive job satisfaction).
One of the most widely used definitions in organizational research is that of Edwin A. Locke (1976), who
defines job satisfaction as "a pleasurable or positive emotional state resulting from the appraisal of one's job
or job experiences" (p. 1304). Others have defined it as simply how content an individual is with his or her
job; whether he or she likes the job.
It is assessed at both the global level (whether the individual is satisfied with the job overall), or at the facet
level (whether the individual is satisfied with different aspects of the job). Spector (1997 lists 14 common
facets: appreciation, communication, co-workers, fringe benefits, Job conditions, nature of the work,
organization, personal growth, policies and procedures, promotion opportunities, recognition, security, and
supervision.
MEANING:
Job satisfaction is defined as the level of contentment employees feel with their job. This goes beyond their
daily duties to cover satisfaction with team members/managers, satisfaction with organizational policies,
and the impact of their job on employees’ personal lives.

It is a general attitude which is the result of many specific attitudes on three areas, namely job factors,
individual characteristics and group relationships outside the job, job satisfaction is designed as a plausible
(or) positive emotional state resulting from the appraisal of one’s job (or) job experience. This definition
gives importance to the state of mind of workers.
EVOLUTION:
It has been a subject of great interest to researcher, academics and managers for several decades now.
Systematic studies began only in 1430s, prior to that F.W.Taylor the father of scientific management was
also concerned with employees attitude and their influence on performance.
F.W. Taylor
He was the one who considered man as mortal being and wanted mental revolution through satisfaction of
job.
• In 1920s the how throne studies conducted by Elton may and his colleagues, marked an entirely different
approach to the subject of satisfaction. • Report stop cock (1935) published the first major study on job
satisfaction.
• He sound multiplicity factors like fatigue, monotony working conditions, supervision and ceiling of
achievements contributed to JS, either + or.
The Studies of Herzberg, mouser & Sideman (1959) marked yet another milestone in the field of Job
satisfaction studies.

THEORIES:
Here the emphasis was on physical arrangements of satisfaction. F.W. Taylor oriented his research in
this approach.
This school stressed the importance of informal work groups, employee centered supervisor styles and
practices as well as feelings & emotions of individuals in determining role satisfaction.
This school tells the nature of work was the primary source of Job satisfaction.

IMPORTANCE OF JOB SATISFACTION:
Employee satisfaction is of utmost importance for employees to remain happy and also deliver their level
best. Satisfied employees are the ones who are extremely loyal towards their organization and stick to it
even in the worst scenario.
• The first benefit of employee satisfaction is that individuals hardly think of leaving
their current jobs.
• Employee satisfaction is essential to ensure higher revenues for the organization.
• Satisfied employees tend to adjust more and handle pressure with ease as compared
to frustrated ones.
Job satisfaction has many benefits to an organization. Some of the most notable are:
HR costs.
Employee Productivity.

DISADVANTAGES OF JOB SATISFACTION:
The following are a few top disadvantages of job satisfaction at the workplace. They are
Though having job satisfaction is vital in order to help you have a happy professional life, one of the chief
limitations of job satisfaction is that you are so content with what you do, that you will eventually refuse
to leave your comfort zone.
You will begin to accept only those tasks which you have been doing since you joined the company and you
will not be willing to try your hand at something new.
As opposed to this, people who have low job satisfaction constantly want to try their hand at something
new; in the event of trying to find something they like doing.
People who have immense job satisfaction will never be willing to challenge themselves with a daunting
task.
This is because they are afraid that if they challenge themselves then the job will not remain as satisfying as
it was.
This having been stated, job satisfaction does not mean that you only take on tasks which are easy for you
and which you are used to doing, on the contrary, job satisfaction means that you do your job irrespective
of the challenges which are thrown your way, as you know these challenges will only help you better
yourself.

1.2 ABOUT THE INDUSTRY
History
The electric power industry began in the 19th century, which led to the development of inventions
such as gramaphones, radio transmitters, receivers and television. The vacuum tube was used for early
electronic devices, before later being largely supplanted by semiconductor components as the fundamental
technology of the industry.
The first working transistor, a point-contact transistor, was invented by John Bardeen and Walter Houser
Brattain at Bell Laboratories in 1947, which led to significant research in the field of solid- state
semiconductors during the 1950s. This led to the emergence of the home entertainment consumer electronics
industry starting in the 1950s, largely due to the efforts of Tokyo Tsushin Kogyo (now Sony) in successfully
commercializing transistor technology for a mass market, with affordable transistor radios and then
transistorized television sets.
The most widely manufactured electronic device is the metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor
(MOSFET), invented by Mohamed M. Atalla and DawonKahng at Bell Laboratories in 1959. It is the
"workhorse" of the electronics industry, with MOSFET scaling and miniaturization being the primary
reason for the rapid exponential growth of electronic semiconductor technology since the 1960s. The
MOSFET, which accounts for 99.9% of all transistors, is the most widely manufactured device in history,
with an estimated total of 13 sextillion (1.3 × 1022) MOSFETs having been manufactured between 1960 and
2018.[8] The industry employs large numbers of electronics engineers and electronics technicians to design,
develop, test, manufacture, install, and repair electrical and electronic equipment such as communication
equipment, medical monitoring devices, navigational equipment, and computers. Common parts
manufactured are connectors, system components, cell systems, computer accessories, and these are made
of alloy steel, copper, brass, stainless steel, plastic, steel tubing and other materials.
8
PROGRESS OF THE INDUSTRY:
The Indian electronics industry saw growth in the early years of the 21st century, encouraged both
by government policies and incentives and by international investment. Its key and most resource-intensive
segment, the semiconductor industry benefitted from domestic demand growing briskly. Semiconductors
were required by a large number of industries, including telecommunications, information technology,
industrial machinery and automation, medical electronics, automobile, engineering, power and solar
photovoltaic, defence and aerospace, consumer electronics, and appliances. As of 2015, however, the skill
gap in Indian industry threatened progress, with 65 to 70 per cent of the market relying on imports.
PRESENT STATUS
The electronics industry has seen sweeping changes over the last two decades. These have primarily
been in the product domain (across technologies, formats and design), the evolution of the retail environment
(from traditional to large-format specialised stores and e-commerce), and an evolving regulatory landscape.
The requirements of both the consumers and businesses have evolved, leading to a demand for more
innovative products.
The industry’s ecosystem has undergone drastic changes to keep pace with the changing demand patterns.
The supply chains are now far more complex, diverse, and optimised to meet the new industry structure.
Currently, a significant share of Indian demand is met by imports. But the Indian electronics industry is
being ushered into an era wherein the manufacture of several components will be indigenised through
regulatory support and incentivised production from the government of India.
The long-term growth potential for the industry is optimistic, primarily because the market
penetration is still low, currently standing at single digits for some categories like LED products and
industrial electronics. Besides, the positive outlook of higher GDP growth rate, rising disposable incomes,
improving physical and social infrastructure (availability of electricity and water), better logistics (facilitated
by improved road connectivity), the Digital India programme, and the expansion of retail will provide
additional impetus.
It is this promise of sustainable longterm growth that has attracted several international brands to
India, many of whom have set up manufacturing facilities here.
9
Specific to the electronics sector, several policies such as Make in India, National Policy of
Electronics, Net Zero Imports in Electronics, and Zero Defect Zero Effect, augur well for the industry, as
they signal a commitment to growth in domestic manufacturing, lowering import dependence, energising
exports, and environmentally-conscious manufacturing. Incentives to attract capital and measures to
develop the component supply base (applying the Phased Manufacturing Plan for mobiles to other
categories) will have to be sustained at the supply side, while also correcting aberrations in GST on the
demand side. Furthermore, despite the lockdown, the government of India has been consistently expanding
incentives through the three major schemes it launched in April 2020 with an outlay of ₹ 500 billion.
The electronics industry is one of the fastest growing across the world, set to reach US$ 7.3 trillion
by 2025. The Indian market is expected to be second only to China’s, followed by Vietnam, South Korea
and Taiwan.
The government of India is focusing on manufacturing electronics hardware within India, which
seems to be the conceptual origin for both the Make in India and the Digital India programmes. These
initiatives encourage domestic manufacturing and exports across the electronics system design and
manufacturing (ESDM) value chain, aiming to achieve a market size of US$ 251 billion by 2023. The Indian
electronics industry consists of seven main segments, including consumer electronics, industrial electronics,
communications and broadcasting electronics, strategic electronics, computer hardware, electronic
components, and LED products.
SIGNIFICANCE
The electronics industry is the economic sector that produces electronic devices. It emerged in the
20th century and is today one of the largest global industries. Contemporary society uses a vast array of
electronic devices built in automated or semi-automated factories operated by the industry.
Products are primarily assembled from metal-oxidesemiconductor (MOS) transistors and integrated
circuits, the latter principally by photolithography and often on printed circuit boards.
The size of the industry and the use of toxic materials, as well as the difficulty of recycling has led
to a series of problems with electronic waste. International regulation and environmental legislation has
been developed in an attempt to address the issues.
10
The electronics industry consists of various sectors. The central driving force behind the entire
electronics industry is the semiconductor industry sector,[1] which has annual sales of over $481 billion as
of 2018.[2] The largest industry sector is e-commerce, which generated over $29 trillion in 2017.[3] The
most widely manufactured electronic device is the metal-oxidesemi conductor field-effect transistor
(MOSFET), invented in 1959, which is the "workhorse" of the electronics industry.
The global marketplace is constantly evolving. No other industry experiences more change than
electronics. New technology becomes available at an alarming rate. In order to remain competitive in the
electronics industry, electronics manufacturers must be able to keep up. Electronics companies of all shapes
and sizes face the following challenges.
Technology evolves to meet the wants and needs of consumers. It’s crucial for electronics
manufacturers to have the right processes in place for new product introduction. Teaming up with a qualified
contract manufacturer ensures new products meet all quality, volume and release requirements.
Meeting Demand
Demand for technology is rapidly changing. Because technology is so closely intertwined with
demand, it is extremely vulnerable to changes in local conditions. Production capabilities should be kept
lean and able to shift to meet changing demand.
Environmental Impact
New standards and regulations require electronics manufacturers to consider the environmental
impact of a product’s entire life cycle. Every aspect must be considered, from the manufacturing process
and the chemicals used, to consumer energy use and disposal of the product.
11
Managing Service and Warranty
Having good quality control measures in place ensures that only high quality products are produced.
However, sometimes things go wrong. Being able to service faulty parts as opposed to replacing products
under warranty saves both time and money. It also allows electronics manufacturers to provide a greater
level of customer service and increase trust in their brand.
Power Consumption
It’s becoming more and more important for electronics manufacturers to produce smaller products
that last longer and consume less power. This can be a challenge for manufacturers without the equipment
or technology necessary to create new products. Contract manufacturers stay up-to-date with the latest
technology and practices. They help companies produce new products without spending the cost and time
involved with training and equipment.
Quality Control
With so many electronics companies competing in the marketplace, it’s more important than ever to
produce good quality products. Consumers want electronic products that operate the way they should. Strict
quality control measures ensure consistent quality of all products produced.
Means Engineering, Inc. offers electronic manufacturing services to a wide range of industries. We
are an ISO 9001, AS 9100 and ISO 13485 certified contract manufacturer. We work directly with you from

BOARD OF DIRECTORS ( MANAGEMENT TEAM )
PRODUCTS:
GT Electronic India is a well experienced manufacturer of customized toroidal chokes, high current
chokes, output chokes, EMI filters, power inductors and power supply filtering chokes for various
applications.
15
Manufacturing in customized terminals like SMD PIN, through hole PIN or flying leads with
crimp/connectors
Construction according to EN 61558-1, UL insulation system for class F (GT owned), RoHS and
REACH conformity.
The CMC chokes (two /more coils are wound on a single core) are used for prevention of
electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI) from power supply lines and for
prevention of malfunctioning of electronic equipment.
These chokes are based on high-permeability toroid core (ferrite) with two symmetrical windings,
so the magnetic fields are cancelling each other. They are mainly used in devices with switched mode power
supplies.
For rod core/drum core inductors, the wire is wound directly on the core. The core shape is typically
cylindrical or cylindrical with end caps.
GT Electronic India optimizes a Power Factor Correction (PFC) solution for any specific application.
PFC chokes are made of core with one main winding and an auxiliary winding, if needed.
PFC chokes are used to reduce significantly harmonic distortions – generally in line with the main
supply in SMPS components.
Storage Chokes
Storage chokes are used for energy storage in SMPS components. They are usually made of iron or
metal powder cores with one winding. When the inductance decreases with increasing load current, the load
current is typically selected at 60% to 75% of the non-load inductance.
16
Coils
GT Electronic India designs and manufactures various types of magnetic coils for multiple
applications, depending on the requirements of our customers. An electromagnetic coil is an electrical
conductor, such as a wire in the shape of a coil, spiral or helix.
Electromagnetic coils are used in electrical engineering, in applications where current interacts with
magnetic fields in devices such as inductors, electromagnets, transformers and sensor coils. Air Core Coils
An air core coil is an inductor that does not depend upon ferromagnetic materials to achieve its
specific inductance. Its inductance is quite low and the magnetization characteristic curve is linear. Air core
coils show no magnetic saturation compared to coils with magnetic cores.
Auxiliary Coil
GT Electronic India offers all types of customized auxiliary coils, depending on the requirements of
our customers. Regularly auxiliary coils are used in relays.
Solenoid Coils
Solenoid coils just look like a simple coil of wire, but when current passes through it, it becomes an
electromagnet. Electromagnets are particularly useful besides regular magnets, because they can be
switched on and off and strengthened by increasing the passed current.
Solenoid coils are used in relays, water pressure valve, hard disk drive, speakers, MRI machine, cars
etc
Rogowski Coils
Rogowski coils are “air-coated” toroidal coils located around the conductor. The alternating
magnetic field, produced by the current, induces a voltage in the coil, which is proportional to the rate of
change. They are used for measuring AC current or high speed current pulse. For Rogowski coils, the
winding must be as evenly as possible.
Uneven windings cause susceptibility at magnetic pickup in adjacent conductors or other sources of
magnetic fields. To avoid such errors, GT Electronic India uses a special machine for accurate windings.
17
High Frequency Transformer
GT Electronic India designs and manufactures all kind of customized high frequency switching
transformers in various geometry like EE, EF, ETD, EFD, RM, PQ, EI, ER,EP and toroidal. The operation

SMPS Transformer
GT Electronic India offers a wide range of customized SMPS transformers. These transformers are
used extensively in electronic applications, usually within a switch mode power supply. Fly Back
Transformer
Fly Back transformers (also called Line Output Transformers or LOPT) are designed to generate
high voltage saw tooth signals with relatively high frequency. They are used in SMPS.
Push-Pull Transformer
Push-Pull transformers (also called Buck-Boost transformer) are widely used in converting direct
current (DC) voltage into another value of DC voltage.
Push-Pull transformers are usually the preferred choice in high power switching transformer
applications up to one kilowatt.
18
Forward Transformer
Forward transformers are also popular switched mode power supply (SMPS) circuits, used for
producing isolated and controlled DC voltage from unregulated DC input supply.
Forward transformers are used in ranges from 100W to 500W, whereas Flyback transmitters are
particularly suited for low power applications.
GT Electronic India is your professional partner for all special applications and customized
transformers.
Current Transformer
Current transformers are devices that transform higher current value to lower current value (e.g. 50A
to 5A). Current transformers provide galvanic isolation from the voltage on the primary winding while
simultaneously creating a power signal that has been converted to a standard level (1A or 5A), which in turn
permits the use of standard measurement instruments and relays.
GT Electronic India is one of the leading manufacturer in encapsulated low tension current
transformers as per IS2705/IEC61869-2.

CHAPTER - III
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
• Relationship between employee satisfaction and customer satisfaction, Hoseong Jeon, Beomjoon
Choi, Volume. 26 Issue: ( 2012 ).
This study aims to examine whether the relationship between employee satisfaction (ES) and customer
satisfaction (CS) is bilateral or unilateral based on dyadic data. In addition, it seeks to examine the role of
moderating variables which have incremental impacts on this link.
Findings — Results indicate that employee satisfaction leads to CS but CS did not affect ES, which suggests
that the relationship between ES and CS is unilateral rather than bilateral. The findings also demonstrate
that the dispositional variables (i.e. self efficacy, cooperative.
Research limitations/implications ~ This study provided theoretical implications for the ES-CS relationship.
Practical implications — This finding suggests that top level management in the service industry must take
an active role in recruiting employees who are confident in their abilities and who display pro-social
dispositions.
Originality/value — The linkage between ES and CS has been previously examined but the findings have
been inconsistent. The authors used dyadic data to investigate the relationship between ES and CS and found
the influence of ES on CS but not vice versa.
28
The purpose of this study is to focus on employee satisfaction (composed of four dimensions: general
satisfaction with work; employee relationships; remuneration, benefits and organizational culture; and
employee loyalty), entrepreneurship and firm growth. The model's underlying hypotheses were
conceptually developed and empirically tested.
Design/methodology/approach — Using data collected via a structured questionnaire sent by email to 149
firms from Slovenia, the model's hypotheses were tested by applying structural equation modeling.
Findings — The findings support the hypothesized relationships between employee satisfaction,
entrepreneurship and growth. The influence of the control variables was also assessed in the model and firm
age was found to be influential.
Practical implications — Firms need to take a detailed and systematic approach to employee satisfaction in
order to improve entrepreneurship and growth.
Social implications — Activities related to the stimulation of employee satisfaction and entrepreneurship
can have also social implications, since they can increase creation of the new wealth in the society.
Slovenia (2014). Purpose — This paper sets out to explore the impact of aesthetics on employee satisfaction
and motivation.
29
Aesthetics seems to be particularly important to employees working with the business segment because of
the face-toface interaction between employees and customers. It appears that the “visual Teleport”
influences employees’ identification with the organization.
Practical implications -When organization s invest in art, design and architecture, they need to be active in
engaging employees with its meaning and relevance. If employees are not engaged, the aesthetic
environment will not stimulate creativity or influence job satisfaction and motivation.
Originality/value — The findings of this paper have enabled the creation of a matrix with four different
categories defined by the degree of financial investments in art, design and architecture and the extent of
investments im activities engaging employees.. A conceptual model is proposed that identifies possible
connections between aesthetics and employee performance.
Purpose — The aim of this paper is to examine the impact of implementing Six Sigma system on job
satisfaction and employee morale, and how job satisfaction, employee morale and Six Sigma
implementation are to support each other.
Design/methodology/approach — The paper builds a research framework which includes the variables of
Six Sigma, job satisfaction, and employee morale. The research methodology is the use of a field survey
questionnaire of a Taiwanese company.
Findings — The paper finds that the method of Six Sigma implementation in Taiwanese company was by a
top-down approach, where is the managers received the training and then were expected to pass on the
relevant knowledge to their subordinates. It also reveals that one key issue in Six Sigma implementation is
which organizational departments should first receive the Six Sigma training. The field study found that the
first departments related to logistics management, and then onto production line departments. Implementing
Six Sigma training has impact on organizational job satisfaction and employee morale.
The performance of Six Sigma training was able to achieve job satisfaction and employee morale, but the
employees who participated in Six Sigma training were more positive with regard to job Satisfaction and
employee morale.
30
Originality/value - Every organization has their special characteristics in relation to the Six Sigma system,
job satisfaction and employee morale. The organization should aim to better understand the relationship and
content of job satisfaction and employee morale with regard to successful Six Sigma implementation.
• Employee morale, Job satisfaction, Six Sigma, Taiwan Relationships between employee attitudes,
customer satisfaction and departmental performance, Dennis J. Adsit, Manuel (2016).
Describes how relationships were studied between employee attitudes, customer satisfaction, productivity,
and administrative effectiveness at two points in time in a computer-hardware customer-service
organization - 281 employees from 92 departments participating at time 1, and 215 employees from 87
departments participating in a follow-up survey ten months later. Performance and customer satisfaction
were associated with employees believing that they have input in evaluating success and have confidence
in the management team. Employee attitudes accounted for significant and practically meaningful
proportions of variance in performance. The ability of attitudes to predict unit performance and customer
satisfaction increased over time. Discusses the results in terms of the value of upward feedback for
increasing employee sensitivity to managerial and unit performance and for enhancing managers’ attention
to behaviors that influences departmental performance and customer satisfaction.
• Attitude surveys Company performance, Customer satisfaction, Customer service, List et al (2014)
Purpose — This paper aims to highlight the significance of employee satisfaction to creating a successful
Findings — The paper offers eight ways in which leaders can engage employees, increase job satisfaction,
and aid employee retention. They are: keep employees in the loop; be democratic; give credit where it is
due; offer progression; provide training; build your culture around teams; use your imagination; and r
Originality/value — The paper presents the arguments in a condensed and easy-to digest format.
In the early 1990s, a few organizations in the Netherlands began to experiment with flexible workplaces.
Traditional cellular offices and the open-plan offices or team oriented bullpen spaces in which everyone
had their own fixed workplace were no longer a matter of course.
31
Making use of modern information and communication technology, the pioneers redirected their attention
towards the sharing of activity related workplaces in a combo-office. Economic considerations (e.g. low
occupancy of expensive workplaces), organizational developments (network organizations, teamwork, fast
exchange of knowledge, part-time work) and external developments (globalization, strong competition) are
important drivers for change. The aim is to stimulate new ways of working (dynamic, less closely linked to
place and time), to improve labor productivity and to make major cost savings (fewer workplaces, fewer
square meters), without reducing employee satisfaction. Since then a number of new offices have been
realized. Twelve per cent of organization s that have moved recently use flexible workspaces for the most
part or exclusively. An important question now is whether the aims have been achieved. What are the actual
benefits? What are the risks? How should consultants advise their clients? The field is dominated by the
opinions of those in favor and those against. Statements expressing the successes or failures of flexible
offices contradict each other. Hard data are almost lacking. Due to the scarcity of empirically supported
insights, the Delft University of
Technology in the Netherlands together with the Centre for People and Buildings and the Centre for Facility
Management are carrying out investigations into the costs and benefits of workplace innovation. This paper
reports on progress so far, with a focus On employee satisfaction and labor productivity.
Purpose — This paper aims to explore the performance appraisal (PA) aspects that are connected with
organizational justice, and more specifically three kinds of justice, namely distributive, procedural and
interactional justice.
32
Research limitations/implications — The main limitation is that the research provides information based
only on one source, that of the appraise. However, it highlights the role of employee satisfaction to
organizational justice, linking different sources of satisfaction to different elements of justice.
Practical implications — This paper has practical implications for HRD, as & provides HR practitioners
with suggestions on how to increase the perceived justice of the PA system.
Originality/value — The value of this paper is to HR practitioners who design PA systems, and also
managers acting as appraisers of their subordinates.
Purpose — The main objective of this study is to determine the impact of employee empowerment on job
satisfaction. To serve this purpose, empowerment is taken into consideration as two dimensions — i.e.
behavioral and psychological — and the effect of employee empowerment on the level of job satisfaction
was examined by taking these two dimensions into consideration as a whole and separately.
Findings — The findings suggest that the most positive aspects related to job satisfaction are relations with
the colleagues and physical conditions, while the most negative aspect is the wage issue, i.e. unfair payment.
Furthermore, correlation and regression analyses indicate that psychological and behavioral empowerment
has a significant effect on job satisfaction, and the effect is much greater when psychological and behavioral
empowerment are taken as a whole.
Research limitations/implications — The major limitation of this study is that it covers the employees of
five-star hotels only. Another important limitation of the study is the exclusion of variables mentioned.
This apart, it is thought that the study will provide some insights for managers in terms of enhancing job
satisfaction and the effect of empowerment on job satisfaction as well as making a contribution to the
literature.
33
Originality/value — Studies into the relation between employee empowerment and job satisfaction on the
whole focus on only one aspect of empowerment, i.e. either behavioral empowerment or psychological
empowerment. This study incorporates behavioral and psychological empowerment together as the
components of empowerment, unlike previous studies in the literature, in determining their effect on job
satisfaction.
Purpose — The purpose of this paper is to present a toolkit to measure employee satisfaction and perceived
labour productivity as affected by different workplace strategies. The toolkit is being illustrated by a case
study of the Dutch Revenue Service.
Design/methodology/approach — The toolkit has been developed by a review of literature and tools for
data-collection. The toolkit has been tested and explored further in a number of case studies.
Findings — The toolkit includes a working environment diagnostic tool for an indicative or diagnostic
evaluation, a list of key performance indicators that can be used for benchmarking purposes, and a space
utilization monitor to measure the occupancy of workplaces. Data collected with the tool provides
organizations with a clear picture of user experience of the working environment on its own, in comparison
-to other organizations and in comparison to the goals of the organization. Employees are also asked to rank
the issues in order of importance to overall satisfaction and perceived productivity.
Research limitations/implications — The modules on economic added value and costs to explore the facility
costs effects of different office concepts have not been tested yet.
Practical implications — The toolkit and the data from case studies can be used by managers to support
decision making on interventions with regard to the Organizations' accommodation policy, re-designing or
adaptation of the present building, or moving to another building.
Scientifically, the data from case studies and cross case analyses can be used to explore and test hypotheses
about the best possible fit between people, processes and place.
Originality/value — Although a number of data collection tools have been developed earlier, the strength
of the present toolkit is its integral approach and is applicability to poth traditional and innovative offices.

Purpose — A literature review has revealed that a sales manager's transformational leadership has a positive
impact on the job satisfaction of salespeople, while job satisfaction has significant influence on salespeople's
work behaviors. The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between the transformational
leadership of sales managers and the job satisfaction of salespeople.
Design/methodology/approach — The research was designed as a quantitative study, and the population
was identified as salespeople in the consumer product industry in Taiwan, resulting in 123 individual
surveys for analysis.
Findings — The findings supported the hypothesis that there is a positive and statistically significant
relationship between sales managers' transformational leadership and sales associates’ job satisfaction. The
result identified the predictors of sales managers’ transformational leadership on the sales associates’ job
satisfaction through regression analysis.
Originality/value — The balanced scorecard (BSC) was originally intended to solve problems related to the
historical nature of financial measures in accounting approaches. The purpose of this paper is to make a
contribution to this literature by focusing on a major issue that has been less investigated, namely, the linking
of the BSC perspective to the empirical investigation of leadership behaviors using Statistical and technical
tools and to predict employee satisfaction. The paper suggests applying Kaplan and Norton's BSC, which
includes the perspectives of financial,customer, internal business, and innovation and learning measures to
consider the effects of leadership behaviors on employee job satisfaction.
Discusses the employee satisfaction surveys carried out at ISS, a facilities management company, to assess
the gap between what employees expected and what the company offered. Looks at ISS’s human resource
policies, with an emphasis on comprehensive training and employee development at all job levels, regular
performance appraisals, team effort and good communication.

Among the large number of currently available approaches for studying customer satisfaction, a very
promising one is that adopted in the European customer satisfaction index (ECSI) model. Yet, in spite of its
various contributions to customer satisfaction research, this approach exhibits certain limitations, of which
we will emphasize one: contrary to compelling evidence, the model does not consider the service climate
or, more specifically, the cause and effect relationship between employee behavior and customer
satisfaction. The main goal of the present paper is to contribute to counteracting such a limitation. A
reformulation of the ECSI model is suggested, integrating it into key components of employee satisfaction
models (employee satisfaction, loyalty and commitment) as they are perceived by customers. Both the ECSI
model and the ECSI revised model are estimated with data from a survey carried out among supermarket
customers, The results show that some variables such as perceived quality, customer satisfaction and loyalty
are better explained by the ECSI revised model. Also, statistically significant interactions between the new
variables (with the exception of employee loyalty) and some of the ECSI model variables (perceived product
quality and perceived service quality) were discovered.

CHAPTER IV
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Research:
It defined as a scientific & systematic search for pertinent information as specific topic. The advances
learner’s dictionary of current English lays down the meaning of research as “A careful investigation (or)
inquiry through search for new facts in any branch of knowledge”.
Descriptive research design was used to conduct the study. The research studies are those, which are
concerned with describing the characteristics of a particular individual or a group.
A Sample design is definite plan for obtaining a sample from a given population. It refers to the
technique or the procedure the researcher would adopt in selecting items for the sample. Sample design may
as well lay down the number of items to be include in the sample i.e., the size of the sample
4.3.1 Population
The sampling unit for the study refers to the employees of GT ELECTRONICS (INDIA) PRIVATE
LIMITED.
1. Primary data:
• The primary data is the data, which is collected to first time from the relevant are and they are original
in character. • Structured questionnaire method was used for collecting the data from the employees.
2. Secondary data:
• Secondary data will support the primary data for analysis and interpretation data which is collected
and processed from company manual, records, and Company website.
4.5 Research Instruments The research instrument which is used in the study is a well
structured questionnaire.
Percentage analysis, is used to represent the results graphically from the questionnaire. It can be
represented to bar charts and pie charts.
No. of Respondents
Percentage of Respondents = x 70
In this study it is used to describe the general information with group about gender, age, income
point of purchase etc.
38
CHI-SQUARE TEST
It is one of the simplest and most widely used non-parametric test , in statistical work. The quantity
describes the magnitude of discrepancy between theory and observation.(i.e.,with the help of X2 test we can
know whether a discrepancy between theory and observation can attributed to chance or whether it results
from the inadequacy of the theory to fit the observed facts.
ANNOVA
It is a collection of statistical models and their associated estimation procedures (such as the
―variation‖ among and between groups) used to analyze the differences among group means in a sample.

CHAPTER VII
• The organization can increase monetary benefits provided to the employees so it will
increase job satisfaction.
• The organization can provide Transportation facility so that employees can present
their job on time and also increase job satisfaction. So the company can provide proper
transportation facilities to all its employees. This would in turn minimize the problems
like employee turnover absenteeism for the company.
• The organization can concentrate on canteen facilities because employees are expecting
more above the existing facilities provided to their employees.
• The organization can increase the salary so that employees can eager to do their work
effectively.
• Most of the employees are not aware about the medical facilities and other facilities
that are provided by their organization, so the organization should create the awareness
program and take general survey. This would in turn increase the level of Positive
attitude to the employees towards their management.
• Majority of the employees are not satisfied with the recreational facilities Provided to
them. Even a slight fall or decrease in the level of satisfaction could cause the reduction
in over all production and employee’s performance.
