Employee stagnation in a certain position, centralized decision making and tendency for micromanagement are among the pressing issues for companies experiencing growth. The chief purpose of the study is to determine the extent of career management, people empowerment and employee motivation as perceived by the personnel of the University of Cebu (UC). The study applied the descriptive design with the use of questionnaire designed by the researcher as the major tool for data collection. The respondents were the teaching and the non-teaching personnel of UC. The results revealed that there were significant differences on the extent to which people empowerment was upheld by management as well as the motivational needs of the employees. In the aspects of motivation, among Herberg’s hygiene factors, only two (2) were well addressed. These were pay and job security. Therefore, it is concluded that hygiene factors do not necessarily go together as perceived by employees despite the fact that Herzberg’s two-factor theory grouped these aspects together as one. Keywords – Human resource, career management, Herzberg’s two-factor theory, descriptive design, Cebu City, Philippines

Introduction: Job satisfaction refers to the employees having a feeling of job stability, career growth and a comfortable work life balance which implies that the employee is having satisfaction at job and the individual’s expectations are met. Job satisfaction is one of the most important factors that determine efficiency and productivity of human resources. It is vital to increase nurse’s job satisfaction to improve patients care quality and ensure adequate nursing workforce which helps in the development of effective strategies to address the nursing shortage and increase the quality of patient care. The objective of this study was to assess the level of job satisfaction among nurses working in the government hospital. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional design was adopted. All the nursing staffs working in Kanti Children’s Hospital, Kathmandu, Nepal were the study population and the total sample size was 81, selected using stratified random sampling techniques from different wards. The information was collected by using self-administered structured questionnaire. Level of job satisfaction was assessed by using 5point Likert Scale. The collected data were entered into SPSS version 16 and were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The study findings showed that almost half (46.9%) of the respondents were satisfied with their current job. The satisfaction mean score obtained by work itself and nursing practice was (23.35 + 4.25) followed by advancement opportunity with mean value (20.44 + 4.97). Similarly, the satisfaction score obtained for recognition and reward (6.80 + 2.62) followed by participation in decision making with mean value (9.45 + 2.24). There was a statistical association between the level of job satisfaction and ethnicity (p = 0.41), marital status (p = 0.005), professional qualification (p = 0.001) and work experience (p = 0.002) of the respondents. Conclusions: Based on the findings it is concluded that nearly half of the nurses were satisfied with their job. The most satisfying factor is the work itself whereas the least satisfying factor is the recognition and reward given to them followed by participation in decision making.

Introduction: Occupational satisfaction expresses the pleasant or positive satisfaction that comes from the person’s perception for its occupation or work experience. It is customary for professional satisfaction to be assessed mainly using questionnaires. Unfortunately, so far, none has been used in welfare professionals. Aim: The aim of this paper is to study three different questionnaires which assess professional satisfaction, and to draw conclusions regarding their use in assessing the professional satisfaction of employees working in welfare structures. Methodology: In the present comparative study three questionnaires were used: 1.Job Satisfaction Survey (JSS), 2.Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire (MSQ) and 3. Greek Nurses’ Job Satisfaction Scale (GNJSS) in assessing the professional satisfaction of 84 employees in welfare institutions in Thessaly region, Greece. The study also evaluated the various satisfaction factors of each questionnaire. For the data processing, the SPSS Statistical Package was used with a statistical significance level of p=0.05. Internal Integrity (Cronbach’s), t-tests, and one-ANOVAs were tested to identify any differences in individual factors. Results: The credibility of internal cohesion (Cronbach’s) was 0.90, 0.34 and 0.86 for the GNJSS, JSS, and MSQ questionnaires, respectively. There were no statistically significant differences in professional satisfaction as to gender, hierarchy, experience and income in the GNJSS and MSQ questionnaires. In contrast, a statistically significant difference (p<0.05) was found in professional satisfaction with educational level in the MSQ. A different degree of significance was also observed for the factors of each questionnaire. Conclusions: In the present study low degree of professional satisfaction of welfare employees was found. The primary factor in detecting the reasons for the low degree of professional satisfaction of welfare employees is, also, the use for the appropriate – anchored and reliable – measuring tool. Bibliographic research reports contradictory conclusions on the reliability and validity of professional satisfaction assessment tools.
