Job involvement of employees in hospitality industry in relation to their job satisfaction

Abstract

Descriptive method using survey as a technique was designed to test the aforementioned variables on 200 employees working in hospitality industry in Tamilnadu. Job involvement scale and Job satisfaction scale were used to collect data. The result indicated that job involvement positively and significantly affects job satisfaction. This employee-friendly attitude is adopted by industrial firms consequent on the awareness that monetary and incentives and facilities offered to the employees are more an investment than expenditure. Only satisfied employees can make quality products or can render quality services and hence job satisfaction is of vital importance in the hotel industry.
