Being the best employer is not about spoiling your employees but helping them and realizing their true potential. Job satisfaction is the result of various attitudes the employee holds towards his job and towards life in general .
The relation ship between man and work has always attracted the attention of philosophers, scientists and novelists. A major part of rrians life is spent in work; work is a social reality and social expectation to which man seem to, conform. It not only conforms status to the individual but also binds him to the society.
It may seem that with the growing complexities of tl1 industrial sociality, work is simply a means of earning a living. An individuals sense or well-being of doing something worthwhile, of having some considerations, may be so compulsive that men may continue to work even if they are not pressed by economic needs. If men worked for money alone, there would be no way of explaining the fact that some men who have plenty of money still continue to work.
