Describe how job satisfaction can be measured and the difficulties associated with measuring it.

What will be an ideal response?


Job satisfaction is an attitude, not a behavior. We can experience behaviors directly, while we can measure attitudes only indirectly. Because of this, we must use some form of survey and ask the employees about their job satisfaction level. When using job satisfaction surveys, we have to ensure that they are anonymous, or employees will most likely not tell the truth about their satisfaction levels.
