  23. Motivator and Hygiene Needs • When motivator needs are met, workers will be satisfied; when these needs are not met, workers will not be satisfied. • When hygiene needs are met, workers will not be dissatisfied; when these needs are not met, workers will be dissatisfied.

  24. Exhibit 3.7 Two Views of Job Satisfaction

  25. The Discrepancy Model of Job Satisfaction • To determine how satisfied they are with their jobs, workers compare their job to some “ideal job.” This “ideal job” could be • What one thinks the job should be like • What one expected the job to be like • What one wants from a job • What one’s former job was like • Can be used in combination with the Facet Model.

  26. Determining Satisfaction with the Discrepancy and Facet Models • A) How much (enter job facet) do you currently have at your job? • B) How much (enter job facet) do you think your job should have? • The difference between A and B indicates the level of satisfaction with that facet • The differences are summed for an overall satisfaction score

  27. The Steady-State Theory of Job Satisfaction • Each worker has a typical or characteristic level of job satisfaction, called the steady state or equilibrium level. • Different situational factors or events at work may move a worker temporarily from this steady state, but the worker will eventually return to his or her equilibrium level.
