    Question

    Which of the following are the determinants of the job satisfaction according to Frederick Herzberg?
    A. Achievement
    B. Recognition
    C. Work itself
    D. Salary
    E. Working Conditions.
    Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

    A.

    A, B, C, D and E only

    B.

    A, C, D and E only

    C.

    A, B and C only

    D.

    C, D and E only

    Correct option is C

    According to Frederick Herzberg's Two-Factor Theory of job satisfaction, also known as the Motivator-Hygiene Theory, the primary determinants of job satisfaction are motivator factors that relate to the nature of the work itself and the way individuals respond to their responsibilities. These factors include:
    (A) Achievement
    (B) Recognition
    (C) Work itself
    These are considered motivators that can significantly enhance job satisfaction. Herzberg identified these aspects as contributing to an employee's motivation and satisfaction at work.
    Option (D) "Salary" and (E) "Working Conditions" are classified under Herzberg's theory as hygiene factors. While these factors can cause dissatisfaction if they are inadequate, improving them does not lead to long-term job satisfaction but rather prevents dissatisfaction. Therefore, they are not considered primary determinants of job satisfaction in the same way that motivator factors are.
    The correct answer is (c) A, B, and C only, as these are the factors that Herzberg identified as directly contributing to job satisfaction.
