Abstract Abstract
The aim of the present research was to study the effect of job satisfaction on the performance of employees working in private sector organizations of Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh. For that purpose, one hundred and eighty employees (N = 180) were selected as a sample from private organizations of Kanpur. An equal number of employees, i.e., (n = 60), were selected through random sampling method from three types of organizations, viz., hospitals, banks, and universities. A Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire (MSQ-short form) developed by Weiss et al. (1967) and a self-constructed Performance Evaluation Form (PRF) were used as instruments for the study. Initially, the reliability statistics of both the instruments was calculated to know the significance of the scales. According to the findings of the study, the type of occupation has been shown significant correlation with job satisfaction. Similarly, the positive relationship of job satisfaction with performance of employees was also confirmed. Therefore, it is concluded from the study that satisfied employees were better in performance as compared to dissatisfied employees, thus contributing significant role in the uplifting of their organizations. As there are unstable economic and political conditions of Kanpur, it is therefore necessary for every organization to make their employees motivated and satisfied towards high performance by adopting different techniques and methods.
