About Employee DissatisfactionOne of the major reasons for employee dissatisfaction is the lack of personal growth and progress. Job dissatisfaction makes employees decide to look for something better and work for other companies or become self employed. People don't work just for the sake of money alone though that's the main motivation. They want to advance in their careers. They want their employers to give them responsibilities and trust that they can perform. They want to feel appreciated. They want to build great working relationships with their employers and colleagues. They want to learn. When humans don't experience any kind of personal progress, they feel bored and uninspired. They rebel by either giving less than their best, bicker around or walk off. Some employees who are dissatisfied will walk out even though their new salaries are lower and the perks similar or lesser than what they were getting in their previous employments? Employer Expectation versus Employee DissatisfactionBoth employers and employees have expectations. The employer employee conflict happens when the expectations are not mutual. It will end up with the employers complaining that their workers are not performing and employees grumbling that their bosses are selfish. How could an employee meet the employer's expectations if she does not know her roles, responsibilities and job function? Be concise and explain clearly what is expected from her. An employer must also inform her of the company's vision and mission from the start of employment. It's easy for her to decide if she wants to become a part of the establishment. One of the areas that an employer has to look into if employee dissatisfaction is prevalent and staffs are leaving their jobs at an unacceptable rate is the capability of its heads of departments. He has to evaluate the performance of his managers and supervisors. His leaders can make or break the team and his business. The employer should provide his team with the necessary tools and resources to help them become more efficient and productive. He should encourage them to learn and study more about their work and the industry there are in to help them advance. Well trained and motivated staffs are assets to an organization. Business is not only about making profits. Its growth depends on building relationships with everyone involved. Both the clients' and employees' interests are important to the business. Well-trained, motivated and satisfied employees render outstanding services and bring satisfaction to clients. Happy clients provide more income and referrals. Trust that your employees will do their jobs and that they'll do them well. Allow your employee to have a say and the power to make decisions relating to his assigned task. They'll prove to you that they are capable. Don't check on them too often. You can evaluate them periodically. Do that impartially. Create a safe, organized and healthy working environment because employees spend at least one third of their waking hours there. Practicing favoritism, allowing back biting and encouraging gossiping are some of the examples of a bad working culture. A healthy workplace with equal opportunities given to everyone reduces employee dissatisfaction. Receiving a bonus is always a delight for employees. Getting a raise and a promotion is every worker's expectation. But other than this and more important is getting or receiving compliments, recognitions, and approval on a regular basis. It boosts morale. It makes one feel appreciated and acknowledged. Your Response or CommentWhat do you think? Return from employee dissatisfaction page to about personal growth homepage. |
