i. Job Satisfaction
Job satisfaction refers to one’s feeling towards one’s job. An individual having satisfaction is said to posses positive attitude towards the job. Conversely, a dissatisfied person will have negative attitude towards his or her job. When people speak of employee attitudes they invariably refer to job satisfaction. In fact, the two terms are used interchangeably, though subtle difference does exist between the two.
ii. Job Involvement
Job involvement refers to the degree with which an individual identifies psychologically with his or her job and perceives his or her perceived performance level important to self worth. High degree of job involvement results in fewer absence and lower resignation rates.
iii. Organizational Commitment
The last job attitude refers to organizational commitment. It is understood as one’s identification with his or her organization and feels proud of being its employee. Job involvement refers to one’s attachment to a job whereas organizational commitment implies an employee’s identification with a particular organization and its goals. Needless to say, it is to state that, an individual may be attached to his or her job but may be indifferent to the organization and its objectives. Turnover and absenteeism are low when employees have organizational commitment.
