dc.description.abstractJob satisfaction of academic staff of universities is very vital because teaching at university level is venerated and sensitive job. Job satisfaction has been a question mark and in debate by the researchers since long. It gained much importance due to its significance for the achievement of objectives of any organization. The purpose of this study was to explore job satisfaction of academic staff in St Mary’s university. To achieve the objective of this study, observation was made and self-administered questions were distributed to 85 respondents and all respondents returned the questionnaires. The respondents were selected using stratified sampling technique and within each strata random sampling techniques took place. Secondary data were also extracted from prospectus and other published materials of St. Mary’s University. The data collected from the questioner were analyzed using statistical tools such as mean and standard deviation. The result of this study illustrates, the academic staff was found least satisfied with contingent rewards and they have average (ambivalent) level of all over job satisfaction. However, they were not satisfied with salary increments, promotion and rewards. However demographic characteristics have insignificant association with job satisfaction. More importantly the study discovers job hygiene factors have strong influence than job motivators on job satisfaction. Besides, from the hygiene factors, working condition is the most influential factor on job satisfaction. Based on the findings of the study, the researcher forwards some recommendations to the management of st. Mary’s university to achieve academic staff job satisfaction by improving tuition reimbursements to support academic staff and update organizational benefits based on the current market for similar skills and professions.en_US
