THE RELATION BETWEEN AGE, FORMAL EDUCATION, DEGREE MAJOR, AND JOB SATISFACTION OF THE HR EMPLOYEES

Human resource (HR) employees are responsible for measuring the job satisfaction of all employees of the organization, but in this research study, the job satisfaction of HR employees was measured. The study examined the relationship between age, formal education, degree major, and job satisfaction of HR employees. The Herzberg motivation theory was considered the foundation of this study in which the motivational and hygiene factors were used. The emerging sector of the economy, the telecom sector, was targeted in this study. Only HR employees of the industry were taken as the sample of this study. The employees were asked to fill the demographic survey and the Gallup organization model. The statistical tools were used to analyze the data and determine the relationship between the independent variables and the dependent variable. The data's statistical analysis revealed that HR employees did not show any association with age and formal education level. However, the degree major showed a positive relationship with the job satisfaction of the HR employees. It means that employee's age or qualification does not affect job satisfaction, but major qualification areas affect their satisfaction.
