Factors Affecting Job Satisfaction and Productivity of Sewing Line Workers A Study on Selected Readymade Garment Industries in Myanmar

A basic requirement for job satisfaction among sewing line workers is a working environment that allows workers to perform their work at an optimal level in a comfortable environment. The working environment plays an essential role in workers job satisfaction and the impact of job satisfaction on productivity. A causal study was conducted to examine the impact of the working environment on job satisfaction and productivity of workers in the garment manufacturing industries. In this study, six factors of the work environment were considered for job satisfaction, which are, working conditions, remuneration, job security, psychosocial work environment, ergonomics and work participation. Data was collected from four readymade garment industries in Myanmar using random sampling. Multiple regression analysis and simple linear regression were used to predict the correlation. Based on the finding, this study showed that working conditions, remuneration and psychosocial work environment have strong casual effect on workers' job satisfaction and job security and ergonomics are moderate and work participation is low casual effect on workers' job satisfaction.
