The Effects of Demographic Attributes on Work Outcomes: A Study of the Lebanese Labor Market

Year: 2015

Type: article

Abstract: This paper seeks to explore the relationships between demographic variables and work outcomes, specifically motivation, promotion, and work advancement. It also investigates the impact of demographics on sector preference, whether public or private. A conceptual model was developed based on a review of the literature. The model was tested through an empirical study involving a questionnaire collected from multiple respondents working in Lebanese companies. The results imply that demographic variables have a significant impact on work outcomes, some separately, and others jointly due to a multiplication factor. A deep analysis of the findings will be discussed in this paper. In order to understand the mentality of the Lebanese Employee, this paper will focus on the relationship between demographic variables and work outcomes. This paper fills a gap in the literature by providing empirical evidence about such relationships, as well as relevant implications that policymakers can utilize in making decisions that aim at raising performance and other work outcomes.
