Exploring the Dynamics of Job Satisfaction in Banking Sector: a Comparative Study of Public and Private Sector Banks
Year: 2025
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: This study analyses the determinants of job satisfaction among bank officers in both public and private sector banks with regard to inter-sectoral differences. The research covers pivotal predictors like ‘Career Growth’, ‘Motivation and Compensation’, ‘Nature of the Job’, and ‘Relationship and Support’, with a sample comprising of 202 bank officers, equally split between private and public sectors. From the demographic perspective, there was an equitable distribution of respondents in terms of gender, age, education, and experience, which is representative of the workforce. Multi-group analysis showed that Career Growth does predict job satisfaction for both sectors which underlines the significance of promotional avenues and advancement in one’s career to every employee’s satisfaction. It is surprising that Motivation and Compensation were not significant predictors of satisfaction in either sector which implies that rewards and incentives per se are not sufficient to improve job satisfaction.
