Job satisfaction and motivation are two relatively
broad concepts, however extremely important for individual employees,
companies, and society, for employees, job satisfaction and motivation are
important with respect to experiencing mastery and happiness (Scheers & Botha,2014).
In order to do that highly satisfied work force is an absolutely need for
achieving a high level of performance advancement of an organization, A
satisfied employee can motivate to extend more effort to improve the performance
(Pushpakumari,2008).
Where there is motivation, there is satisfaction
with the Job: employees to feel more satisfied, a variety of
incentives-material or moral should be offered by administration (Mashaqbah,2018).
The satisfaction of one need leads to the
feeling of another need, motivation is the goal directed behavior which leads
to goal full fillment & satisfaction, people feel job satisfaction when
they receive positive feedback after job well done (Bajpai & Rajpot,2018).

Motivation will come from the gratification of
the work itself or from the wish to achieve more money or being promoted, it
also comes from the sense of satisfaction gained from completing something, or
achieving a successful outcome (Elanga,2013).
