Summary: | The job satisfaction level of selected foodservice supervisors (n = 86) was assessed using the Job Satisfaction Survey, JSS (Spector 1985). The survey instrument contained three parts: the JSS, demographic questions, and job task statements. Relationships between job satisfaction and job characteristics, conditions of employment and demographic variables were determined. Subscales of the JSS with the highest scores were "nature of work" and "supervision." Respondents were least satisfied with "promotion," "pay," "contingent rewards" and "operating procedures." The mean score for the total JSS was 3.87, agree slightly, on a 6-point scale of 1 = disagree very much and 6 = agree very much. This finding would indicate respondents were somewhat satisfied with their jobs. |
