Measures of Job Satisfaction, Organisational

Commitment, Mental Health and Job related Well-
being: A Benchmarking Manual (Paperback)
by Chris Stride (Author), Toby D. Wall (Author), Nick Catley (Author)

1.Book Reviews

Book Description

Promoting the satisfaction, commitment, mental health and well-being of employees is

important not only in itself, but also because evidence shows that those who are positive
in these respects respond better to change and are more productive. Measures of Job
Satisfaction, Organisational Commitment, Mental Health and Job-related Well-being is a
unique source of benchmarking data across four widely used questionnaire methods, that
provides up-to-date data drawn from 60,000 respondents in 170 organisations across a
wide range of industries and occupations. The data is split by sector and occupational
group, with the latter broken down further by age and gender, creating a must-have for
those using these scales and seeking to benchmark their progress.

From the Back Cover

There is much evidence to suggest that those who are satisfied at work respond more
positively to change than those who are unsatisfied, and that organizations report higher
productivity where employees consider themselves satisfied.
This second edition of Measures of Job Satisfaction, Mental Health and Job-related Well-
being: A Benchmarking Manual is a unique resource of benchmarking data for widely
used questionnaire measures of job satisfaction. The benchmarking data is based on a
sample of almost 60,000 respondents from 115 different organisations across a wide
spectrum of industries and occupations. The data is presented for each measure by their
subscales and/or main variants and is given by industrial sector, and by occupational
group, broken down by age and gender.
Dealing with four measurement scales of job satisfaction and adding a brand new chapter
and extended introduction, this book provides comparative data or ‘norms’ on:
Job Satisfaction.
Mental Health.
Job-related Well-being.
As well as brand new benchmarking data for Organisational Commitment.

Job Satisfaction and Organisational Citizenship

Behaviour: A study of the relationship between job
satisfaction experienced by employees in a brick
manufacturing company and OCB (Paperback)
by Nadine Sha (Author)

1.Book Reviews

Book Description

Organ (1988) defines organisational citizenship behaviour as an individual?s behaviour

which is discretionary, not directly recognized by a formal reward system and it should
lead to more effective running of the organisation. The purpose of this study is to
investigate and review literature that examines whether job satisfaction and procedural
justice have a positive relationship with the employees organisational citizenship
behaviour (OCB) in a brick manufacturing industry. Literature suggests that the first
research on the antecedents of OCB found that job satisfaction was to be the best
predictor. Organ (1997) noted that after two decades of research, job satisfaction is still
the leading predictor of OCB. Workers with high levels of job satisfaction are more likely
to be engaged in OCB (Brown, 1993). It has also been found that the influence of
procedural justice on OCB exists as well (Farh, Podsakoff & Organ, 1990). The sample
consists of unskilled and semi-skilled employees, with approximately N = 767 employees
and their supervisors or management.
