Summary: | The purpose of this study were to investigate the relationship between monetary
rewards and job satisfaction as well as to examine the job satisfaction among
administrative personnel at selected public schools in Setiu District. Terengganu. This
study used disproportionate sampling technique and the response rate was 100.0%. The
data were collected by using survey questionnaire distributed to the respondents (n=86)
where they, had to rate their job satisfaction on monetary rewards (salary, bonuses and
allowances). The questionnaire was adopted from Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire
(1967) and Robles (2018), and the result was analyzed by using SPSS V-22. The
respondents were from 7 primary and 6 secondary public schools and their grade of
position were from N11 and N19. They have 10 to 15 years length of service and their
salary were between RM2,001 to RM3,000. They have obtained 90 to 100 for their
performance evaluation marks. The findings showed that there was very strong
relationship between monetary rewards and job satisfaction (r=0.79, p=0.00). Moreover,
they all had similar correlation between job satisfaction and salary (r=0.70, p=O.OO),
bonuses (r=0.72, p=O.OO) as well as allowances (r=0.84, p=0.00). Obviously,
administrative personnel in this study have moderate perception towards their job
satisfaction. It is recommended that the top management increase the monetary rewards
and provide more financial rewards. The researcher suggests that future study should
cover other industries and includ a large number of respondents, in order to gain a
comprehensive and reliable result of analysis. |
