Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CURRENT RESEARCH - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 5
Abstract
The present study investigated emotional intelligence and job tenure as predictors of job satisfaction among university administrative staff. The sample was selected through purposive sampling and inclusion criteria were gazetted and non-gazetted administrative staff members having minimum job experience of one year. The data was collected from 153 administrative staff members (Male = 105, Female = 45)of 22 to 63 years old that having current job tenure ranged from 1 to 7 years. Emotional Intelligence Scale (Wong and Law, 2002) and Job Satisfaction Survey Scale (Spector, 1985) were administered individually to the participants in their respective offices. The results revealed that the variable of Emotional Intelligence is not significantly correlated with Job Satisfaction and Current job tenure but Job Satisfaction is significantly correlated with Current job tenure. Further Linear Regression Analysis illustrated that Current Job Tenure is a significant predictor of job satisfaction of university Administrative Staff. The findings also illustrated that there was no gender difference in the current job tenure as well as expression of Emotional Intelligence and Job Satisfaction. The current findings were also discussed in the terms of cultural and research implications for organizations.
