Examining The Relationship Between Job Satisfaction And Employee Retention In The Neemrana Industrial Region (Alwar)
Main Article Content
Abstract
Employee retention is increasingly linked to job satisfaction, positioning it as a pivotal aspect of modern human resource management research. This study investigates this relationship through a synthesis of existing literature and empirical analysis. Job satisfaction includes several dimensions such as recognition, job autonomy, job fit, role clarity, and communication. Recognition and rewards significantly influence employee loyalty. Deci and Ryan (2000) noted that intrinsic rewards, like personal growth, play a crucial role in retaining employees [1]. Herzberg's two-factor theory also identifies recognition as a primary motivator [2].
