The document discusses the results of a survey on motivation. It aimed to understand what motivates employees to stay with an organization and what influences their job satisfaction and commitment. The survey found that while basic needs like breaks and time off were met, respondents were dissatisfied with salaries. Safety needs were partially met through working conditions, but job security was uncertain. Esteem factors like recognition motivated many employees. Relationships influenced motivation, but HR support was lacking. Self-actualization through career growth and doing one's best work also motivated employees. In conclusion, the survey showed motivation comes from fulfilling multiple needs and serving both intrinsic and extrinsic motivators.

• All the people said their organization was able to satisfy their
basic needs such as salary increments, incentives, breaks and
leaves but were dissatisfied with the salary they drew.

36. FINDINGS & CONCLUSION (2/3)
• A majority of the surveyed people said their company could
satisfy their safety needs such as physical working condition
but were not so satisfied with the job security their
organization offered. Many were uncertain about the medical
and retirement benefits.
• We saw a good one sided response on the Esteem factors as a
huge proportion of the surveyed people seemed satisfied with

role in keeping them motivated in the organization. But
most of them seemed dissatisfied with their HR

• Self-actualization is also a major motivator in the
organization. Almost whole of the surveyed people
