Supervisor-Employee Relationship in Relation to Job Satisfaction

: Job satisfaction plays an important role in job performance, positively influencing it. Successful companies should achieve maximal employee job satisfaction and therefore better performance of a company. Although many factors affect job satisfaction, it is needed to mention the supervisor (leader) – employee relationship. This study aims to determine whether the answers of non-supervisory and manager/supervisory employees differ in relation to job satisfaction and how individual groups evaluate the sub-questions focused on information about the relationship with supervisors and communication in the company. The available results indicate that there is a statistically significant difference between job satisfaction ratings between non-supervisory employees and manager/supervisory employees (p = 0.0002). When rating the supervisor-focused sub-questions, there were statistically significant differences between males and females in both work positions and then between males from non-supervisory and manager/supervisory employees.
