Name: Habib Samih Khawam Title: Job Satisfaction among Employees and its Effects on Job Performance: An Empirical Study on Al Jazeera Network Institution: Arab British Academy for Higher Education Country: United Kingdom Date: 2010 Language: English Abstract: This study aims to identify the level of job satisfaction among the staff of Al Jazeera network in order to identify the reasons behind variations in staff performance and measure the correlation between the level of job satisfaction and improvement in the level of staff performance. The study used a questionnaire to collect data in three specific areas: the relationship between job satisfaction and productivity, the relationship between staff performance and internal working environment, and the relationship between job satisfaction and salary and motivation. The research findings showed that there is a clear institutional policy stipulating the recruitment of holders of high qualifications, that there are employees in the network with great experience, and that the wages in the network give staff a sense of satisfaction. However, there is a feeling by some staff that functions within are not always distributed fairly. It was also found that whenever employees receive promotion and incentives their passion for work increases and performance improves, and when there is a policy of an annual increase of wages and salaries, there is a significant impact on job performance.
