1. Introduction
Motivating the workforce of an organization to work more effectively towards the organization’s goals is perhaps the most fundamental task of management. Organizations motivate their workforce to perform effectively by offering them rewards for satisfactory performance and perhaps punishing them for unsatisfactory performance. Over the past hundred years or so there has been an evolution in the view of what the term ‘rewards’ actually means in an organizational context. In the age of Scientific Management, forwarded by Frederick Winslow Taylor in the 1890’s, only monetary rewards were considered to be important to employees. This rather limited view of employees’ needs and rewards gave way in the 1920’s when a series of experiments at the Western Electric Company’s Hawthorne plant led to a new paradigm of worker motivation. The Hawthorne experiments, as they came to be known, led to a view that saw employees motivated more by social needs rather than by purely economic ones. This viewpoint, known as the Human Relations Movement, attempted to identify and satisfy the social needs of the worker in the belief that a 15
satisfied worker worked harder than an unsatisfied worker. Rewards under the Human Relations viewpoint, therefore, also included the relationships employees form with their fellow workers. It was thus seen to be in the organization’s interest to provide an environment that allows and encourages social relationships to develop. Finally, the Human Resources Movement began to concentrate more on the needs of the individual rather than the interactions within working groups. The Human Resources Movement views the worker as being largely ‘pre-motivated’ to perform to the best of their abilities and it becomes the task of management to provide conditions whereby workers can meet their own individual goals at the same time as meeting those of the organization. Rewards under the Human Resources Movement therefore include a wide range of factors, such as money, affiliation, achievement and performing a meaningful job.
1.1 Research Background The world is going through an enormous change. Globalization of businesses is increasing and information technologies are advancing. These major changes are reshaping our world significantly, for better and for worse. They lead to changes in the way business is done, they way employees behave and the way managers mange their employees. For companies to remain successful, they are required to adapt to these changes. The changes that are reshaping the world have altered the way organizations operate and have also led to changes in employee characteristics (Robbins, 2000:21). Although many theorists believe the changes in the world of work have brought advantages, several believe that the changes have different and disparate impact on the employees. However, in contrast with the traditional way of managing, where the structures and the systems were predefined, the new work place seeks to balance whatever is important for the company and its strategies with whatever is important for the individual employees regarding their life strategies.
16
Management in today’s world is about management in times of rapid change. In today’s world, the biggest task of the human-resource manager is to motivate and retain employees. Motivation is a company’s life-blood. A well managed company can motivate and retain its employees and hence has the following competitive advantages: reduced turnover, an increase in productivity, reduced absenteeism, increased revenue and improved performance. However, managers tend to assume that they know what the employees want from their work. This assumption can lead mangers into making mistakes while trying to motivate their employees. This study is thus an attempt to help mangers to understand the factors that motivate their employees to perform to the best of their ability.
1.2 Research Problems Motivated employees are needed in our rapidly changing work place. Motivated employees help organization survive. Motivated employees are more productive. To be effective managers need to understand what motivates employees within the context of the roles they perform. Of all the functions a manager performs, motivating employees is arguably the most complex. This is due in part, to the fact that what motivate employee’s changes constantly. Motivation is not based on a particular theory and it does not advocate any particular technique for application. The motivation research mainly understood employee’s mentality towards the motivational packages of the organization and the energy it creates for employees to be engaged in their work. The energy which the employees possess is often blocked in the work place, beyond certain points. It is necessary to identify the various blocking factors of motivational system in the organization. An organization could be considered effective only if the motivational features are satisfactory according to the employees. An enterprise must committed to the assurance of motivation in order retain the talents in its workforce. 17
The changing view of organizational rewards and employee motivation has led to a multitude of theories of exactly how the job rewards influence the motivation and performance of employees. Steers [1987] stated that “a comprehensive theory of motivation at work must address itself to at least three important sets of variables which constitute the work situation” i.e. the characteristics of the individual, the characteristics of the job and the characteristics of the work environment. These three sets of variables, along with examples of each, are depicted in the following diagram. Individual Work Job Characteristics Environment Characteristics Characteristics Types Interests of intrinsic rewards Immediate Degree Attitudes of autonomy work environment Amount − Toward of self direct performance − Peers job Toward feedback − Supervisors Toward aspects of Organisational work situation actions Degree of variety in tasks − Reward practices Needs − Security Systemwide rewards − Social Individual rewards − Achievement Organisational climate
1.3 Review of Related Literature Employee motivation is influenced by the employee himself or herself, the management and the environment. Motivating the employee is the manager’s job. It is therefore the manager’s job to 18
understand what motivates the employees. Based on Locke and Latham’s integrated model of work motivation, various theories of work, employee motivation will be discussed, including Maslow’s need hierarchy, McClelland’s personality-based approach to employee motivation, Vroom’s VIE theory, Locke and Latham’s goal theory, Bandura’s self-efficacy theory, Weiner’s attribution theory, Herzberg’s job characteristics model, the organizational commitment theory and Adam’s equity theory. These theories attempt to explain employees’ behavior. They provide understanding to both managers and employees of how to motivate others or become more involved in one’s own motivation (Drafke and Kossen, 2002:273). Green’s belief system of motivation, Glanz’s CARE model for motivating employees, Lindner’s approach to understanding employee motivation, and Nelson’s ten ways to motivate today’s employees are some newer approaches to employee motivation.
1.4 Need and importance of study The purpose of this study is to describe the importance of certain factors in motivating employees, specifically, the study sought to describe the ranked importance following motivation factors job security, sympathetic help with personnel problems, personal loyalty to employees, interesting work, good working condition, tactful discipline, good wages, promotion and growth in the organization, feeling of being one, and full appreciation of work done. Motivation is employees’ tool. This study is one such attempt and therefore it is important as it helps to develop and improve the motivation to bring in balance between the work and life which helps the Woory Automotives India to achieve its goals and targets. This research mainly deals with the employee satisfaction on motivational measures of the company.

3.1 Introduction Motivation is a psychological process that gives behavior purpose and a direction predisposition to behave in a purposive manner to achieve specific, unmet needs an internal drive to satisfy unsatisfied need and the will to achieve. Motivation is operationally defined as the inner force that drives individuals and groups to accomplish personnel and organizational goals. The job of manager in the work place is to get things done through employees. To do this, the manager should be able to motivate employees. In spite of enormous research basic as well as applied, the subject of motivation is not clearly understood and more often than not poorly practiced. To understand motivation one must understand human nature itself. And there lies problem. Human nature can be very simple, yet very complex too. An understanding and appreciation of this is a prerequisite to effective employee motivation in the work place and therefore effective management and leadership.
3.2 Managing Human Resources
40
“Human resource management is the use of several activities to ensure that human resources are managed effectively for the benefit of the individual, society and the business (Schuler, 1998:122)”. Managing human resources effectively has become a fundamental for companies in today’s business world. Human resources management positively affects lower-level employees through: improved productivity, improved quality of their work life, increased company’s legal compliance, gained competitive advantages and assured workforce. Businesses today have entered a new era in the relationship between the companies themselves and their employees. The companies can no longer see their employees as either their loyal family members or as easily replaceable company resources. In this new era, employees need to be respected and like to be treated as valuable human capital, as even more important than the company’s financial capital. Employees are now becoming the main source of a company’s competitive advantage. Therefore, how a company treats its employees increasingly determines whether a company is going to thrive or even to survive (Lawler, 2003:3). As Lawler says, “in the twenty-first century, treating people right is not an option; it is a necessity”. In other words, the way a company manages its workforce determines its ability to establish and maintain a competitive advantage over other companies. In the present competitive job market, the only differentiator between competitors is the quality of the people working in the organization (Whiteley, 2002:24). To retain and develop an organization’s human resources in order to gain competitive advantage is one of the core themes in human resources literature. A well-managed company can retain and motivate its employees and hence has the following advantages, reduced turnover, increased productivity, reduced absenteeism, increased revenue and improved performance. Companies need to attract and retain talented employees therefore understanding what motivates employees has become an essential requirement for today’s managers. As Hughes 41
(2003:3) states in Women in Business: “There’s often a single element that differentiates companies with cohesive teams from those suffering high rates of dissatisfaction and turnover”. That key factor is motivation – an important aspect of successful management that can both maximize productivity and foster a positive corporate culture.
3.3 Motivation Motivation in terms like motives needs wants drives desires wishes incentives. Motivation we have to examine three term motive, motivating, and motivation and their relationship. Motive A motive is an inner state that energizes activities or mores and that directs behavior to words goal Motivating Motivating is a term which implies that one person in the organization engage in action by ensuring that channel to satisfy the motive becomes available and accessible to the individual in addition to channelizing the strong motives in direction that is satisfying to both organization and employees Motivation It is energizer of action motivating is the channelization and activation of motives motivation is work behavior itself motivation is complex process
42
3.3.1 Motivation defined Everyone has motives that are inspired by certain factors that encourage the desire to enhance performance (Kressler, 2003:1). Motive literally means the mainspring and the rationale behind any action. The Word motivation is derived from the Latin word ‘movere’, which means ‘to move’. Motivation has been defined as: an internal drive to satisfy an unsatisfied need (Higgins 1994:2) a predisposition to behave in a purposeful manner to achieve specific, unmet needs; the psychological forces that determine the direction of a person’s behavior in an organization, a person’s level of effort, and a person’s level of persistence in the fact of obstacles; the force an individual has that accounts for the direction, level and persistence of his or her effort expended at work (Schernerhorn et al., 2003:102) and the processes that account for an individual’s intensity and persistence of effort toward attaining a goal. The concept of motivation overlaps with the concept of morale, meaning the extent to which the employee feels positive or negative about his or her work (Gary, 2004:123). The level of motivation varies between individuals and within individuals at different times and in different situation.
Definitions Motivation is process of stimulating people to action to accomplish desired goals. - Scott Motivation can also be de fined as the cognitive decision making process through which the individual chooses described out comes and sets in motion inaction appropriate to their achievement. - Edward Tolman Motivation is process that starts with psychological or physiological deficiency or need that activities behavior a drive that is aimed good incentive. 43
- Fredluthan Motivation is ability to initiate and maintain intended behavior and engage from it when necessary can be embedded even there is no rational reason that should prevent the individual from performing. - Kuhl 3.3.2 Source of Motivation All motivation ultimately comes from within a person, In other words, all motivation is selfmotivation. Freemantly (2001:53) interviewed one of the team leaders at a medical care insurance who said, “I am self-motivated….. I find it stimulating when I am doing new things I have never done before. I like to use my brain. I dislike doing the same things day in and day out; repetitive work”. The CEO of Finlay Commercial Real Estate Company in South Africa, Linette Finlay, points out that motivation comes when the employees are able to see the purpose and reason for the direction in which the company is heading and can recognize their roles in the business process. Freemantle emphasizes that people are already motivated. However, differences exist because we are motivated more or less as a result of the ups and downs in life and what we encounter in the world that is beyond our control. Furthermore, if a person is de-motivated, it is because that a person’s mind chooses to be de-motivated whether consciously or subconsciously. Motivation is therefore about what a person wants and about his emotional state, which drives him in the direction of achieving what he wants. Source of motivation can be intrinsic or extrinsic. Intrinsically motivated behavior is behavior that is performed for one’s own sake and extrinsically motivated behavior is performed to acquire rewards or to avoid punishment. A manager can thus try to stimulate the employee’s intrinsic motivation, but cannot create the intrinsic motivation for that employee. This implies that, for 44
example, a manager should rather try to find out what factors will drive the employee to smile at the customer, than simply tell the employee to smile at the customer.
3.3.3 Reason for Employees’ lack of Motivation in today’s world Managers today complain that their employees are no longer motivated to work. However, it is often the managers and organizational practices that are the problem, not the employees. When there is a lack of motivation, the problem usually lies in one of the following areas: poor selection, unclear goals, an inadequate performance-appraisal system, unsatisfactory reward system or the manager’s inability to communicate the appraisal and reward systems to the employees properly (Robbins, 2003:36) A lack of motivation occurs when the employees see a weakness in one of three relationships. The first of these is the relationships between the employees’ effort and their performance. Manager must make sure that the employees believe that if they exert maximum effort in performing their jobs, it will be recognized it their performance appraisal. However, in most cases, the employees do not believe that their efforts will be recognized. If this is the case, it could lead to a lack of motivation. Secondly, the relationship between the employees’ performance and organization rewards is important. Managers must make sure that the employees believe that if they get a performance appraisal, it will lead to organizational rewards. Many employees see this relationship as weak because the organization does not give rewards just on their performance, so there is a lack of motivation.
45
The third important relationship is the one between the rewards received and the rewards desired. The managers must know whether the rewards the employees receive are the ones they desire. Some employees might want a promotion but instead get a pay rise or vice versa. Sometime the managers assume that all employees want the same reward and so fail to notice the motivational effects of individualizing rewards. If this is the case, employees’ motivation is likely to suffer. Thus to keep employees motivate, managers must strengthen these three relationships. If any or all of these three relationships are weak, the employees’ efforts are likely to suffer. When these relationships are strong, the employees tend to be motivated, so the company is likely to gain competitive advantages through human resources. Motivation needs to be long lasting and reinforced by rewards and praise. Motivation needs to be maintained by mangers to ensure a high level of performance and productivity and to create a working environment where employees will have positive attitudes, commitment towards their work and most importantly, the belief that they are not only valued but of crucial interest to the company.
3.4 Motivational Theories. The theories of motivation attempt to explain people’s behavior. They provide understanding to both the managers and the employees of how to motivate others; how others are trying to motivate a person and how that person can engage more in his or her own motivation effort and others’ efforts in trying to motivate him or her (Drafke and Kossen, 2002:273) The topics of motivation and satisfaction have been studied by industrial-organizational psychologists for several decades, but progress has been slow for several reasons. Firstly, work motivation and satisfaction have been considered to be relatively independent. However, it has been
46
found that the related theories have only focused on specific aspects. Lastly, both motivation and satisfaction are highly complicated (Locke and Latham 1990:3) Interest in studying work motivation was stimulated in large part by the Hawthorne studies conducted by Frederick Taylor in the late 1930s. These studies investigated the effect of working conditions on employee productivity. The finding in these studies was that employees are not motivated by money only and that employee behavior is linked to their attitudes. After the publication of Hawthorne studies’ results, the needs and motivation of employees became the primary focus of mangers and researchers. The concepts of motivation were developed mostly in the 1950s. Several new models of work motivation emerged, which collectively has been referred to as content theories. They all aim to identify factors associated with motivation. Theories developed in this era are Maslow’s need hierarchy theory and McClelland’s theory of needs, which was firstly introduced by Murray. While Maslow and McClelland focused on the role of individual differences in motivation, Herzberg’s hygiene theory studied how work activities and the nature of the job can influence motivation and performance. Subsequently, Hackman and Oldham have extended the research to job design, motivation and job performance, while others focus on task-based intrinsic and extrinsic factors in work motivation (Steers et all., 2004:381) In the beginning of the 1960s a new approach to work motivation, called process theory emerged. It focused on the processes underlying work motivation. Process theorists see work motivation from a dynamic point of view and search for causal relationships related to human behavior in the workplace. Central to process theory is a series of cognitive theories that attempt to understand the thought processes that people have when determining how to behave in the workplace. The best known of the cognitive theories is probably the expectancy theory derived from the early work of Lewin and Tolman. Vroom presented the first systematic formulation of 47
expectancy theory. Porter and Lawler then expanded Vroom’s work to recognize the importance of individual differences and linked job effort to job performance. A number of significant cognitive theories, each with its own focus, have been developed since the 1960s, for example Adam’s equity theory (Steers et al., 2004:382). Goal-setting theory also emerged in the late 1960s. Research showed that goal specificity, goal difficulty and goal commitment are closely related to task performance. Locke and Latham also proposed a formal theory of goal setting. Finally, leading researchers such as Bandura developed significant theories focusing on the role of social cognition and self efficacy on behavior and job performance. All of these theories, however, have limitations and shortcomings. Some are still useful, while some are not applicable in today’s world.
3.5 Motivating Individuals and Groups at Work Work motivation theorists examine the factors that energies direct and sustain work related behavior. They aim to understand which conditions encourage people to invest energy in their work, which the activities people like to focus their efforts on and the factors that make people persist with their efforts over time. This has resulted in the development of various work motivation models. These models focus mainly on individuals’ needs, their own independent goals and expectations or their personal desired outcomes. They are used to understand the processes underlying the behavior of the individual as separate agents. However, employees are not driven by personal considerations only. Employees nowadays work more in teams than they did before, which involves supporting each other to achieve common goals instead of focusing on personal achievement. Employee motivation is adapted to the needs, goals, expectations and rewards of the team or the organization where the employees work (Ellemers et al., 2004:460) As Ellemers mention, “As organization
48
continue to move toward group-based systems, research on motivation within groups is increasingly important”. The proportion of people working in teams has steadily increased in the past few decades. Team work may offer opportunities for job enrichment, give autonomy to employees, decrease the workload of supervisors and enhanced performance on difficult or complicated tasks. However, there are also disadvantages to employees working in teams. People tend to exert less effort when performing a collective task than when they perform the same task individually. This phenomenon is called the Ringelmann effect or ‘social loafing’ and is presumably because of loss of motivation. Solutions for social loafing involve making the work situation less social by treating the team members as individuals. This can be done by making each team member’s contribution identifiable or by helping the individuals to see how their contribution to the team can offer them personal valued outcomes.

4. Introduction Motivated employees are needed in our rapidly changing work place. Motivated employees help organization survive. Motivated employees are more productive. To be effective managers need to understand what motivates employees within the context of the roles they perform. Of all the functions a manager performs, motivating employees is arguably the most complex. This is due in part, to the fact that what motivate employee’s changes constantly.

Table 1 -B
But when we compare the degree of opinion between the age group with the test of Post Hoc Tests or Multiple comparisons we found that there are significant between the age between 20-30 and 4050 in company working condition. The significant value is .048, which is less than the table value i.e., 0.05 (highlighted in table 1-C). This clearly says the opinion of age between 20-30 and 40-50 is 58
not the same in working condition of the company. The mean performance (table 1a) of age between 20-30 and 40-50 are 4.7269 and 5.0000 respectively. The age group of 40-50 has better opinion of the working condition of the company than age group 20-30. It is depicted it the chart 1-A.

Table 5-B
Through the ANNOVA test we analysis the motivation level of people who are working in various departments, we come to know that there are significant different between various department on Company related information, Working condition and Motivational level of the employees. The significant values are .035, .001and .005 (Table 5-B). The mean values for these are IMG 4.8429, 72
production 4.4643, Control 4.6071 SMD 4.8000 and Actuator 4.8000. Here we see that IMG has highest positive value and the least is production. The mean value of the working condition shows that Actuator has the highest value of 5.000 and the least mean value is Production. Whereas the motivation level IMG and Production the mean value is the same 5.00 and control and SMD the mean value is the same 4.88 each and the least mean value is for Actuator with value of 4.87 (Table 5-A).

* The mean difference is significant at the .05 level.
From the post Hoc Method when we compare the category below-5000 with other categories there is significant value of .014, which is below the table value .05 (Table 6-C). The salary group below5000 is highly motivated to undergo training and development but rests of the categories are less appreciative training and development. FINDINGS The motivational level of the company employees is very good on matters of level on
Company Related Information, Working Conditions, Compensation and Benefits, Employee Relations Training and Development, Relationship between HRD and Employees and Motivation level of the employees (charts 5-11) Employees Relation, Human Resource Department and personal development of the company are at its best (charts 8, 10.11). Age wise comparison shows that, all thee age groups of the same opinion that the level of
Company Related Information, Working Conditions, Compensation and Benefits, Employee Relations Training and Development, Relationship between HRD and Employees and Motivation level of the employees are very good (Table 1-A and 1-B). 85
When we compare the degree of opinion between the age group with the test of Post Hoc Tests or Multiple comparisons we found that there are significant between the age between 20-30 and 40-50 in company working condition. The significant value is .048, (highlighted in table 1-C). This clearly says the opinion of age between 20-30 and 40-50 is not the same on working condition of the company. The mean performance (table 1-A) of age between 20-30 and 40-50 are 4.7269 and 5.0000 respectively. The age group of 40-50 has better opinion of the working condition of the company than age group 20-30. The mean performances of male and female are 4.7826 and 4.4898 for company relate information and 4.74 and 4.48 (Table 2 A) for Relationship between HRD and employees respectively. From this value females are showing less motivation than their counter part males who are giving good response about motivation in matters of company related information and Relationship between HRD and employees.
The mean value of Plus Two categories shows that the working condition and motivation of
the employees is the highest with value of 4.8214 and 5.000 respectively. Whereas the mean value of the diploma holders is least among the categories of qualification, with value of 4.5694 and 4.87 (Table 3- A) respectively compare with other groups.
The mean values of Under Graduate and Post Graduate are 4.7604 and 5.000 respectively.
The post graduate group is highly appreciative the working condition of the factory (Chart 3-C).
There is no significant difference is found between the age groups in motivation level on
Company Related Information, Working Conditions, Compensation and Benefits, Employee Relations Training and Development, Relationship between HRD and Employees and Motivation level of the employees ( Table 4-A and 4-B).
86
The motivation level of people who are working in various departments, we come to know that there are significant different between various department on Company related information, Working condition and Motivational level of the employees (5-B).
The mean values for these are IMG 4.8429, production 4.4643, Control 4.6071 SMD 4.8000
and Actuator 4.8000. Here we see that IMG has highest positive value and the least is production. The mean value of the working condition shows that Actuator has the highest value of 5.000 and the least mean value is Production. Whereas the motivation level IMG and Production the mean value is the same 5.00 and control and SMD the mean value is the same 4.88 each and the least mean value is for Actuator with value of 4.87 (Table 5-A, 5-A, 5-B, and 5-C)
The mean values show that people who draw salary group 10001 and above has better
appreciation of the working condition of the company with the value of 4.9375. The salary category of 50001 to 7000 has less appreciation of the working condition with leas mean value of
4.6354. (Table 6A).
The salary category below-5000 is highly appreciative of training development of the company with mean value of 4.97 and lest mean value for the group 50001-7000 with mean value of 4.71(Table 6A, Charts 6-A and 6B).
Suggestion The age group of 40-50 has better opinion of the working condition of the company than age group 20-30. So the newly inducted and younger ones of the company should motivate them with job security, good career growth, sense of pride in the company, utilizing their skill and ability and above all motivate them to understand the company objectives. Females are showing less motivation than their counter part males who are giving good 87
response about motivation in matters of company related information and Relationship between HRD and employees. Motivated female supervisor can motivate the female workers in this regards.
The company has many diploma holders, by Instill an inspiring purpose and Providing
recognition, they will be motivated highly.
The salary category below-5000 is highly appreciative of training development of the
company. So training must be given not only work related but also career guidance, counseling, pressure handling, conflict solving etc for the whole personal development.
HRD must undertake motivational programme to the employee level either monthly or bi-
monthly to keep the entire workers to know the company objectives, vision, problems and above all to give total loyalty to the management.
The mean value shows that the overall motivation level of the company is very good, this
gives advantage for the company to introduce team work.
Conclusion It is a truism that the world is going through enormous changes. The advancement of technology has brought changes to the way business is done in every aspect. Employees are no longer just one of the inputs companies use to produce; they are important assets that generate profits for the company. To adapt to these changes, managers need new ways to manage their employees. Formerly most employees were satisfied if their basic needs were met. In today’s world employees want more. Since employees are a company’s most important resource, satisfying and retaining employees has become a major focus for managers. To do this effectively, mangers must keep their employees motivated, so that valuable employees stay in the company and perform at their best. 88
