A Comparative Study to Determine the Impact of Employee Benefits Package on Job Satisfaction and Organizational Commitment
Abstract
In this paper, scholars attempted to explore the relationship between employee benefits package and organizational commitment and job satisfaction, and comparatively evaluate whether employee benefits package has a greater impact on organizational commitment or job satisfaction. For this study, educational sector of Pakistan is selected because benefits and pay packages differ between employee categories and could potentially lead to disagreements among employees when remuneration packages are compared. According to results, it has found that employee's job satisfaction is linked to employee's benefits package. Using a conceptual framework, this study examined the impact of employees’ benefits package on their organizational commitment and job satisfaction. The data were collected through a questionnaire with sample size of 200 employees of higher educational institutions including head of the departments, faculty members, and administrative staff using stratified random sampling technique. SPSS 27 was used to analyze the data using reliability, validity, correlation, and regression measures. The data analysis indicates that employee benefits positively impact both organizational commitment and job satisfaction. Employee benefits package has a greater impact on organizational commitment than job satisfaction. It means that a low significant correlation exists between employee benefits package and job satisfaction as compared with organizational commitment.
