Abstract

Job satisfaction indicates the extent to which people are satisfied with their jobs. Some people enjoy their work and consider it the focus of their lives, while some do not feel good about their work and do it only because they have to. Studying the causes and important consequences of employees' attitudes towards job satisfaction is one of the main aspects of industrial-organizational psychology. Many studies have been conducted to identify the factors affecting job satisfaction and its effect on the main factor of productivity, namely employee productivity. The present article is descriptive-analytical, and its information has been collected in the form of libraries and documents.

The purpose of this article is to identify the factors affecting job satisfaction and the effect of these factors on employee productivity with a review approach. Based on the results obtained, it can be said that people's satisfaction with their jobs is directly related to productivity. To better explain this relationship, it is worth mentioning the role of the huge and valuable capital of human resources in productivity. People are the center of productivity. Undoubtedly, paying attention to their needs and moving towards satisfying these needs is necessary and essential.
