The influence of work salary and working hours on employee job satisfaction

Abstract

With the continuous development of the human resource management system, the academic circle pays more and more attention to the research of employee satisfaction analysis. As one of the important factors affecting corporate performance, employee satisfaction has a significant impact on fully mobilizing employee enthusiasm. This article uses the China Family Panel Studies (CFPS) database to explore the impact of working hours characteristics and work salary characteristics on the job satisfaction of employees in stateowned enterprises and private enterprises through ordered logit regression methods. The results found that: weekly working hours and annual work income have a significant impact on these two types of employees. However, in-kind benefits and cash benefits only have a significant impact on employees of private enterprises. The one-way commute time only has a significant impact on the employees of state-owned enterprises. On this basis, this article puts forward two suggestions to improve the pertinence of welfare, strengthen the role of welfare incentives, and the government to formulate a labor standard law related to working hours, in order to improve employee job satisfaction.
