A Study of Employee Job Satisfaction and Its Impact on Employee Retention at Neel Metal Products Limited, Sitarganj

Abstract

Holding on to talent has become one of India's auto-component companies' more pointed problems with the actual 
costs from attrition on the shop floor involving training, downtime and quality. The purpose of this study is to explore 
the relationship between job satisfaction and intention to quit in workers of Neel Metal Products Limited, Sitarganj 
(Uttarakhand). The goal was twofold: to quantify satisfaction on key aspects and to determine if satisfaction correlates 
with retention. It was a descriptive and cross-sectional design which is based on the use of structured questionnaire 
to the shop floor staff and executives on the five-point likert scale. Based on a working hypothesis that satisfaction 
and retention are positively linked, compensation and growth opportunities are viewed as most salient. Data analysis 
was carried out by using SPSS (correlation and multiple regression). The results showed a significant positive 
relationship between overall satisfaction and retention intention, highlighting pay fairness and career development as 
key factors, and supervision and work environment as supportive factors. The findings indicate that more factors are 
involved in a person's decision to stay with the unit than just compensation, which is why it is important to look at a 
package of fair reward, growth and recognition.
