The mediating role of Intrinsic Motivation between Islamic Work Ethics and Employee Job Satisfaction

This study was conducted to investigate the mediating role of Intrinsic Motivation between Islamic Work Ethics and Employee Job Satisfaction. The study found three direct relationships and one mediating relationship. All the direct relationships were significantly related with each other and the mediating variable showed partial relationship. A more participative study can add more effective results, as well as concrete focus on one sector either public or private, can give a closer picture. 100 questionnaires were distributed among the full time employees of public and private organizations of Pakistan. 80 valid questionnaires were received. A convenience sampling technique was used to collect the data. Implications, limitations and suggestions for further research and practitioners are discussed in this study. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
