Employee Job Satisfaction: The External Forces Influencing Employee Attitudes 

According to the SHRM 2011 Employee Job Satisfaction Survey Report, employee job satisfaction in the U.S. reached its peak in 2009—possibly because employees were especially grateful for their jobs at the height of the recession—but since then has been dropping slightly each year. To a large extent, the overall trend toward a decline in satisfaction across industries is likely due to forces that individual employers may have difficulty controlling. This issue of Workplace Visions examines these external forces and discusses how organizations positively influence their employees’ job satisfaction.
