Abstract

The purpose of this conceptual paper is to provide an understanding on career satisfaction and its bearing on the employee and the organisation. Career satisfaction as a variable is an important aspect to the employee because this factor decides the professional satisfaction, inherent satisfaction and work satisfaction of an employee on the whole. Satisfied employees perform well in their job and achieve better productivity. Employee satisfaction and its contributing factors are very significant to most organisations because higher productivity will ensure better revenue to the organisation.
