Factors affecting the job satisfaction of construction engineers: evidence from Jordan
Satisfaction of construction engineers affects the development of construction industry, and plays an important role in enhancing their productivity. In this paper, the researchers aim to determine the most significant factors affecting overall job satisfaction of construction engineers in Jordan and to develop a model that measures their satisfaction. To collect the required data, a questionnaire was developed and distributed among engineers working in different construction sites. Cronbach, Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin, and multicollinearity tests were conducted to attest the questionnaire's reliability and validity. Also, stepwise multiple regression analysis and hypotheses testing were used to verify the predictive factors of job satisfaction. As per the survey results, working environment, satisfaction with coworkers, pay and benefits, and satisfaction with supervision are the most significant factors out of ten affecting overall job satisfaction of construction engineers. Accordingly, a proposed model was developed to measure their job satisfaction using these four significant factors, and subsequently, was validated by interviewing experienced construction engineers. The proposed model can be useful in keeping track of job satisfaction of construction engineers not only in Jordan but also in other countries, especially those with similar culture.
