Personal Job Satisfaction

More than three quarters of Czechs are satisfied with the level of interesting aspects of their jobs and with relationships between people at their workplace. More than a half of employees also were satisfied with the care received from their employer, with material possessions and equipment at the workplace, with the way their work is organised, with its intensity, with their line-manager, and with the extent to which their expertise is used.

On the other hand, feelings of discontent prevailed in the prospects of increased salary or promotion to a better job and also on current salary. Compared to 2002 when respondents were asked the same question, satisfaction of Czech people with their jobs increased in almost all surveyed aspects. The results also show that entrepreneurs are relatively more satisfied with their work than employees.
