Introduction
The traits of jobs are considered to have an effect on stress and well-being at work. The
two factors that collectively defines how stressful a job is are the demands of the job and the
extent of control over own activities (Vermaseren, 2017). Jobs with high demands and limited
control can be considered as a high strain and may have an increased risk of dissatisfaction of
jobs,stress etc.
This case study will examine a research to address the relationship between job traits and
job satisfaction in all Belgian banks at specific level. It will discuss the advantages and
disadvantages of sample size to investigate the employees and factors that need to be considered
in decision on sample size. It will also provide knowledge about current method of sampling to
find out relationship between job characteristics and job satisfaction and the secondary data set
that can be used to represent the sample.
1.Advantages and disadvantages of using samples size and factors to be considered on sample
size
Advantages of using samples in Belgian Banks are as follows-:
Cost reduction - As the total employees that are working in Belgium banks are about 69,000 and
questioning all these employees would be more expensive and complicated. So, with use of
sampling technique instead of using whole population(69000 employees) for collection of data ,a
small sample of merely 15000 employees was taken to reduce both cost and complexity for the
research of Belgium Banks (Rahman, 2017).
Faster speed - Use of sampling gives more amount time to researcher for collecting data so it is
quite faster. The speed of data collection will be fast due to sample method used in Belgium
banks and also researchers will get enough time to collect data.
Detailed information - By making use of large sample size in Belgium bank the researchers and
investigators can investigate a population of employees at Belgium banks to provide a detailed
and comprehensive information.
Accuracy of data collected is high - Due to limited area of operations it will permit a high
degree of accuracy. So, the results of sampling at Belgium banks turn out to be accurate.
Segmentation – The measurement of large sample size allows division of sample into segments
that share similar characteristics. To provide more deeper and deeper information regarding
population segmentation is necessary.
