MAIN BODY
1. Various factors which motivate employees to work
There are many various factors that helps in motivating employees to work efficiently and
sometimes motivation works more than money or any other benefit. The main factors that help in
motivating employees are :
Feeling a sense of meaning and purpose in their work- It is important to influence or motivate
employees so that they can do their work properly and helps in accomplishing goals and
motivating employees. A leader plays an important role in convincing people to give their best so
that they should work hard and develop their skills so that targets can be achieved and
organization can increase its productivity by generating more profit. It is essential that employees
should understand their work and do the work with interest so that they will enjoy and it will
help in reducing absenteeism (Arijanto and Taufik, 2017). Employees should know what is the
meaning and purpose of completing the task and why it is important to achieve goals of the
organization.
The performance of employees depends upon how much they are interested in work,
whether they are understanding what work they have to do or not. It is essential that they should
properly understand the task and they should learn new things or take trainings on time so that it
will be easy to work. Various research have done and from the research it has been found that it
is important to influence employees to work because they are the only source for achieving
organizational goals and it will increase the productivity (Damayanti and Dewi, 2020). If
employees are satisfied, their all the needs are fulfilled then they will give their best in
accomplishing targets of the company. In the IOM electronics company this factors plays an
important role in fulfilling objectives, the leader of the company manages all the activities in the
company and he takes steps to motivate employees so that they can perform well and contribute
in achieving goals of the organization.

Working in a positive company culture – It is necessary that employees get safe and
healthy environment to complete their work and this will help the organization in increasing
productivity of employees as well as of the company. Managers should try to create good culture
in the company so that employees can be satisfied and they will give their best in accomplishing
targets of the organization. In the company there should be no discrimination among employees
on the basis of gender, caste, religion, income, or any other issue. All the workers should be
treated equally, this will help in creating good environment in the company and this will satisfy
the employees as well as customers (Fitrio, Budiyanto and Agustedi, 2020).
In the IOM electronics company all the employees are treated equally and there is no
discrimination among workers related to any issue. The culture of the organization is its
personality, it means if the culture of the company is good then more employees will want to
work with the company and if culture is not good then no one will like to work with the
company. So, managers should take necessary decisions regarding how to motivate employees
and provide them good environment so that they will enjoy working in the company and this will
build the interest among workers.
Opportunities for learning and development in the workplace – In the company employees
should be provided training so that they can learn new things and develop their skills. If training
is given to employees then there will be many opportunities for workers, this will be beneficial
for the company as it will help them in creating good image in the market and customers will be
attracted. As technology is changing day by day so it is important to provide training to the
workers so that they can work efficiently and contribute in achieving goals of the company.
This is also one of the factor that helps in motivating employees and increase sales of the
company by manufacturing good quality products. The company provides learning opportunities
to employees so that they can perform better and contribute in achieving goals of the company.
As there are more opportunities for the company to grow or expand its business. In the IOM
electronics company workers are provided training so that they can perform better and this helps
company in building good image in the company (Gochhayat, Giri and Suar, 2017).
2.Positive and negative factors employees experience as a result for their job roles
Workers experience can be refer to as the perception of an employee regarding the company,
work in the organization, behaviour of other employees, culture or environment of the company
and whether they like or not. When an employee enters into the company, orientation program is

being arranged so that employees get familiar with the environment of the company. The
behaviour of employees vary from each other, some workers adjust with the situation and some
employees did not adjust and they want all the facilities (Lebrón and et.al., 2018).
Positive factors that an employee experience such as, the behaviour of colleagues and other
members, quality of leadership, how an employee is being treated. These are some positive
factors that is experienced by an employee while working in the company. As a worker enter in
the organization they experience many things which sometimes motivate them to work with the
company and sometimes demotivate that this is not the right place to do the work. When
employees work in an organization they meet many people of different types like, their
behaviour, personality, way of talking or working in a different way. So, an employee
experiences a lot of things and they have to manage all the things (Levine and et.al., 2020).
So, in positive experience it includes how an employee interacts with others and build
relationship with other people working in the company. If the employee builds good relationship
with other people in the company, it will be a positive experience for worker and it will help
them in completing their work on time. Another factor that n employee experience is quality of
leadership as if a person has good leadership qualities then it will help the company in increasing
productivity and a worker will get more opportunities.
Work is given in groups and a leader is made, who gives instructions to other persons for
how to complete the work and what are the strategies that can be applied so that organizational
goals can be achieved. Another factor is work environment of the company, all the employees
want that safe and healthy environment should be provided in organization. Good environment
helps in satisfying employees and boost their confidence to work efficiently (Urama, Nyam and
Ogwuche, 2019). This creates good reputation of company in the market and helps in attracting
more employees to join the company.
In the IOM electronics there is good and safe working environment which is provided to
employees so that they can perform well and it will help in improving overall performance of the
company.
Negative factors that an employee experience as a result of their roles that are performed,
wages are low, dissatisfaction due to work, environment is not good, personal issues, not getting
respect. These are some negative factors which an employee experience while they are working
in the company. As in some organizations there is poor communication due to not having proper

structure and this affects workers as they are not getting proper guidelines what they have to do.
So, managers should take steps to improve communication in the company. The another factor is
wages are too low as initially all the employees are having low wages which demotivates them to
work. Another factor is that in some companies proper training is not given to employees and
due to which they are not able to perform well and there are less opportunities available for
future development of employees as well as for the company. In IOM electronics negative
factors for workers are, there is less opportunity available for employees for future growth and
wages are also low. So, managers should try to improve these factors so that workers can be
satisfied and performance can be improved (Wahda, 2017).
