Introduction

INTRODUCTION
Every management tries to coordinate various factors of production in such a way that their contribution is maximum in achieving organisation goals. The performance of non-human factors like machines etc. will depend upon the level of technology and competence of those who use them. To improve the overall performance in a business it become essential to increase the efficiency of human being. The performance of person depend upon two factor (i) ability to do work (ii) motivation. Motivation is an important factor which encourages person to give their best performance and help in reaching enterprise goals. A strong positive motivation will be enable the increased output of employee but a negative motivation will reduce their performance. DEFINING MOTIVATION What is Motivation? May be the place to begin is to say what motivation isnt many people incorrectly view motivation as personal trait-that is, some have it and others dont. in practise in experienced managers often label employee who seem to lack motivation as lazy. Such label assumes that an individual is always lazy or is lacking in motivation our knowledge of motivation tells us that this just isnt true. What we know is that motivation is the result of the interaction of the individual and the result of the interaction of the individual and the situation. Certainly individuals differ in their basic motivational drive. Today virtually all people practitioner and scholars have their own definition of motivation one or more of the following words are included desires wants, wishes, aims, goals, needs, drives, motives and incentives. Technically the term motivation can be traced to the lain word mover which means to to move. DEFINITION OF MOTIVATION 1. According to Berelson and Steiner, A motive is an inner state that energies, activates or moves and directs channels behaviour goals 2. According to Lillis, It is the stimulation of any emotion or desire operating upon ones will and promoting or driving it to action. 3. According to Encyclopedia of Management, Motivation refers to degree of readiness of an organism to pursue some designated goal and implies the determination of the nature and locus of the forces, including the degree of readiness 4. According to Likert, It is the core of management which shows that every human being gives him a sense of worth in face to face groups which are most important to him. A supervisor should strive to treat individuals with dignity and a recognition of their personal worth 5. According to Dubin, Motivation is the complex of forces starting and keeping a person at work in an organisation 6. According to Vance, Motivation implies any emotion or desire which so conditions ones will that the individual is properly lead into action

NATURE OF MOTIVATION
Motivation is a psychological phenomena which generates within an individual. A person feels the lack of certain needs to satisfy to satisfy which he feels working the need satisfying ego motivates a person to do better than he normally does. From definition given earlier the following inferences can be derived. 1. Motivation is an inner feeling which energies a person to work more? 2. The emotions or desires of a person prompt him for doing a particular work. 3. There are unsatisfied needs of a person which disturb his equilibrium 4. There are dormant energies in a person which are activated by channelising them into action. 5. A person moves to fulfil his unsatisfied by conditioning his energies. 6. Motivation is a inner psychological force which activates and compels the person to behave in a particular manner. 7. Motivation process is influenced by personality traits learning abilities, perception and competence of an individual. 8. Highly motivated employee works more efficiently and his level of production tends to be higher than others. 9. Motivation originates from the needs and wants of an individual. It is a tension of lacking, something in his mind which forces him to work efficiently. 10. Motivation is also a process of stimulating and challelisng an energy of an individual for achieving set goals. 11. Motivation also plays a crucial role in determining the level of performance highly motivated employee will get higher satisfaction his personality, needs, competence and other factors. 12. Motivating force and it degree may differ from individual to individual depending on his personality, needs, competence and other factors. 13. The process of motivation helps the manager in analysing and understanding human behaviour and finding out that how an individual can be inspired to produce desirable working behaviour. 14. Motivation may be positive as well as negative. Positive motivation includes incentives, rewards and other benefits while negative motivation implies some punishment, fear, use of force etc. 15. The process of motivation contribution to and boosts up the morale of the employee and high degree of motivation may lead to high morale.

TYPES OF MOTIVATION
When a manager wants to get more work from his subordinates then he will have to motivate them for improving their performance. They will either be offered incentive for more work, or may be in the space of rewards. Better reports, recognition etc., or he may instill fear them or use force for getting desired work. The following are the types of motivation. 1. Positive Motivation:- Positive motivation or incentive motivation is based on reward. The workers are offered incentives for achieving the desired goals. The incentive may be the shape of more pay, promotion, recognition of work etc. The employee are offered the incentives and try to improve performance willingly. According to better for placement, high standard of performance information adequate for self control and the participation of the worker as a responsible citizen in the plant community. Positive motivation is achieved by the co-operation of employees and they have a feeling of happiness. 2. Negative Motivation:- Negative or fear motivation is based on force or fear. Fear causes employees to act in a certain way. In case, they to not act accordingly then they may be punished with demotion or lay-offs. The feal acts as a push mechanism. The employees do not willingly cooperate, rather they want to avoid the punishment. Though employees work upto a level where punishment is avoided but this type of motivation causes anger and frustration. This type of motivation generally becomes a causes of industrial unrest. Inspite of the drawbacks of negative motivation, this method is commonly used to achieve desired result. There may be hardly any management which has not used negative motivation at one or the other time.

IMPORTANCE OF MOTIVATION
Motivation is an important part of managing process. A team of highly qualified and motivated employees is necessary for achieving objectives of an organisation. It is only through motivation process. They contribute maximum for accomplishing objectives. Without motivation, they may not have an urge to maintain or improve their efficiency. Importance maintain or improve their efficiency. Importance of motivation in management be judged on the basis of the following factors. 1. Effective use of Resources:- In business, all physical resources are got to be used through human force effective and efficient and efficient use these resources depends on the ability and readiness of work force. Thus team of highly motivated employees greatly help in making optimum use of available resources for achieving objectives. 2. Higher Efficiency:- Motivation is directly related to the level of efficiency highly motivated employees make full use of their energy and other abilities to raise the existing level of efficiency. They produce more as compared to other employees. 3. Accomplishment of Organisational Goals:- As stated earlier, the process of motivation helps in shaping the working behaviour of the employees and making. It desirable for achieving objectives highly motivated employees would make goal directed efforts. They are more committed and cooperative for seeking organisational goals. 4. Reduce Labour Turnover and Absenteeism:- Highly motivated employees are the most important and variable assets of the organisation. They are more loyal and sincere, therefore, they remain punctual and regular in their work schedule and prefer to stay on-the-job for longer period of time. These factors helps in reducing absenteeism and labour turnover. 5. Healthy Industrial Relations:- Motivation is considered as a background good industrial relation effectively motivated employees get more satisfaction and carry high morale which makes them more disciplined. In such a situation, the possibilities of industrial disputes and unrest is reduced to minimum and industrial relations gets improved. 6. Improved Corporate Image:- Motivation also helps in improving an image of organisation, if employees are motivated. They produce more they maintain self-discipline and productive internal environment in the organisation ultimately gives better impression to the outsiders dealing with an organisation and it is image is enhanced. 7. High Performance:- Motivated employees will put maximum efforts for achieving organisational goals. The untapped reservoirs, physical and mental abilities are tapped to the maximum. Better performance will also result in higher productivity. The cost of production can also be brought down if productivity is raised. The employees should be offered more incentives for increasing their performance motivation will act as a stimulant for improving the performance of employees. 8. Acceptability to Change:- The changing social and industrial situation will require changes and improvements in the working of enterprises. There will be a need to introduce new and better methods of work from time to time generally, employees resist changes for fear of an adverse effect on their employment. When the employees are given various

opportunities of development then they can easily adopt to new situations. They will think of positive side of new change and will cooperate with the management. If the employees are satisfied with their work and are not offered better avenues then they will oppose everything suggested by the management. Motivation will ensure the acceptability of new changes by the employees.

Objectives of the Study

OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY


Motivation is an important part of management's function of 'leading'. Though this medium a spirit of dedication is created among the people working in enterprise. In brief following are the objectives of motivation : To build a fire in the employees to do more work. To satisfy the economic, social and psychological needs of the employees so that they could be motivated. To develop the harmonize human relations in the enterprise. To enhance the morale and job satisfaction of employees. To increases the efficiency and team effectiveness of employees. To get the co-operation and team spirit among employees. To establish healthy relationship between labour and management. To get maximum utilization of human resources. To achieve the operated objectives of enterprise. To make organizational changer acceptable. To reduce employee turnover and absenteeism. To create a good image of organization.

PROCESS OF MOTIVATION
The process of motivation means an attempt to know from where it starts and where does it end. The work of motivation is not completed at one go but it is a combination of many steps. Koontz and ODonnell have shown the process of motivation as Need want satisfaction chain in the following way:

Needs

Give rise to

Wants

Which cause

Tensions

Which give rise to

Actions

Which result in

Satisfaction

'NEED WANT SATISFACTION' CHAIN


First of all a man feels the need of something meaning thereby that a desire is born in his mind. When a need become powerful it gets changed into a want. It means that he starts feeling that it should be fulfilled or satisfied. When such thoughts come to his mind, tension takes place. It means that the very thought of it makes him tense. The only way to get rid of this tension is to do some work. Hence, the situation of action is created. When a men acts to remove the tension created by his need which has turned itself into a want, he achieves his objective. In other words he feels satisfaction. Employees are made to realise their needs through motivation and a feeling to achieve them is born in their mind. The managers make available all the facilities for work performance and, finally, the employees achieve their objective by satisfying their needs. After one need is satisfied, the other is born and this chain continues. It must be made clear that the objective of motivation is not only to satisfy the needs of the employees but to achieve successfully the objectives of the organisation. TECHNIQUES OF INCREASE MOTIVATION Financial Motivation Financial motivators may be in the form of more wages and salaries because profit sharing leave with pay, medical reimbursements company paid insurance any of the other thing that may be given to employees for performance be give to employees for performance. The economists and most managers consider money and financial incentives as important motivators behavioural scientist, on the other hand tend to place them low. Neither view is probably right. Money is the most important to people who are young and are raising their families then to those who have aligned at a stage when money needs are

less. Money needs go on changing from time to time. He may like to have a comfortable house later on. For some persons money remains to be motivator and for others it may never be. Non-Financial Motivators These motivators are in the nature of better status, recognition, participation, job security etc. some of these motivators are discussed here:1. Recognition:Every person wants his work to be recognised by his superiors. When he knows that his performance is known to his boss then he will try to improve it more and more. The recognition may be in the form of a word of praise, a latter of appreciation entry in annual confidential report etc. 2. Participation:participation has be considered a good technique for motivation. It implies physical and mental involvements of people in decision making process. They feel important when asked to made suggestions in their field of activity. There is no doubt that the most of the people know the problem they will face and their possible solutions. 3. Status:It refers to a social status of a person and it satisfies egoistic needs. A management may create some status symbol in the organisation. This can be done by way of giving various facilities to the persons. These may be superior furniture carpets on the flood, attachments of peons, personal assistance etc. 4. Competition:In some organisations competition is used as a motivator various persons are given certain objectives and everybody tries to achieve them head of others. They may be praises, apperception letters, financial incentives to those who reach the goals first. The competitions encourage person to improve their performance. 5. Job Enrichment:Job enrichment has been recognised an important motivator by various resources. The job made more important and challenging for the workers, may be given wide latitude in deciding about their work methods. The employee will also perform the management functions of planning and control so far as the work is concerned.

THEORIES OF MOTIVATION
No organisation can succeed without highly motivated and committed team of employees. It is only through thermal other physical resources, like land, building, capital and machine etc. There are some theories by which we can motivate the employees very well. Maslow Hierarchy of need theory This theory has received more attention from the manager than any other theory. Abraham Maslow an eminent us psychologist has classified human need in a logical convenient way that has one important implication for managers. In this theory he has a pointed out and explained that how needs influence human behaviour. Maslow viewed human motivation as a hierarchy of five need ranging from basic physiological needs to the highest need for self actualisation. On of the most popular reffered to theories of motivation is the hierarchy of needs theory developed by psychologist Abraham Maslow (1908-1970) in 1943. Maslow classified human need as under 1. Physical need 2. Safety and security need 3. Social needs 4. Ego needs 5. Self realization need As each these becomes substantially satisfied, the next becomes dominant. In term of diagram the individual moves up the step of the hierarchy. From the stand point of motivation, the theory would say that although no need is ever fully gratified, a substantially satisfied need no longer motivates. So it you want to motivate someone, according to Maslow you need to what level of the hierarchy that person is currently on and focus on satisfying the needs at or above that level. According to Maslow mans needs, having a sequence of domination are arranged in a hierarchical level of importance, as the diagram illustrated below shows:-

Maslows Need Hierarchy Diagram (5) Self expression or Self realization needs Needs for self-assertion excertise Creative expression, achievement etc.

(4) Ego or self-esteem needs Needs for self-esteem and esteem from others, feelings of achievement recognisation appreciation, status, etc.

(3) Social Needs Needs for sociability, informal contacts. Friendly greeting and conversation, sense of belonging, recognition, etc.

(2) Safety and security Needs for security from bodily harm, steady employment and provision for old age, insurance against risk, etc.
(1) Physical needs Needs for feed, water, air, clothing, shelter, etc.

Maslow need hierarchy is widely accepted today in management theory and practice, because it seems to make sense and is easy to understand. This theory of motivation is based on two important assumptions: 1. Each persons needs depend on what he already has only need not yet satisfied can influence behaviour. A satisfied need cannot influence behaviour. 2. Needs are arranged in a hierarchy of important. One of needs is satisfied another emerges and demands satisfaction. He placed all the need in a frame work he called that the hierarchy of needs. This is presented in the figure. Maslow stated that is all of a persons needs are unsatisfied a particular time. The most basic needs will be more pressing than the others. Needs at a lower level must be satisfied before higher level need come into play and only when they are sufficiently satisfied do the next in line become significant. Let us briefly examine each need level. The unsatisfied needs are displayed on the left of figure. Some areas that managers can influence for each of the five needs categories are presented in figure. Manager can have a significant impact in helping employees satisfy needs in each of Maslow categories. At the lowest level are place physical needs, the next higher level is that of safety and security, the next higher level is that of social needs, then ego or self esteem needs appear at the 4 th higher level, then come self-expression self-realisation needs at the top of the hierarchy of needs. 1. Physical Needs Physical needs relate to physiological maintenance of the body. These are basic or primary needs present in all people and must be satisfied to sustain life. The elementary and essential physiological need include food to satisfy hunger, water to quench thirst, oxygen to breathe. 2. Safety and Security Needs For many people, this is a difficult need to satisfy. People who live in earthquake or hurricane zones, or in politically explosive area, can never satisfy their needs for safety & security. Safety needs include protection from physical harm, ill health, economic discusses and the unexpected. From a managerial standpoint, safety needs manifest themselves in attempts to ensure job security and to move towards greater financial support. 3. Social Needs Social needs are related to the social nature of people and to their need for companionship. This level in the hierarchy is a point of departure from the physical or quasi-physical needs of the two previous levels. Non satisfaction in their level of needs may affect the mental health of the individual. 4. Ego or Self-esteem Needs In the hierarchy of needs level when the lower level needs the physical needs the safety and security needs and the social needs have been reasonably satisfied, the ego or self-esteem needs, being of the greatest significance both to the management and the man himself, make their appearance.

Ego or Self-esteem needs of two kinds. 1. Need concerning ones self esteem and esteem from others needs for self-confidence, for independence, for achievement, for initiative, concerned with prestige and respect and individual imparting feeling of worthiness and. 2. Need concerning ones reputation needs for status, needs for recognition, for appreciation, for esteem of others. 5. Self-experience on of Self-realisation Needs Self- expression or self-realisation needs the highest level of needs in the hierarchy of need is the need for fulfillment and self-realisation. These needs is the need influence the behaviour of the individual at all times but they tend to dominate only after all above need physical needs, the safety and security needs, the social needs an the ego or self- esteem have been relationship well satisfied. The two factor theory of motivation Frederick Herzberg advanced a theory of motivation based on a study of need satisfaction and on the reported motivational effects of those satisfactions on 200 engineers and accountants. Herzberg asked the subject of his study to think of times when they felt especially good and especially bad about their jobs. each subject was then asked to describe the conditions that caused those feelings. Based on this research, herzberg reaches the following two conditions. 1. Although employees are dissatisfied by the absence of some; of condition the presence of those conditions does not cause strong motivation. Herzberg called such conditions maintenance factor since they are necessary to maintain minimum level of need satisfaction. The conduct 10 maintenance factors namely. 1. Company policy an administration. 2. Technical supervision. 3. Interpersonal relating with supervisor. 4. Interpersonal relation with peers. 5. Interpersonal relation with subordinates. 6. Salary 7. Job security 8. Personal life 9. Work condition 10. Status 2. Sonic job factors, which Herzberg calls motivators cause high levels of motivation and job satisfaction when present. However the absence of these factors does not prove highly dissatisfying Herzberg described six of these motivational factors. a) Achievement b) Recognition c) Advancement d) The work itself e) The possibility of personal growth f) Responsibility Prior to Herzberg research, manager viewed job satisfaction and dissatisfaction at opposite ends of the same continuum, Herzbergs research

findings introduced the notion of two continuums, if employees are not satisfied they indicate no satisfaction, and not dissatisfaction. Form of the categorized responses, Herzberg concluded that the replies people gave when they felt good about their jobs were signifiantly different from the replies give when they felt bad. As seen in diagram certain characteristics tend to be consistently related to job satisfaction and others to job dissatisfaction.

THEORY X AND THEORY Y


Douglas Mc Gregor puposed two distinct views of human beings on basically negative, labeled theory X and the other basically positive, labeled theory Y. after viewing the way in which manager dealt with employees Mcgregor conducted that a managers view of the nature of human beings is based on a certain grouping of assumptions and that he or the tends to mold his or her behaviour to ward employees according to these assumptions. Under theory X the four assumption held by manager are:1. Employees inherently dislike work and whenever possible will attempt to avoid it. 2. Since employee dislike work they must be corced, controlled or threatened with punishment to achieve goals. 3. Employees will avoid responsibility and seek formal direction whenever possible. In contrast to these negative views about the nature of beings Mcgregor listed four positive assumption that he called theory of Y. 1. Employee can view work as being as natural as rest or play. 2. People will exercise self direction and self-control if they are committed to the objectives. 3. The average person can learn to accept, even seek, responsibility. Theory Y assumes that higher order needs dominate individuals. Mcgregor himself held to the belief that theory Y assumption were more valid than theory X. Therefore he purposed such ideas as participative decision making responsible and challenging jobs and god group relations as approaches that would maximize an employees job motivation.

ALDERFERS FRG THEORY


Clayton Alderfer reformulated Maslows need hierarchy theory. The ERG need theory developed by Alderfer, condenses the five needs given by Maslows into three needs. 1. Existence Needs:The existence needs combine the physiological needs and safety need of Maslows need. These needs include the basic survival of human beings. 2. Relatedness Needs:Relatedness needs, include Maslows social and esteem needs, which are derieved from other people. These include relationship with other people we care about. 3. Growth Needs:These needs are similar to Maslows self-actualidation need. This need involves person making creative efforts to achieve full potential in the existing environments. 1. 2. Maslows need hierarchy follow a might step like progression. The ERG theory on the other hand assumes, that the existence need must be satisfied at the same time. The ERG theory also improves the Maslows theory on the ground that a person does not stay at a certain level untill that need is satisfied. Maslow was of the opinion that a person will move to next level if the need of the previous level are satisfied.

Vrooms Expectancy Theory Victor vroom made an important contribution to the understanding of the concept of motivation and the decision processes that people use to determine how much effort they will expend on their jobs. criticising Herzberg two factors theory he said that a persons motivation towards an action at any time would led to a specific outcome and his personal preference for the outcome. Motivation = Valence expectancy instrumentality 1. Valence:Valence means the attraction (or-repulsion) of an outcome to the individual whenever on individual has preference for a reward valence is the strength of that preference. 2. Expectancy:Expectancy is also reffered to as the effort performance probabilty. It refers to the extent to which the person believes has efforts will lead to the first level of outcome. 3. Instrumentality:Instrumentality refers to the probabilities attacked by the individual to each possible performance outcome alternative just as the individual previously assigned probabilities to various level of effort leading to different level of performance.

This model has been practically applied also in their study of managers. This is a multivariate model which explains the relationship that exists between job attitudes and job performance. This model s based on four basic assumption about human behaviour:(i) As mentioned above it is multivariate model. According to this model individual behaviour is determined by a combination of factors in the individual and in the environment. (ii) Individual are assumed to be rational human beings. (iii) Individual have different needs desires and goals.

Effort:Efforts refers to the amount of energy which person exerts on a job

Value of Reward:First of all people try to figure out whether reward that are likely be received from doing a job will be attractive to them. 3) Perceived effort reward probability:In addition before people put for the any effort they will also try to assets the probability of a certain level of effort leading to desired level of performance. 4) Reward:Performance leads to certain outcomes the shape of two types of reward extrinsic & & intrinsic reward. 5) Satisfaction:Satisfaction will result from both extrinsic and intrinsic reward.

Reinforcement Theory Focus is attention as to what control behaviour. In contrast goal setting which is cognitive approach is initiated by internal events. Reinforcement theory argues that behaviour is reinforced and controlled by external events. The

famous experiments of Pavlov to teach dogs to salivate in response to ringing a bell in a case point of reinforcement theory. What Pavlov did is classical conditioning Based on this Harward Psychologis B.F. skinner did for operant conditioning. Operant condition is voluntary rather than reflective. Operant is active where as classical is passive skinner argued that by rewarding or pleasing a type of behaviour the chances are move that similar behaviour is repeated. Reward must be immediate to get desired response alternatively.

ESSENTIALS OF A SUCCESSFUL MOTIVATIONAL SYSTEM OR PRINCIPLES OF MOTIVATION


According to Koontz and O' Donnell a successful system of motivation must have the following four essential qualities: 1) Productive : The first essential of a successful motivational system is to implement such a system as to increase the efficiency of the subordinates. By following such a system they become more productive. 2) Competitive: The motivational system should create a spirit of competition among the employees so that everybody tries to put in his best effort for the attainment of pre-determined objectives. For example, while determining the time and quality of an particular work if it is announced that the persons achieving this target will be rewarded, all the employees will work with a competitive spirit to get the prize. As a result of this their efficiency will increate. 3) Comprehensive : A system of motivation will be considered if it has the quality of being comprehensive comprehensiveness can be considerate in tow ways. Firstly, a system will be called comprehensive which is applicable equally to all the employees, and secondary a system which satisfies all the top and low hierarchy needs of the employer. 4) Flexible: The system of motivation should be flexible so that it can be changed easily in times of need without any opposition system. Apart from the above there are many other important facts affect the success of motivation system. They are the following: 1) Easy implementation: Motivated system should have the quality of easy implementation 2) Regular motivation: Motivation system provide regular motivation to the employees. It should not be a system which provides motivation for a short span of time but should motivates the employees for a long time. 3) Based on organizational goals:- Motivational system should be directly linked with the goals of the enterprise. In other words, the system should be designed to achieve easily the pre-determined objectives of the enterprise. 4) Based on standards:- Standards signify the work expected of the subordinates so that the reward can be determined by comparing the standard work with the actual work performance. Therefore, the motivation system should be based on standard. 5) Related to efforts: The motivational system should be directly related to the efforts put in by the employees or their efficiency. In other words the system should be so formulated as to appreciate every effort put in by the employee. 6) Justifiable:- The motivational system should be justifiable. It means that there should be equal motivational for equal achievement. The above analysis make it clear that a man that a manager should pay special attention to take facts while choosing a success put motivation system.

PROBLEMS OR HURDLES IN MOTIVATION


Motivation is the outcome of a certain relation between the superiors and the subordinates. For this the superiors or the managers make special efforts different from the daily control or functions. It is not necessary that the efforts made by the managers will be unanimously acceptable. It can also be opposed. In this way there are many hurdles in implementing a motivational system. 1) A Costly efforts: A major aim of implementing a motivational system is to raise the efficiency of the employees. If the labour put in its implementation becomes successful, it is not at all costly. It is however, often seen that even after making all efforts the expected level of efficiency is not attained. In such a situation it proves to be a costly process. 2) Trouble making employees: In every enterprise there are some troublesome employees. Their only purpose is to create trouble and not to allow the policies to be implemented. The problems of such employees are altogether different and serious. It is a tough job to motivate them. Therefore, these people can be a hindrance in the implementation of any motivational plan. 3) Motivation is an internal feeling: Generally, it is understood that motivation is an inner feeling of man. This feeling cannot be had by giving some order or be inspired by implementing any plan. So long as the employee does not have an urge to work from within all efforts come to naught. For example, those people who have the inner urge to work, they do not need any motivation. On the other, hand, those who lack this urge cannot be motivated by any number of efforts. 4) Opposition to changes: Human nature does not accept changes easily. People get accustomed to the system in vogue and want to work with that system. Therefore, whenever some new plan is implemented they oppose it and become a hindrance in its success. In this way there are many opposing factors which make efforts to make motivational system unsuccessful. But a successful manager faces these hurdles dauntlessly and achieves his objective.

SOME FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES GOVERNING MOTIVATION 1. No doubt motivation, when triggered, will do its job of stimulating an individual nicely but unless the individual possesses. The required ability or capability to put in harder work for improved performance. Therefore, for improved performance, both aspects stimulation and capability for harder work, probably are necessary. The problem of motivation involves impelling forces which arouse and mobilse the activities of the individual and channelise them toward those direction, which help him accomplish his goals. When an individual is motivated, he possesses latent energy or drive which is potentially available for an efficient effort. Individuals hierarchical needs focus on how far the motivation works, as different people aspire for different reward from their jobs. There is a very close interrelationship between an appropriate behaviour and rewards, more particularly the value of the reward itself. Motivation work best, if these reward are suggestive of their scheduled timings, that quantum and their frequency. For motivation, to have its desired effect, it is necessary that reward system should be based on equity and fair justice as people are often motivated by comparison with their fellow workers. It is of vital importance that fair and equitable reward are a must in the right application of motivation. Goals or objectives are important motivator. If these objectives, as predetermine, are precisely defined in clear terms, they help increasing effort on the job.

Review of Literature

REVIEW OF LITERATURE
INTRODUCTION For any piece of research a review of related studies in the field of investigation is of great help to investigator. That is why review of related studies is a part of the research report. Emplacing the importance of survey of related literature Barr and scales (1941) have pointed out. Survey of related literature helps us to share whether evidence already available solves problems adequately without further investigation and thus save duplication. Such a review would help the investigator to put her finger on the gaps left by the earlier researchers. The review would also help to give support to the findings of the present study ,With this mind the investigator planned to review the literature and research findings in the area of Saving behaviour. In the next few pages our attempt has been made in that direction. Goyal J.C. (1980) conducted a study of the relationship among attitudes Saving behaviour, adjustment and profession interests of teacher educators in India. The objectives of this study were, to measure the attitudes, Saving behaviour, adjustment and professional interest of the teacher educators of different categories based on sex, age, qualification and experience and to find out the relationship among attitude, Saving behaviour of teacher educators by training their attitudes, adjustment and professional interest as independent variables. The findings of the study were that a large majority of the teacher educators were favorable inclined towards their profession and were satisfied in the job and the attitude and Saving behaviour of different groups did not differ significantly and Saving behaviour could be predicted by attitude and occupational adjustment by not other variable. Cachur Thomas John (1980) conducted a study on the relationship between the Saving behaviour of secondary School subordinate administrators and their perceptions on the bases of power of their principals, leadership style based on expert, referent and legitimate power, more satisfied they will be with their job and also more productive. Gupta S.P (1980) conducted a study of Saving behaviour at three levels of teaching, the main objectives of the study were to measure the Saving behaviour of primary School teachers, secondary School teacher and to compare the Saving behaviour of married teachers will that of unmarried teachers. To compare the Saving behaviour of teachers of different age groups of Primary School Teachers and Secondary School Teachers. The findings of this study were that primary School teachers were significantly less satisfied than Secondary School Teachers. Nwaobasi Jouathan Okezie (1981): On the basis of his study. Relationship between administrative Management system, selected demographic variables and level of Saving behaviour. An analysis of principal teacher perception concluded that the more participative the system, the more likely the level of Saving behaviour would be. Rao S.N.

Research Methodology

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
MEANING OF RESEARCH The term research refers to one systematic method consisting of enunciating the problem formulation hypothesis either in the form of solution towards the concern had problem or in certain generalization for some theoretical formulation. Research is the art of scientific investigation. The advanced learners' dictionary of current English laid down on meaning of Research as a careful investigation or on enquiry specially through search for new facts in any branch of knowledge. Some people consider research is a movement turn the unknown to known. According to Clifford "Research" comprises solution, connecting, organizing and evaluation, data making deduction and reaching conclusion and atleast carefully testing due conclusion to determined whether they lot the formulating hypothesis. STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM Motivation is one of the most crucial factors that determine that efficiency and effectiveness of an organization. Higher motivation leads to job satisfaction of workers. Opportunities for need satisfaction make employees loyal and committed to the organization. As a result labour absenteeism and turnover are low. High motivation helps to reduce resistance to change. The supervisor complains that the employees are not working efficiently and effectively and also there is lack of regular dedication & hardwork among employees. Moreover employees focus on their own individual goals rather than organization goals. On the other hand, employees too have grievances, which may be either against the organization. They complain that the working condition are not proper, wages are inadequate, they are not provided proper medical and training facilities etc. all these lead to dissatisfaction, discouragement and frustration among the employees. Workers motivation is related with many other aspect of behavioral science. If a organization motivates their employees by giving them fringe benefits facilities good working conditions, proper medical & training facilities then there will be never dissatisfaction, discouragement & frustration among the employees. Motivational schemes create integration of individual interests with organizational objectives. There arises a sense of belonging and mutual cooperation at all levels.

Scope of Study The scope of this study is restricted to only one organization i.e. HMT Ltd., Pinjore (Haryana) As one person can not study more than one industrial unit at a time, therefore I preferred to select one organisaton, under study so that I can complete my research satisfactory and get the respective results. There ware many workers in the organization. Shortage of time I could only interact with 40 workers. Sincere effort have been made to cover all the aspects of motivation.

LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY


The size of the organization is very large. Contact with all workers impossible. This study only relates to one organization, so conclusion drawn may not be finding its utility in all the industries. Difficulty was faced in getting the responses to various questions because workers could not devote enough time to me. Another limitations of the study is that the size of the sample very small due to the shortage of time & resources. On various counts, the information biasness cannot be rated out. Language problem is the another limitation to interact with working. Beyond the above limitations, every efforts has been made to make the study up to data to the best possible extent.
