...they feel they must do something, or they work to satisfy their needs. In an organization or institution it makes sense to study and know the attitude and behavior of teachers towards work, because strong attitudes will most likely affect a person’s behavior. Work attitudes of teachers’ are clearly important to organizational, when attitudes are negative; they are both a symptom of underlying problems and contributing cause of forthcoming difficulties in an organization. Declining attitude may result in strikes, work slowdowns, absences and employee turnover. They may also be a part of grievances, low performance, poor product quality, and disciplinary problems. The organization cost associated with poor employee attitudes may severely reduce an organization’s competitiveness.

Employees’ report their feelings toward their jobs satisfaction and work environment, its statistical generated through survey feedback are better conclusion to the existing human resource data.

...Chapter 1 Introduction This chapter includes the background of the study, statement of the problem,conceptual framework, scope and delimitation, significance of the study and definition of terms. Background of the Study Fraternities exist now a day, these days fraternities are common among college students.. The word fraternities came from the Latin word, frater and soror, meaning ‘’brother’’ and ‘’sister ‘’respectively. From the beginning, the norms and values of fraternities were independent of the college environment. Since the founding of Kappa Alpha at Union College (in Schenectady, New York) in 1825 as the oldest secret brotherhood of a social nature, fraternities developed with different personalities and histories on each campus. The trappings of an idealized ancient Greece were added to those of Freemasonry to create secret societies dedicated to bringing together young men who were seeking conviviality. Members historically met weekly in a student dormitory room or rented facility for social and intellectual fellowship. To fight the monotony of mid-nineteenth-century colleges, fraternities institutionalized various escapes of a social nature. In our time many of the students who study at the university are involved in fraternities and became a big problem with the university because many of the students participating here have neglected their studies and the others were lost due to hazing.And most of the students involved in fraternities and unaware...

...Demographic Dividend Opportunity or Threat In 1798, in his An Essay on the Principle of Population, Reverend Thomas Malthus posited that the human population growing at an exponential rate shall someday surpass the level sustainable by the arithmetically growing rate of food production. This statement, which forms the crux of Malthusianism, argued for greater birth control measures to keep population in check. The 19th century, though not without its problems of population related urbanization, didn’t see Malthus’ premonition come to fruition and his argument seemed to have been laid to rest, albeit for half a century when in the wake of unshackling of slavery’s yoke by very many nations in the post war world, it was resurrected by the aptly named neo-Malthusians, including the likes of Paul Ehlrich (the Population Bomb) and the Paddock Brothers (Famine 1975! America's Decision: Who Will Survive?) Influenced by Soviet ideas, India was the first country to have an official population control policy in 1951. While the numbers would say that the policy hasn’t been successful, India has a population of 1.25 billion, the country has, by serendipity or by plan, reached a stage where the potential of its large population and the structure of it has become an important weapon in the country’s growing economic arsenal. The Demographic dividend, as this weapon is popularly called, depends on the make-up of the population, particularly on the dependency ratio, which is...

...There is also significant relationship between tenure and facets of satisfaction (job, pay and fringe benefits), but the effect of tenure on satisfaction is significantly modified by age. The search for an understanding of the causes of job satisfaction or dissatisfaction is an ongoing area of interest for social scientists and managers; the premise being that satisfied workers will be more productive and remain with the organization longer, whereas dissatisfied workers will be less productive and more inclined to quit. Early studies (Myers, 1934; Maslow, 1954; Herzberg et al., 1959) concentrated on the importance of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation and rewards towards satisfaction, but few paid adequate attention to the impact of demographic and occupational variables. More recent...

...Gordon Bellamy 07/15/2013 THE BABY BOOM During the Great Depression the marriage rate fell as uncertainty over economic conditions caused people to postpone decisions that would significantly affect their lives. Birthrates also dropped: pessimism shrouded Americans' expectations of a promising future for themselves and their children. After World War II ended, however, prospects seemed considerably brighter. Young Americans returned home from war in 1945 ready to reap the benefits of victory and a prospering economy. Accordingly, there were almost 2.3 million marriages in 1946, an increase of more than six hundred thousand over the previous year. Many of these newlyweds had children within a year: a record 3.8 million babies were born in 1947. This was the first year of the baby boom, which lasted for most of the 1950s. Between 1948 and 1953 more babies were born than had been over the previous thirty years. In 1954 a record birthrate, a low death rate, and an influx of 144,000 immigrants created the largest one-year population gain in U.S. history. (Thomson Gale) In the United States, the term Baby Boomers commonly applied to people with birth years after World War II and before the Vietnam War. A large part of the cause of the Baby Boom was an after effect of World War II where the bombed out cities and fractured economies increased the needs for goods and services in unprecedented...

Data collection incorporated current technologies such as the social networking website Facebook to invite age-appropriate respondents to participate in this study. Participants completed the survey instrument on-line using a link to Survey Monkey. The data analysis focuses on those workplace issues that act as motivators or de-motivators for this generation. GENERATION Y IN THE WORKFORCE: MANAGERIAL CHALLENGES Toward Understanding Gen Y. What defines a generation? Through the years a number of different things such as wars, discoveries, politics, beliefs, and popular culture have all helped shape and define generations. The characteristics attributed to an age-bound demographic are often reflections of the events occurring in the world around them. While agreement on a definition may be lacking, through a combination of thoughts and ideas, educators can agree on certain aspects of each generation. A generation can influence styles and trends in business, while learning from the mistakes and successes of the previous generations. There have been numerous studies on Generation Y and the impact that they may have in the business world, yet the thoughts and experiences of this generation as they have entered the work force are scarce. Now that Gen Ys are entering the workforce, the impact of their presence can actually be...

...Generation X and Y in the Workplace In an age of hard economic times, two income families, and the offspring of the baby boomers, Generation X and Y learned to adapt to changes very early in their lives. Instead of coming home to mom sitting in the kitchen with cookies and milk, children were shuffled off to daycare facilities or baby sitters. Others called “latchkey” children, came home to an empty house with instructions to get their homework done, never answer the door, and wait until “mom and dad” came home. These individuals are independent, resourceful, and extremely clever with technology. As they enter the workforce the need to be extremely self-sufficient is a key to success and job fulfillment. The downturn of the current economy combined with corporate buyouts and layoffs, Generation X and Y find themselves working alongside an aging workforce with the belief that corporations do not value their contributions and hard work. This concept makes it difficult for these individuals to attain projected financial goals and be successful. Seeking to retire at an early age to enjoy life, Generation X and Y are optimistic of the future and thrive to find balance in their professional and personal lives. Expectations and Influences The expectations and influences of Generation X and Y impact the workforce differently in many ways because of life experiences and backgrounds. Generation X, born between 1965 and 1980 grew up in the shadows of the boomer generation. Generation...
