Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between employeeship and job satisfaction. Research has shown that job satisfaction has favorable effects for both the organization and the individual. It has also shown that job satisfaction and variables seen as part of employeeship correlate. However, to the knowledge of the authors no previous study has been performed to examine the correlation between job satisfaction and employeeship as a whole. Further the study examines if employeeship differs between industries. A total of 140 participants from nine organizations completed two questionnaires: Work-Oriented Relationships and Knowledge-based Investigation Questionnaire (Bertlett & Arvidsson, 2009) that measures...

The results showed at large a significant positive correlation between employeeship and job satisfaction. In order to compare industries the organizations were divided into Processing industry, Trade and Telecom. The study showed significant differences in employeeship depending on industry, where the Processing industry showed a lower employeeship compared to Trade and Telecom. The meanings of the results were discussed. (Less)

Sammanfattning
Syftet med studien var att undersöka sambandet mellan medarbetarskap och arbetstillfredsställelse. Forskning har visat att arbetstillfredsställelse har gynnsamma effekter för både organisation och individ samt att det finns ett samband mellan arbetstillfredsställelse och olika faktorer som ingår i medarbetarskap. Till författarnas kännedom har inte någon tidigare studie undersökt sambandet mellan arbetstillfredsställelse och medarbetarskap som helhet. Vidare undersöktes huruvida medarbetarskap skiljer sig åt mellan olika branscher. 140 deltagare från nio organisationer fyllde i enkäten Work-Oriented Relationships and Knowledge-based Investigation Questionnaire (Bertlett & Arvidsson, 2009) som mäter medarbetarskap och delar...

Resultaten påvisade till stor del signifikant positiva samband mellan medarbetarskap och arbetstillfredställelse. För att jämföra skillnader mellan branscher delades organisationerna in i Processindustri, Handels och Telekom. Studien fann signifikanta skillnader i medarbetarskapet beroende av branschtillhörighet där Processindustrin visade på ett lägre medarbetarskap i jämförelse med de andra branscherna. Resultatens betydelse diskuterades. (Less)
