According to Herzberg’s research, job satisfaction and dissatisfaction are influenced by two different sets of factors: motivators and hygiene factors. Motivators are factors that lead to high job satisfaction and motivation, such as achievement, recognition, responsibility, advancement, and growth. Hygiene factors are factors that do not cause satisfaction, but can cause dissatisfaction if they are absent or inadequate, such as working conditions, salary, security, and supervision. Beyond a certain level, improving dissatisfiers (hygiene factors) does not lead to job satisfaction, as they only prevent dissatisfaction. To increase job satisfaction, motivators need to be enhanced or introduced. Therefore, statement B is true. The other statements are not true, as they either contradict or misinterpret Herzberg’s theory.References: https://apmg-international.com/sites/default/files/Change%20Management%20Foundation%20Sample%20Paper%2026%20-%20v1.0.pdf (page 11)
