TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the extent to which three variables (i.e. personality traits, demographic variables, and job satisfaction) are interrelated with each other and what effect they have on each other in relation to the UK retail sector.
Abstract: The primary concern of this paper is to investigatethe extent to which three variables (i.e. personality traits, demographic variables, and job satisfaction) are interrelated with each other and what effect they have on each other in relation to the UK retail sector. The four different types of retail stores i.e. Tesco, Primark, Ikea and WH Smith were selected for survey purpose to minimise the class biasness.Total 300 close-ended questionnaires were distributed and 220 responses were obtained.The findings reveal that ‘Neuroticism’ is negatively associated with job satisfaction as well as with ‘Extraversion’. However, it is positively correlated with other three personality groups including ‘Agreeableness’, ‘Conscientious’, and ‘Openness’. On the other hand, ‘Openness to experience’ has a negative relationship with ‘Agreeableness’.It is also found from the ranking analysis that employees with ‘Agreeableness’ and ‘Conscientiousness’ personalities are more successful in their career and consequently they are more satisfied with their jobs.

TL;DR: This paper examined whether core self-evaluations (CSE) are negatively associated with perceived job demands and emotional exhaustion (EE) and found that high CSE is a personal protective resource that must be taken into account in burnout-related interventions.
Abstract: Abstract We examined whether core self-evaluations (CSE) are negatively associated with perceived job demands and emotional exhaustion (EE) (differential exposure hypothesis), as well as decrease the relationship between job demands and EE (differential reactivity hypothesis, DRH). This study is the first to examine the DRH with EE as strain outcome. Employees of diverse backgrounds (N = 296) completed a survey measuring each variable. Results from conditional process analyses corroborate both hypotheses. The more employees had high CSE (1) the less they perceived high job demands, (2) the less they had exhaustion symptoms, and (3) the less job demands were associated with exhaustion. Accordingly, CSE is a personal protective resource that must be taken into account in burnout-related interventions (e.g., using coaching practices tailored to favor high CSE).

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors explored the effect of work values and socio-demographic characteristics upon the link between life satisfaction and job satisfaction, and found that the role of job in person's life depends largely on demographic factors, religiosity and socioeconomic factors.
Abstract: PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to explore the effect of work values and socio-demographic characteristics upon the link between life satisfaction and job satisfaction.Design/methodology/approachThe European Values Study (EVS) 2008–2009 is used as the dataset. The sample is limited to those who have paid jobs (28,653 cases).FindingsSocio-demographic characteristics matter more than work values in explaining the effect of job satisfaction on life satisfaction. The association between life satisfaction and job satisfaction is stronger for higher educated individuals and those who are self-employed and weaker for women, married individuals, religious individuals and those who are younger. Extrinsic and intrinsic work values significantly influence life satisfaction independent of the level of job satisfaction.Practical implicationsIt is important to pay attention to the working conditions and well-being of the core of the labour force, in other words, of those who are ready to invest more in their jobs. Also, special attention should be given to self-employment.Originality/valueThe paper compares the roles of work values and of socio-demographic characteristics as predictors of the association between job satisfaction and life satisfaction. It shows that the role of job in person's life depends largely on demographic factors, religiosity and socio-economic factors.
