Why is it important?

These results have important policy implications from the point of view of the firm management. Improving the management-employee relations in large firms will increase employee satisfaction in many respects as well as increase productivity and reduce turnover.

Perspectives

Main findings indicate that management-employee relationships are less satisfactory in the large firms than in the small firms. Less satisfactory management-employee relationships in the large firms may be a major source of the observed lower level of job satisfaction in them
