The theories have overlap, but the fundamental nature of each model differs. While Maslow\u2019s Hierarchy implies the addition or removal of the same need stimuli will enhance or detract from the employee\u2019s satisfaction, Herzberg\u2019s findings indicate that factors garnering job satisfaction are separate from factors leading to poor job satisfaction and employee turnover. Herzberg\u2019s system of needs is segmented into motivators and hygiene factors.<\/p>\n<p>The two-factor\u00a0theory\u00a0(also known as\u00a0Herzberg&#8217;s\u00a0motivation-hygiene\u00a0theory\u00a0and dual-factor\u00a0theory) states that there are certain factors in the workplace that cause job satisfaction while a separate set of factors cause dissatisfaction, all of which act independently of each other.<\/p>\n<p>Hygiene factors are those job factors that are essential for the existence of motivation at the workplace. These do not lead to positive satisfaction in the long-term. But if these factors are absent \/ if these factors are non-existent at the workplace, then they lead to dissatisfaction. In other words, hygiene factors are those factors which when adequate\/reasonable in a job, pacify the employees and do not make them dissatisfied. These factors are extrinsic to work. Hygiene factors are also called dissatisfiers or maintenance factors as they are required to avoid dissatisfaction. These factors describe the job environment\/scenario. The hygiene factors symbolized the physiological needs which the individuals wanted and expected to be fulfilled.<\/p>\n<p>The Two-Factor theory implies that the managers must stress upon guaranteeing the adequacy of the hygiene factors to avoid employee dissatisfaction. Also, the managers must make sure that the work is stimulating and rewarding so that the employees are motivated to work and perform harder and better. This theory emphasizes job-enrichment so as to motivate employees. The job must utilize the employee\u2019s skills and competencies to the maximum. Focusing on motivational factors can improve work-quality.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/practice\/talent-management\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"961\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Try-Free-Practice-Test-for-SAP-C_TPLM22_67-at-Testprep-training.-3-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-92475\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Try-Free-Practice-Test-for-SAP-C_TPLM22_67-at-Testprep-training.-3-1.png 961w, https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Try-Free-Practice-Test-for-SAP-C_TPLM22_67-at-Testprep-training.-3-1-300x47.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 961px) 100vw, 961px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/tutorial\/certified-talent-manager\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Go back to Tutorial<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/certified-talent-manager\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Go to Home Page<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Herzberg\u2019s Theory- An alternative motivation theory to Maslow\u2019s Hierarchy of Needs is the Motivator-Hygiene (Herzberg\u2019s) theory.
