Analysis of the relationship between job satisfaction and the effectiveness of leadership in supervisors of an automotive company

Abstract

Understanding the role of internal control within an organization is crucial, as it supports the achievement of organizational objectives. Assuming that all technical aspects within the manufacturing line are effectively controlled, ensuring timely operations throughout the production day is critical. This study focuses on evaluating the influence of leadership and discipline in generating reliable insights into the operational situation. Effective use of available resources, with each work area having a production supervisor supported by a group leader, ensures efficient time control and operations.

Employee satisfaction with their work environment is vital for management to consider. It is believed that employee turnover and absenteeism are primarily dependent on job satisfaction and leadership styles. These factors serve as key indicators of the organization's health and well-being. The study involved 30 production supervisors from two plants, using two tests: one to evaluate leadership effectiveness and style, and the other to measure job satisfaction. A correlation analysis was performed to assess the relationship between these variables and turnover levels in both plants.
