“…The relationship between higher wages and a positive effect on employee productivity has been established. A similar study undertaken by Kim & Choi (2018) established that an enhancement in wages leads to an improvement in worker productivity. Gunawan & Amalia (2015) assumed that the effects of wages on employee productivity are constant.…”

Purpose- Garment employee productivity in Bangladesh is the lowest compared to its competitors such as China, India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka. The Bangladeshi Ready-Made Garment (RMG) industry will find it a challenge to survive in the global market unless they improve employee productivity. Therefore, the primary purpose of this study was to observe the relationship among wages and benefits, welfare facilities, employee work motivation and employee productivity. Design/Methodology/Approach- The study was conducted under the positivism philosophy for which Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs Theory was used for framing the hypotheses. A deductive approach, explanatory research design and a quantitative methodology was followed in order to conduct the study. Through a questionnaire survey, twenty-five items were taken from existing literature to measure the variables. By a systematic probability sampling technique, 500 samples were collected from the target population. Thereafter, SPSS and SEM using Smart-PLS were utilised for analysing and developing the model. Findings- The outcome of the analysis revealed that all seven hypotheses were supported. Practical Implications- These findings will assist the policymakers, the government of Bangladesh, factory owners, managers and other stakeholders to formulate new policies and practices. Originality/Value- This study explores the relationship among wages and benefits, welfare facilities, employee work motivation and employee productivity which has not been explored theoretically and tested empirically in a Bangladeshi context. In the future, comparative research can be carried out by collecting samples from the EPZ (Export Processing Zone) and non-EPZ factories.

“…These feelings and circumstances may contribute to failing to achieve higher wages or desired promotions/incentives and a general lack of opportunities or recognition for the work performed. Thus, PWM reflects the degree to which an organization or environment satisfies the individual's needs, desires, or preferences; all of which may heighten workers' experiences of stress (Deniz et al, 2015; Iacovides et al, 2003; Kim & Choi, 2018; Kristof‐Brown, 1996). Consistent with this, we argue that PWM largely reflects the overall psychosocial stress that results from working conditions.…”

Previous research has not adequately investigated the persistent influence of stressful work experiences, particularly person-work mismatch (PWM), on later-life physical health outcomes of working husbands and wives. Using prospective data collected from 235 working husbands and wives over a period of 27 years (1991-2017), this study examined PWM in early middle years (40-50 years of age) and body mass index (BMI) trajectories in mid-later years (50-65 years of age) in a dyadic actor-partner interdependence modelling framework. Results showed PWM in early middle years was related to BMI trajectories in mid-later years, which contributed to multiple physical health outcomes in later life. Spouses' PWM influenced not only their BMI trajectories but also their partners' BMI trajectories, providing evidence for partner effects. This couple-level BMI process over the mid-later years was related to spouses' physical health in later years. Husbands' elevated BMI level resulted in adverse physical health outcomes. In contrast, for wives, it was the change in BMI over time that resulted in adverse physical health outcomes in their later years. These findings are particularly important for couple-focused family interventions as they highlight the need to consider couple-level lifestyle and behavioural factors that can safeguard spouses from the negative health consequences of PWM.

“…The next theory is from Kim and Choi (2018) all about Job-Fit Theory. Job-Fit refers to the extent wherein the job characteristics performed by an individual worker and the knowledge, skills, and capacities required for job performance correspond or are appropriate.…”

This study explores the different perspectives of UIC graduates regarding education-job mismatch and interpreted it to create a possible model of its perceived causes and impacts, according to the participants themselves. The participants were two (2) female and one (1) male graduate of Business Administration who is currently experiencing education-job mismatch. The researchers’ implied semi-structured interviews and thematic analysis to gather and interpret data. They were able to form 12 themes that are divided into 4 categories that successfully answered the research questions of this study. Results show that some of the perceived causes of education-job mismatch is weak economy and inadequate job opportunities, field of study, and theory and practice misalignment. Thus, the findings of this study suggest that education-job mismatch itself is caused by a weak economy which also causes a weak economy.
