Abstract
Employee satisfaction is a key element among other physical resources in an organization for achieving its goals and objectives in the competitive environment. Employees’ satisfaction is significant since it has been reported that satisfied workers perform well. However, how the management assistants’ satisfaction is decided in a university environment has not been studied in the Sri Lankan context. The main objective of this study is to examine the extent to which Management/Supervision, Organizational/Working conditions, Salary, and Training opportunities, impact management assistants’ satisfaction. The research design was explanatory quantitative. The population of this study consisted of the total number of Management Assistants in the state higher education sector in Sri Lanka, of which 100 Management Assistants were drawn as the sample.
