Abstract
A study was conducted to test the two factor theory of Herzberg in three different types of organizations and at two levels of employees. Seven hundred and eighty- nine male adults from selected organizations were interviewed to reveal their sources of satisfaction and dissatisfaction. The findings indicated that differences in job attitude profiles were not very different.
