Abstract

Using the RLMS-HSE data of Russian workers from 2002 to 2019 we investigate the relationship between job satisfaction and its components, videlicet satisfaction in pay, working conditions and promotion opportunities. We compare quantitative contribution estimates for each component. We found that satisfaction with working conditions is the major contributor to overall job satisfaction.
