Abstract

The current concept of employee management includes increasing employee satisfaction and involvement. Many studies have been realised on this topic, but the results are inconsistent. However, satisfaction is understood as one of the aspects of employee involvement. The article is based on the assumption that an important part of involvement is work enjoyment. The aim was to create a model that described work enjoyment. In order to find the independent variables influencing work enjoyment, a research study was conducted, followed by the use of regression analysis. It was found that of the 11 observed independent variables, the only two that had a significant influence was recognition of the employee’s opinion and their sense of importance to the company, and partly also opportunities for growth. Interdependence between the factors influencing satisfaction was also confirmed.
