Motivation comes from the work itself

Hertzberg found that the factors that cause people to be dissatisfied with their work are often external to their work, and are mostly related to their working conditions and environment. The factors that bring people satisfaction are usually intrinsic to the work, determined by the work itself

Health factors handled well can only play a role in keeping people motivated to maintain the status quo of the work. The motivational factors, on the other hand, can make people feel satisfied if they are handled well, but if they are not handled correctly, the negative effect will be at most the lack of satisfaction, not dissatisfaction

In short, we should improve the motivational factors under the premise of doing a good job on the health care factors

The significance of this theory is that it dismantles the traditional view of satisfaction-dissatisfaction, and argues that there exists a dual continuum in the traditional concept of satisfaction. There is a dual continuum in the traditional view: the opposite of satisfaction is the absence of satisfaction, not dissatisfaction. The opposite of dissatisfaction is the absence of dissatisfaction. The implications of this theory for business management: in order to motivate and maintain employees, it is necessary to pay attention to the health factor in the first place, in order to prevent dissatisfaction from arising. But it is more important to use incentives to stimulate the enthusiasm of employees, hard work, to create a positive situation, because only incentives will increase the sense of job satisfaction of employees.
