Abstract:
Motivation is an important part of Human resource management. This paper summarizes
motivational factor importance of engineers and doctors in Rawalpindi/Islamabad.
Demographical analysis and comparison has been performed to check out the motivational factor
differences between doctors and engineers. Motivational factors are selected from the theoretical
and practical work done by the different researchers. Questionnaire was circulated online as well
as physically to the engineers and doctors working in the different regions of
Rawalpindi/Islamabad. After the survey analysis was done in SPSS. Based on the motivational
scores, overall doctors have given prime importance to serving people/nation as top motivating
factor followed by the same importance to job security and good salary package. Similarly,
engineers have given respect and recognition from society and superiors as top motivator
followed by job security and good salary package. Demographical states show that most of the
time these three are at top in their respective categories but financial benefits, work place
condition, skill improvement trainings, higher qualifications opportunities, relationship with
coworkers, equal and fair treatment of employees, promotion have shuffled their place. Job
autonomy, job empowerment and financial tours are at the bottom position in motivational
factors list.
