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.
