5. Sdolias L., Belias D., Koustelios A., Gkolia A., Koutiva M., Thomos A., Varsanis K. (2014). Job Satisfaction and Motivation in the Greek Banking Sector . 9th Annual MIBES International Conference, Perrotis College, Thessaloniki 30th May 1st June 2014

The purpose of the current study was to examine the relation between motivation and job satisfaction among Greek bank employees. In particular, the study examined the possible positive relationship between the self-determined, independent forms of motivation and the factors of job satisfaction and the possible negative relationship between the non self-determined forms of motivation and the factors of job satisfaction. The research sample consisted of 172 bank employees. For the collection of the data, the Work Motivation Inventory – Greek version (WMI-G) was used. The inventory was created by Christodoulidis and Papaioannou (2002), based on the Work Motivation Inventory created by Blais, Briere, Lachance, Riddle and Vallerand (1993). It consists of 35 questions under the general question "What pushes you to do this job?" corresponding to five factors: "Intrinsic motivation" (12 issues), "Identified regulation" (4 issues), "Introjected regulation" (3 issues), "External Regulation" (6 issues), "Amotivation" (10 issues). The answers were given on a seven-point Likert-type scale (1 = not responds at all, 7 = corresponds exactly). The tool which was used for the measurement of job satisfaction was the Employee Satisfaction Inventory, ESI, created by Koustelios, 1991. It included Sdrolias-Belias-Koustelios-Golia-Koutiva-Thomos-Varsanis, 82-101 9 th MIBES INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE 30/5-1/6 2014 83 24 questions, which measure six dimensions of job satisfaction: 1. Working conditions (5 questions), 2. Earnings (4 questions), 3. Promotions (3 questions), 4. Nature of work (4 questions), 5. Immediate superior (4 questions) and 6. The institution as a whole (4 questions). The research results indicate that the highest the motivation the highest the job satisfaction of employees. However, further investigation should be carried out in the Greek population, so that occupational phenomena like work motivation and job satisfaction are well studied and promoted
