| Herzberg’s
Theory of Motivation |
| Posits that there are two catalysts for workers: hygiene
agents and motivating agents. Hygiene agents do nothing to motivate workers,
but their absence demotivates them. Hygiene agents are the expectations all
workers have: job security, paychecks, clean and safe working conditions, a
sense of belonging, civil working relationships, and other basic attributes
associated with employment. Motivating agents are components such as rewards,
recognition, promotions, and other values that encourage individuals to succeed |
