For the organization to maintain higher level of employees’ satisfaction there should be an assessment of individual person to determine the need for satisfaction.

Simple random sampling technique was used to select the respondent for the study and twenty eight (28) samples were selected and structured questionnaires were distributed to the respondents. The study shown that within the organization there is a lot of dissatisfied employees who does not give out their grievances this is because some of employees fear to lose the relationship with their bosses and some fear that if they speak out, they will be in the danger of losing the job. Therefore, the organization relies on the dimensions that employees’ satisfaction is due to high payments, promotion, training and rewards. This might be somehow true but not exactly because satisfaction of employees does not depend only on the dimensions above but it is widely and it also bases on internal feelings of a person such as the feeling to be loved by others, to be cared, the views to be listened they also work as factors that highly motivates the employees to meet their satisfaction in the course of providing good and quality service to their clients.

Hence if these suggestions will be considered by the Organization most of the employees within the organization will be satisfied to perform their works effectively to meet the organization requirements.
