Abstract
This study examines the comparison of job satisfaction between government and private sector employees. Labor is a legal category that defines an employee's employment. Employee satisfaction is defined as the evaluation of their performance and work environment. It includes not only employee satisfaction with salary and benefits but also satisfaction with job content, excellent leadership, relationships with coworkers, and so on. The article describes the labor market model, the private sector model, and the public sector model. Upon comparing the private sector and public sector models in the labor market, we discovered that each sector possesses unique characteristics. This study focuses on the differential impact of each type of fit on outcomes, dividing personality fit with a profession into two levels: education fit and competency fit. Correlation analysis, t-test, and multi-regression analysis were carried out to test a number of hypotheses. Using a survey, an analysis of the influence of the public and private sectors and a comparative analysis were conducted. We examined nine job satisfaction factors and found that public sector workers were more satisfied than their private sector counterparts. Education and technology boost careers, while supportive social policies enhance job satisfaction in the private sector.
