In order to investigate the need deficiency and relative importance of job facets for overall job satisfaction of women employees, a sample of 250 female employees (75 teachers, 30 physicians, 85 bankers, and 60 nurses) were selected from Khulna division of Bangladesh on a random basis. Two specially designed structured questionnaires were used to collect the data through field study. The results revealed that all the categories of subjects were dissatisfied with almost ten job facets. The study further revealed that physicians were more dissatisfied with pay, promotion, and recognition than any other groups. Nurses were more dissatisfied with recognition and working environment, while bankers felt more responsibility than what they could shoulder. Moreover, all the categories of subjects were more dissatisfied with recognition for achievement than any other job facets. The study further indicated that all job related factors were not equally important and also vary with the types of occupations. However, promotional opportunity, recognition, relation with colleagues, working environment, and work autonomy were more important factors than job security, participation, relation with colleagues as perceived by all categories of subjects for their overall job satisfaction. Salary was perceived as one of the least important factors for overall job satisfaction of the subjects.
