Employee satisfaction is a key success factor for any organisation, as satisfied employees contribute to greater performance and efficiency. Employee satisfaction is linked to the achievement of the organisation's objectives, and pay, working hours, the organisational climate and the reward system play an important role. Many organisations focus primarily on increasing productivity through complex techniques and cost reduction, often neglecting the basic conditions that would contribute to higher employee satisfaction. The theoretical part presents perspectives from domestic and international sources on employee satisfaction. It outlines the basic concepts and factors of employee satisfaction, forms of satisfaction, and the elements influencing it. On the other hand, dissatisfaction and employee motivation are also discussed. In the research part, a quantitative measurement method and a survey were used to provide a realistic picture of employee satisfaction at the Administrative Unit Celje. The results showed that employees are generally satisfied with their colleagues and working conditions. However, they expressed a need for additional opportunities for professional development and better communication with management. Differences in satisfaction based on job roles were also identified, highlighting the need for tailored leadership and motivational approaches. Based on the results, suggestions for improvements in employee satisfaction at the Administrative Unit Celje are presented.
