Tables 6 demonstrate sample‟s age distribution. The major part of sample 38.4% , n= 73 was of the age
group between 31-35. Only 1.5%, n= 3 respondents belong to the age group of 51-55 years (being the
minority of the respondents). One respondent did not mentioned his/ her age.. From the following results
it can be understood that the major part of sample consisted upon the faculty which represent the young
cohort of age ranging from 25-35 years.
Table 7 shows the sample composition in term of their tenure (Years of service), almost 104 respondents
54.5% belong to service group of 1-5 years of service. 18.3 % of sample fall in to the service group of 6-
10 years. The service group of 31-35 years service group represent the smallest cohort (n=3).
Table 8 present Pearson correlation results among age, tenure, gender, and rank with overall job
satisfaction level of sample, which is measured with JDI (Job Description Index). The coefficients of
correlation varied from -0.162 (Gender) and 0.724(age).Te Ranks and job satisfaction level of the
respondents was significantly correlated (r=-0.828 at Significance level of 0.01, p< 0.01). On the other
side age and job satisfaction level was also strongly correlated and significant (p< 0.01) (r= 0.724) as well
as tenure & Job satisfaction (r=0.712) (p
