Abstract [sv]

I många år har individers personlighet studerats och det har visat sig att våra personlighetsdrag påverkar hur vi agerar, hanterar och upplever situationer i våra liv. Detta betyder att individers upplevelse av Arbetstillfredsställelse kan associeras till ens personlighetsdrag. Arbetsgivare kan med hjälp av denna information få kunskap om anställdas upplevda Arbetstillfredsställelse och med hjälp av det kan de se till att medarbetarna trivs på sin arbetsplats och mår bra. Syftet med denna uppsats är att studera sambandet mellan personlighet och Arbetstillfredsställelse bland HR-anställda. För att genomföra studien har kvantitativ metod använts. Flera olika organisationers HR-avdelningar kontaktades för att samla in data i form utav en enkät som innehåller frågor rörande bakgrund, personlighet, Arbetstillfredsställelse, Informellt lärande och Hälsotillstånd. Instrument som mäter personlighet (HEXACO-60) och Arbetstillfredsställelse (Minnesota Job Satisfaction Questionnaire) användes. Den insamlade datan har sedan sammanställts och analyserats i Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 28 (SPSS).Personlighetsdragen Extroversion och Conscientiousness visade sig vara signifikanta och korrelera positivt gentemot Arbetstillfredsställelse. Personlighetsdraget Emotionality visade sig vara signifikant och korrelerade negativt gentemot Arbetstillfredsställelse. När designifikanta personlighetsdragen kontrollerades i regressionsanalysen tillsammans med studiens kontrollvariabler (Informellt lärande och Hälsotillstånd) gentemot Arbetstillfredsställelse förlorade Extroversion sin signifikans. Conscientiousness ochEmotionality fortsatte vara signifikanta och korrelera gentemot Arbetstillfredsställelse.Resultatet visar att personlighet kan komma att vara relaterat till individens grad av Arbetstillfredsställelse hos HR-anställda. 

Abstract [en]

For many years, the personality of individuals has been studied and it has been shown that our personality traits affect how we act, handle and experience situations in our lives. This means that individuals' experience of Job Satisfaction can be associated with one's personality traits. With the help of this information, employers can gain knowledge about employees' perceived Job Satisfaction and with the help of this, they can ensure that employees feel comfortable at their workplace and feel good. The purpose of this thesis is to study the relationship between personality and Job Satisfaction among HR employees. To carry out the study, a quantitative method has been used. The HR departments of several different organizations have been contacted to collect data in the form of a questionnaire that contains questions regarding background, personality, job satisfaction, informal learning and health status. Instruments that measure personality (HEXACO-60) and Job Satisfaction (the Minnesota Job Satisfaction Questionnaire) have been used. The collected data has then been compiled and analyzed in the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 28 (SPSS).Personality traits Extroversion and Conscientiousness were found to be significant and correlate positively with Job Satisfaction. The personality trait Emotionality turned out to be significant and correlate negatively with Job Satisfaction. When the significant personality traits were checked in the regression analysis together with the study's control variables (Informal learning and Health status) in relation to Job Satisfaction, Extroversion lost its significance. Conscientiousness and Emotionality continued to be significant and correlated with Job Satisfaction. The results show that personality may be related to the individual's degree of Job Satisfaction among HR employees.
