Labour welfare includes provision of various facilities and amenities in and around the work place for the better life of the workers. The logic behind providing welfare facilities is to create efficient, healthy, loyal and satisfied labour force for the organization and for the nation as well. Conventionally, male and female are required to perform different duties at home. But as employees in industrial organizations, male and female are supposed to perform their duties irrespective of their gender. In this paper, various welfare measures introduced in the study units were analysed on the basis of the data collected from the male and female employees of these units. Items such as facilities of medical, health and safety, housing, recreation and education were considered for the analysis. The paper concluded that the overall satisfaction about welfare measures provided by different enterprises was not the same for male and female employees of those organizations.Keywords

Different employees may perceive the same job differently and it is those individual perceptions that determine whether or not an employee is satisfied with the job. Unemployed youths in Kerala are struggling to get Government jobs, even if the pay and status are low. This is because of the job security and promotion prospects. As a direct result of this, many overqualified employees could be found in various Government jobs in Kerala. The main thrust in the present study is to analyse job satisfaction among the overqualified employees in Government offices in Kerala. The questionnaire was framed so as to get the perception of the respondents to the six quality dimensions or constructs. The paper concluded that Minimum qualified employees had shown higher job satisfaction than over qualified employees.Keywords
