Group, a sample of 100 respondents was taken for carrying out research.
For this research data are collected from the questionnaire which were being filled
up by the employees who were working in the organization. After collecting the

mostly for employee’s happiness in the organization.
In the organization, majority of employees are male, married and belong to young
age group. Employees are somewhat happy with their workplace. Employees are
somewhat satisfied with the working relationship with supervisor and are motivated
with individual work. So, from the findings I can conclude that most of the
employees are satisfied and happy in the organisation.

1.5 OVERVIEW ABOUT THE TOPIC:
1.5.1 Concept of Happiness Index:
The happiness index is a continuous monitoring tool that analyses staff feedback in
real-time. As index is always available, companies can track their worker’s feelings,
voice & work satisfaction as they evolve. “Happiness is subjective to each
individual”. This tool looks at eleven specific & customisable workplace factors &
enables an organisation to track the trends in each area. Ultimately, to identify
which part of the business & topic areas need a specific focus.
Employees happiness in the workplace is usually dependent on the work
environment. Maintaining a level of employee’s happiness at work has become
more significant & relevant due to the intensification of work caused by economic
uncertainty & increase in competition. In fact, companies with higher than average
employee happiness exhibit better financial performance & customer satisfaction.
It is thus beneficial for companies to create & maintain positive work environments
& leadership that will contribute to the happiness of their employees.
1.5.2 Intended Uses of the Happiness Index:
The Happiness Index is a tool for the use of researchers, community, organizers and
policy makers seeking to understand and enhance individual happiness, community
well-being, social justice, economic equality, and environmental sustainability. The
index was formed with the intent to promote social change by making the survey
instrument and data freely available to community organizers, educators,
researchers, students, organizations, government, and more.
1.5.3 Domains of Happiness:
The Happiness Index measures life satisfaction, the feeling of happiness, and other
happiness domains: psychological well-being, health, time balance, community,
social support, education, arts and culture, environment, governance, material well-
being, and work. The qualities measured in the domains are as follows:
1. Psychological Well-being: optimism, sense of purpose and of accomplishment.

18 | P a g e
2. Health: energy level and ability to perform everyday activities.
3. Time Balance: enjoyment, feeling rushed, and sense of leisure.
4. Community: sense of belonging, volunteerism, and sense of safety.
5. Social Support: satisfaction with friends and family, feeling loved, and feeling
lonely.
6. Education, Arts, and Culture: access to cultural and educational events and
diversity.
7. Environment: access to nature, pollution and conservation.
8. Governance: trust in government, sense of corruption, and competency.
9. Material well-being: financial security and meeting basic needs.
10. Work: compensation, autonomy, and productivity.
1.5.4 Shortcomings of Happiness Index:
1. The measurement of Happiness Index reflects the fact that happiness is a deeply
personal matter and subjective. However, arriving at a definition of happiness
and working it out is difficult.
2. The paradox of happiness is difficult to measure.
3. Happiness is too vague and multifaceted a concept to define clearly and
precisely.
4. Even if it could be defined, it is essentially qualitative concept that is difficult
to quantify and measure with any confidence.
5. Even if it could be measured, designing and implementing policy based on
happiness raises a number of ethical and political issues that cannot be solved
by improving the science of measurement.
1.5.5 The impact of happiness:
The fundamental reason why happiness or positivity is so important is because it is
extremely vital for achieving our own goals in life. Happy people usually live for
longer on an average, have stronger immune systems, endure pain better, are more

19 | P a g e
content with jobs and are more productive. Marriages too are successful among
happy couples. Happiness is a choice and we must always choose to be happy under
all circumstances. We have a very short life to live, and therefore, we should
surround ourselves with love, kindness and abundant happiness.
1.5.6 Factors responsible for employee’s happiness at workplace:
Happiness is not fundamentally rooted in obtaining sensual pleasures & money, but
those factors can influence the well-being of an individual at the workplace.
However, freedom & autonomy at a workplace have the most effect on the
employees’ level of happiness & other important factors are gaining knowledge &
the ability to influence the self’s working hours.
1.5.6.1 Organisational culture:
Organisational culture represents how employees are treated by their bosses &
peers. An effective organisation should have a culture that considers employees
happiness & encourages employee satisfaction. An employee feels satisfied not
through comparisons with other peers, but through his/her own happiness &
awareness of being in harmony with their colleagues.

20 | P a g e
1.5.6.2 Employee salary:
There are many reasons that can contribute to happiness at work. However, when
individuals are asked with regards to why they work, money is one of the most
common answers as it provides people with sustenance, security & privilege.
1.5.6.3 Job security:
Job security is an important factor to determine whether employees feel happiness
at work. The expectation of the job availability has been related with the job-related
well-being. And a higher level of job security corresponds to a higher level of job
satisfaction alongside a higher level of well-being.
1.5.6.4 Career development:
The option for moving or shifting to alternative roles motivates the employee’s
participation in the workplace. It means that if an employee can see the future
potential for a promotion, motivation levels will increase and ultimately their
happiness levels will also increase.
1.5.6.5 Work-life balance:
The non-work activity is not limited to family life only but also to various
occupation & activities of which one’s life is composed. When employees &
workers have control over their work schedule, they are more capable of balancing
work & non-work related activities.
1.5.6.6 Working Relationship:
Co-workers & colleagues are an important social group & relationships with them
can be a source of pleasure. Employees tend to be happier & more hardworking
when they are in good working environment.
1.5.6.7 Leadership:
In relations to the work place, successful leadership will structure and develop
relationships amongst employees and consequently, employees will empower each
other. Feelings, including happiness, are often hidden by employees and should be
identified for effective communication in the workplace.
So, these all are the factors that influence the employee’s happiness at workplace.
