摘要:This study was conducted to examine the effect of psychological empowerment dimensions on job satisfaction as well as to determine the most influential predictor on job satisfaction in one of the express logistics companies at Johor Bharu, Malaysia. About 120 employees from the respective company were selected conveniently to taking part in this study. The Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) was used to analyze data through three analyses which are descriptive, correlation and regression analysis. Based on descriptive analysis, the results indicated that majority of the respondents were male and Malay. Moreover, most of the respondents were aged between 30-39 years old, married and hold a certificate.
