The purpose of the study was to examine aspects of job satisfaction among Hispanic and non-Hispanic food service workers, so that employers might devise better working environments and benefits to increase employee retention and longevity. Food service workers from state schools and state hospitals in Texas completed questionnaires administered on-site by the researcher. Participants included 640 persons, 111 of whom were Hispanic. Job satisfaction was measured using a numerical rating scale. Sixty-eight items measuring the total job satisfaction score were grouped in three areas: the work itself, relationships with people at work, and compensation and benefits.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a The purpose of the study was to examine aspects of job satisfaction among Hispanic and non-Hispanic food service workers, so that employers might devise better working environments and benefits to increase employee retention and longevity. Food service workers from state schools and state hospitals in Texas completed questionnaires administered on-site by the researcher. Participants included 640 persons, 111 of whom were Hispanic. Job satisfaction was measured using a numerical rating scale. Sixty-eight items measuring the total job satisfaction score were grouped in three areas: the work itself, relationships with people at work, and compensation and benefits.
520 $a An additional part of the study was a two-step rank-order measurement of benefits that were available and a list of possible benefits. Seventy-one supervisors of food service workers completed this part of the questionnaire.
520 $a The data were analyzed using ANOVA and MANOVA. For the Hispanic subsample, demographic variables which were related to greater job satisfaction were age (under 30), number of children (three or less), family's total income (more than $1 5,000), level of education (above high school), and length of employment with the current employer (less than five years).
520 $a Hispanic employees were more satisfied with the work itself and with their compensation than non-Hispanics. No significant differences were found for Hispanics and non-Hispanics in their satisfaction with relationships with people at work. Hispanic and non-Hispanic managers were more satisfied with the work itself, relationships with people at work, and benefits than were non-managers.
520 $a Analysis of the rank-order scale of present benefits and possible benefits showed that day care and free meals were less important to both Hispanic and non-Hispanic employees than supervisors perceived. Dental insurance, support for further education, and job training were more important to both Hispanic and non-Hispanic employees than supervisors perceived.
520 $a Adult education courses in vocational education are needed for additional job training, career development, and personal development. Recruitment of Hispanics into occupational home economics food-related courses in secondary and postsecondary schools is critical. Replicating the study in the private food service sector is recommended.
