Employee job satisfaction is vital in enhancing productivity, commitment, and retention in organizations. However, motorcycle dealership employees in the Philippines meet several barriers, including extended hours of work, low pay, a lack of benefits, and limited career growth for advancement. These challenges negatively impact job satisfaction, reducing productivity and dedication and increasing employee turnover. The study utilized a quantitative descriptive correlational research method to examine hygiene and motivational factors affecting job satisfaction among motorcycle employees in the 3rd district of Laguna, Philippines. The study found that hygiene factors such as working conditions, coworker relations, supervisor quality, base wage and salary, policies and rules, and status affect employee job satisfaction. Furthermore, Hygiene factors were identified as essential in increasing job satisfaction. Employers should prioritize addressing these elements to maintain and improve hygiene factors and focus on maintaining high levels of job satisfaction and providing opportunities for growth and advancement. Regular surveys or assessments should be conducted to continuously monitor and address hygiene factors. This study emphasizes the importance of understanding and enhancing employee job satisfaction to foster organizational productivity, commitment, and retention. The study aimed to contribute insights into how hygiene factors impact job satisfaction within the motorcycle dealership industry. However, the research focused solely on the 3rd district of Laguna, potentially limiting the generalizability of findings to other regions or industries.
