This study explores the relationship between work rewards and
job satisfaction with moderating effect of age differences. It
is an empirical study and a sample of 84 full time employees of
FESCO (Faisalabad Electric Supply Company, Pakistan) was taken.
The results of this study reveal that job rewards are proved to
be strong determinant of job satisfaction. Job satisfaction is
more related to extrinsic rewards for employees than intrinsic
rewards. The age differences have moderating effect on job
satisfaction as it increases with rise in age.
Key words:
