ABSTRACT
The first part of the general analysis is the summary of the statements made by male factory workers about the various aspects of their work situation. The analysis of workers' comments on their bosses is a little more complicated, as comments were made on bosses of different grades. The four distinct aspects of the whole work situation are taken in turn, starting with the worker's comments on his actual task. The summary classifications set out below are therefore a practical compromise between categories the majority of which would include one statement only and categories of broad content because they are in the same dimension. The elucidation of the worker's satisfactions in work by the analysis of relatively undefined comments, which are for the most part in his own vocabulary, is likely to give results which differ from those of the usual kind of morale survey, if only in that they are more detailed.
