Abstract
In a survey of white collar workers, age and tenure had positive, linear relationships to overall job satisfaction. Age had a stronger relationship with satisfaction in males than tenure; the reverse held for females. When six facets of satisfaction were examined, the relationships with age and tenure became more complex.Keywords
