Description This paper aims at empirically investigating job satisfaction on job performance of thesailors in Rapid Action Boat Squadron in Sri Lanka Navy. Data were collected from 219sailors using Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire (MSQ) and the structured questionnairedeveloped by Udayakumar (2003) was used for measuring job performance. PearsonCorrelation Coefficient and Curve Fit Analysis were employed for the analysis of data. Thestudy substantiated that there is a fairly positive relationship between job satisfaction and jobperformance of the sailors. The results suggest that the satisfaction aspect on its own doesnecessarily lead to improved individual performance and assumedly organizationaleffectiveness. Therefore, it needs to implement satisfaction-performance model effectivelythrough specific practices. The paper empirically investigated satisfaction-performancemodel in Rapid Action Boat Squadron of Sri Lanka Navy context and offers practicalimplications for top level administration of the Squadron seeking effective implementation ofthe satisfaction-performance model.Key Word(s) : Job Satisfaction, Job Performance, Rapid Action Boat Squadron of Sri LankaNavy
