Abstract
This study examines in detail the impact of worker morale on productivity within the Indian building and construction sector. Despite its rapid growth, the Indian construction industry still faces problems with productivity and job satisfaction among employees. A primary qualitative approach was used for the research where extensive interviews were carried out on supervisors as well as workers in this field. The key findings show that there is a significant relationship between output levels and motivation among staff members. The main causes of de-motivation were identified as long working hours, lack of work-life balance and financial instability. Task oriented approach to job design, flexible scheduling was shown to be effective methods of increasing motivation and productivity according to this investigation. The study concludes with suggesting that it could be better for enterprises if they considered some factors which would motivate their employees more especially those working in Indian construction industry while at same time also looking into task-based approaches towards works achievement. Financial security may also need to be provided for these people who may not have any other alternative source income apart from this one; Additionally, it is important that employers come up with programs designed at making sure every employee’s life outside work does not suffer because she has invested all her time into such an organization i.e., they should provide necessary support systems which will enable them achieve balance between these two areas. Finally, researchers believe that more needs done so as improve knowledge base on what motivates people engage themselves in tasks related buildings since doing this will lead higher output levels thus meeting growing demand within Indian Building & Construction Sector.
