This study investigates the factors driving job satisfaction among employees in Surat City's diamond manufacturing industry. Surat is a globally recognized hub for diamond processing, with thousands of workers engaged in the labour-intensive industry. The study evaluates various aspects that drives job satisfaction, including workplace facilities, emotional, financial stability and job structure. Data was collected from 100 employees through a structured questionnaire and statistical tools like SPSS and SmartPLS were used for analysis. The findings show that employees are generally satisfied with workplace conditions such as office seating, safety measures and managerial support. However, concerns exist regarding mental health support, canteen cleanliness, financial benefits and work-life balance. Demographic factors, including gender, age and experience, play a role in determining job satisfaction. Experienced employees report higher satisfaction levels, while newer employees express mixed opinions. Emotional, financial and psychological factors have a significant impact on job satisfaction, with financial stress reducing overall satisfaction. The study concludes that for long-term employee retention and enhanced job satisfaction, diamond manufacturers need to improve working conditions, offer better financial incentives, ensure job security and introduce mental health support programs.
