Maslow's Hierachy of Needs Theory

Question 1

What did MASLOW’S theory suggest?

Answer 1

• There are five levels in a hierarchy of human needs that employees need to have filled at work.
• Workers are motivated by having each level of the need met in order as they move up the hierarchy.
• The levels of needs are physical, security, social, self-esteem, self-fulfilment.
• Workers must have lower levels of needs met fully by a firm before being motivated by the next level.
