Saudi Workers In The Private Research Proposal

I will give them two weeks to complete the surveys, after which I will collect them and analyze them. 4.4 Sample size and sampling method

The sample size will be between 40-50 people. The sampling method include surveys as well as direct conversations. The employee surveys will gauge satisfaction with salary, job security, work environment, feedback, training, and other factors relating to job satisfaction. The employer surveys will ask employers to rate Saudi employees in areas such as work ethic, ability, attitude, and skills, especially as compared to workers of other nationalities.

4.5 Method of Data Analysis

The surveys should yield a set of simple, definite answers which be compared on the same criteria. The open-ended interviews should yield a deeper, more diverse set of answers which will be analyzed for patterns and common concerns. Any patterns not reflected in the survey questions will be set aside for further inquiry.

Each employee survey will be sorted based on how the respondent prioritized the different needs, determined by question 8 of the employee survey. After the surveys are sorted, they will be scored based on how the respondent feels the employer is handling each need. The answers regarding each needs will be weighted based on how each need was prioritized by the respondent.
