| dc.description.abstract | The study was undertaken with the objective of analysing the work environment in the Krishi Bhavans in all the three subdivisions of Thrissur district and to find out the major components influencing work environment and in turn work efficiency. The respondents for the study included 60 Agricultural Officers, 106 Agricultural Assistants and 12 Assistant Directors of Agriculure of the State Department of Agriculture. Thirteen components of work environment were included for the study and their relative influences on work effectiveness were analysed. Majority of Agricultural officers perceived their work environment as moderately congenial, but in case of Agricultural Assistant majority was in the more congenial one. In case of work effectiveness 70 per cent of Krishi Bhavans belonged to the more effective group. Among the selected components of work environment clarity of task, managing problems, interpersonal trust, organisational belongingness, and span of control were found to be more significant and exhibited relatively higher influence in predicting the variation in the work effectiveness. The highest direct and indirect effect on work effectiveness was due to clarity of task and interpersonal trust respectively. Different constraints experienced by the officials affecting their performance were identified. Lack of communication of research findings was found to be the most important constraint. The study drew attention to the emergent need of effective measure to overcome the prevailing constraints in the work environment so as to enhance the work effectiveness. | en_US |
