As a result of empirical analysis, first, it was found that the sub-variables of employment relationship characteristics such as employment security, compensation fairness, co-worker's relationship, and participation opportunities all had a positive (+) significant effect on job satisfaction. Second, as a result of examining the effect of job autonomy on the effect of employment relationship characteristics on job satisfaction, it was found that job autonomy had a significant moderating effect on the effect of compensation fairness and participation opportunity on job satisfaction among the sub-variables. That is, it was found that job satisfaction increases as compensation fairness and participation opportunities increase, and job autonomy increases this influence.

본 연구는 근로자의 고용관계특성 즉, 고용보장성, 보상공정성, 동료관계, 참여기회가 직무만족에 미치는 영향에 대해 살펴보고, 고용관계특성과 직무만족 간의 관계에 대한 직무자율성의 조절효과 즉, 조절 정도 및 방향성에 대한 실증적 연구를 목적으로 한다. 본 연구를 위한 독립변수로는 고용관계특성으로 하위변수로는 고용보장성, 보상공정성, 동료관계, 참여기회가 있으며, 조절변수로 직무자율성, 종속변수로 직무만족을 설정하였다. 실증분석 결과 첫째로, 고용관계특성의 하위변수인 고용보장성, 보상공정성, 참여기획, 동료관계 모두가 직무만족에 정(+)적으로 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타나 선행연구들의 결과를 지지하고 있다. 둘째, 고용관계특성이 직무만족에 미치는 영향에 대해 직무자율성의 조절효과를 살펴본 결과, 하위변수 중 보상공정성과 참여기회가 직무만족에 미치는 영향에 대해 직무자율성이 유의한 조절효과를 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 즉 보상공정성과 참여기회가 증가할수록 직무만족이 증가하고 직무자율성이 이러한 영향력을 증가시키는 것으로 확인되었다.
