Answer to Question 1

E
Explanation: E) Herzberg suggested that the opposite of satisfaction is no satisfaction, and the opposite of dissatisfaction is no dissatisfaction. Removing dissatisfying characteristics from a job does not necessarily make the job satisfying. When hygiene factors are adequate, people will not be dissatisfied; neither will they be satisfied.

Answer to Question 2

B
Explanation: B) According to the two-factor theory, conditions such as quality of supervision, pay, company policies, physical working conditions, relationships with others, and job security are considered hygiene factors or extrinsic factors.
