Abstract

Due to an increase in the number of Muslims visiting Malaysia, there is a growing need for Shariah Compliance Hotel (SCH). The ultimate goal of SCH is to allow them to go through the routine of being Muslim even while traveling. Most of the researches in this area are focusing on success factors towards increasing customer’s satisfaction and lack of empirical evidence on study of employees’ job satisfaction. Moreover, in today’s business world, the most important component in keeping an employee satisfied is the workplace environment. The workplace of today is unique, diversified, and constantly changing. As a result, the Islamic workplace environment (IWE) has an impact on employees’ job satisfaction since a religiously positive work environment increases morale and motivation. IWE has a direct impact on the human senses, resulting in subtle changes in interpersonal relationships and consequently productivity. The element to develop IWE includes physical, social, psychological, and job-related issues. Therefore, the main purpose of this research is to examine Islamic workplace environment (IWE) influences employees’ job satisfaction particularly in PNB Ilham Resort, Malaysia. The target respondents of this study are hotel employees from PNB Ilham Resort, Malaysia. The study used the data analysis through Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS). A structured survey was distributed among employees at the hotel. The results of this study provide important evidence of the impact of the IWE on employees’ job satisfaction.
