The Law on Civil Service of Mongolia came into effect on June 1, 1995. According to this law, civil servants are representatives of public policy implementation, and their level of education and training is the most important key to providing high quality public services to citizens. Therefore, the civil service strives to have the best human resources. The criminal justice system relies heavily on forensic science. Many previous scholars discovered that training has a positive affect on employee job satisfaction around the world. But there are no studies on the link between job training and job satisfaction of employee in the forensic science organization in the Mongolia. This study examines how training provided by the Mongolian National Institute of Forensic Science (NIFS) affects employee job satisfaction.
This research was a cross-sectional and quantitative survey research. Using simple random selection from a population of 250 central public officials, the study examined a sample of 173 employees of the Mongolian central NIFS. Through a single survey using updated work training questionnaire (Mugenda & Mugenda, 2003) and job satisfaction survey (Brayfield-Rothe, 1951), the viewpoint of employees about job training and job satisfaction was gathered. The data was examined using statistical processes such as descriptive analysis, factor analysis, VIF test, ANOVA, correlation and regression analysis in SAS software.
The main conclusion of this study was that job training significantly affects employees' job satisfaction at the National Institute of Forensic Science of Mongolia. As a result of regression analysis, job training has a significant effect on job satisfaction even after controlling other factors that affect job satisfaction, such as supervision, opportunities and rewards, benefits, and coworkers.
The policy implications of the results of the research are to fully reform the training plan of the National Institute of Forensic Science of Mongolia and increase the job satisfaction of employees by incorporating high-level professional training content. In this way, a high level of satisfaction will be achieved and the services provided to the citizens will be improved and the government mechanism will become a solid foundation.
Further research will include a detailed study of the local organizations in the National Institute of Forensic Science of Mongolia. Finding out what influences their training system and employee job satisfaction is the key objective. It will contribute to better local employee satisfaction.
