The purpose of this study is to explore and evaluate the relationship between motivation factors (MF) and job satisfaction (JS) in the Royal Malaysian Navy (RMN) personnel. There are among the 250 personnel who are serving at Royal Malaysian Navy Head Quarters (RMN HQ), and questionnaires have been distributed to them for data gathering. The study adopted the Herzberg’s Motivation-Hygiene Theory (1959) as a framework in determining the relationship between MFs and JS among the personnel. To simplify, when an individual has a high level of MFs, which in this study refers to the opportunity for personal growth, promotion opportunity, responsibility, recognition and achievement, the level of satisfaction in doing his/her job is also increased. While for JS refers to workers' who are happy with their job, despite any kind of job, with or without supervision the workers will do their best in doing their work. JS can be measured in cognitive, affective, and behavioural components. Having JS will make an individual more positive and motivated to work independently. SPSS
