Education and society This research examines the influence of workplace learning on their job satisfaction among employees of Agrobank headquarters in Kuala Lumpur. In addition, the research aims to investigate the degree of workplace engagement that the employees are experiencing or satisfied in their work, to identify the workplace underlying factors and to gauge the differences in the degree of workplace learning engagement and job satisfaction for different demographic variables. The study was conducted using mixed-methods research where both questionnaire survey and structured interview were applied. Fifty (50) respondents took part in this survey and ten (10) employees were interviewed.

The overall level of job satisfaction was at medium level. Although female employees were reported to experience higher job satisfaction than the male employees however the mean difference between those two genders is very small.
