Herzberg two factor theory has been tested as hypothesis for which leads were generated that the level of motivators and satisfies for both private and public organizations vary in broader range, hence the level of factors that mainly influence the motives of employees for both sectors also vary on broader perspective. These hypotheses are tested with support in order to compare public and private employees working in Pakistan. Public employees in different public and private sector organizations were found with higher level of Motivation gained with high task orientation and personal growth.
