Which is NOT a motivator?

work content
B
career opportunity
C
salary
D
development
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Correcting any of these problems will remove dissatisfaction, but will not motivate the employee. Salary is the most interesting hygiene factor because it is often used in an attempt to motivate even though salary is not a motivator.

Detailed explanation-2: -Higher performance, higher pay: A well-paid employee is usually a highly motivated employee, so companies that reward high performing employees with raises will inspire those employees to keep working at a high level and give others something to strive for.

Detailed explanation-3: -Motivation Factors are challenging work, recognition, responsibility and personal growth. Research shows that pay raises won’t turn us into a productivity machine. In fact, giving creative people bonuses demotivates us and leads to poorer performance.

Detailed explanation-4: -Personal motivations form a great part of it too – higher salary enables you to afford more and better things and it is simply human nature to want this. Not everybody, however, is willing to put in the work to achieve this salary so motivation must be accompanied by actual job performance and results.

Detailed explanation-5: -Frederick Herzberg theorized that employee satisfaction has two dimensions: “hygiene” and motivation. Hygiene issues, such as salary and supervision, decrease employees’ dissatisfaction with the work environment. Motivators, such as recognition and achievement, make workers more productive, creative and committed.
