The topic of this master thesis is satisfaction and embeddedness of the workplace of employees in non-profit organizations. The aim of this master thesis was to explore the job satisfaction and embeddedness of a selected sample of employees and volunteers within nonprofit organizations.In the introductory part of the paper, the concept of motivation itself is discussed, the types and theories of motivation. The topics of human resource management in non-profit organizations were also covered. The topic of differences in human resource management in non-profit organizations and profit-oriented organizations was discussed, as well as the challenges that non-profit organizations face when managing them. The next topic I dealt with in this master thesis is the embeddedness of employees in the workplace. The concept of employee embeddedness in the workplace tells us how (un)prepared employees are to leave the workplace where they currently work and what are the motives for them to leave or change. A survey was used, which consisted of 51 questions, which were divided into three thematic units. The first contains general information about the participants. In the second unit, a set of questions was used by Paul E. Spector (1997.) to examine employee satisfaction at the workplace. The third and last part includes a set of 7 questions that examine the embeddedness of employees in the workplace. The survey included 50 respondents from the European Union and other European countries, more precisely a total of 13 different countries. The structure of respondents are employees or volunteers in non-profit organizations. The results are presented graphically and textually analyzed. Also, at the end of the paper, the questions from the questionnaire itself are attached, available in Croatian.
