organization. The level of the employees’ motivation was examined through the employees’
attitudes about the level of their security in the organization, organizational belonging and the
level of self-confirmation. The objectives of this paper were to determine the level of the
employees’ motivation in the organization and to examine whether the level of motivation
differs according to the observed variables. The survey of employees was conducted in different
organizations in Belgrade during the year 2017. The results indicate that the level of the
employees’ motivation is unsatisfactory. In addition, it was shown that the level of the
employees’ self-confirmation is lower than the level of the other motivation indicators.
