Maslow’s Theory

Physiological Needs: - Canadian people have more natural resources

and less population, so these needs are generally satisfied.

Physiological Needs: - Indian people have more natural resources as

well as high population, so they have to work hard to satisfy these
needs.

Safety Needs: - In Canada these needs must be taken care because a

general people require these needs more to satisfy himself.

Safety Needs: - In India these needs are more required because of high
population and less land place. So these needs are to be taken care.

Social Needs: - Some of these needs are widely accepted in Canada but
some are not given importance.

Social Needs: - In India also some of these needs are widely accepted
but some are not given importance.

Esteem Needs: - These needs are more important because Canada is a

grown country and financial strong country.

Esteem Needs: - These needs are also important because India is a

growing country, but financially not as strong as Canada.

Self-actualization Needs: - These needs are highly important because

Canadian people are more capable of achieving one’s potential.

Self-actualization Needs: - These needs are also important in India but

Indian people have to work hard to fulfill these needs because of high
population and high competitions.
Employment

Employment requirements are high in Canada because the population is

less in respect of land space and natural resources. And Canada is a
grown country like US.

Employment opportunities are less in India because of high population

and high number of younger people and lees number of industries to
apply.

Herzberg’s Theory

In India the job dissatisfaction is more because they more care about
hygiene factors or hygiene needs, and less care about motivators in
respect of hygiene.

In Canada the job satisfaction is more because they care more for
motivators in respect of hygiene.
Facts about Canada

Introduction: - A land of vast distances and rich natural resources,

Canada became a self-governing dominion in 1867 while retaining ties
to the British crown. Economically and technologically the nation has
developed in parallel with the US, its neighbor to the south across an
unfortified border. Canada faces the political challenges of meeting
public demands for quality improvements in health care and education
services, as well as responding to separatist concerns in predominantly
francophone Quebec. Canada also aims to develop its diverse energy
resources while maintaining its commitment to the environment.

Natural Resources: - iron ore, nickel, zinc, copper, gold, lead,

molybdenum, potash, diamonds, silver, fish, timber, wildlife, coal,
petroleum, natural gas, and hydropower

Population: - 33,390,141 (July 2007 est.)

total population: 99%

female: 99% (2003 est.)
Economy: - As an affluent, high-tech industrial society in the trillion-
dollar class, Canada resembles the US in its market-oriented economic
system, pattern of production, and affluent living standards. Since World
War II, the impressive growth of the manufacturing, mining, and service
sectors has transformed the nation from a largely rural economy into
one primarily industrial and urban. The 1989 US-Canada Free Trade
Agreement (FTA) and the 1994 North American Free Trade Agreement
(NAFTA) (which includes Mexico) touched off a dramatic increase in
trade and economic integration with the US. Given its great natural
resources, skilled labor force, and modern capital plant, Canada enjoys
solid economic prospects. Top-notch fiscal management has produced
consecutive balanced budgets since 1997, although public debate
continues over how to manage the rising cost of the publicly funded
healthcare system. Exports account for roughly a third of GDP. Canada
enjoys a substantial trade surplus with its principal trading partner, the
US, which absorbs about 85% of Canadian exports. Canada is the US'
largest foreign supplier of energy, including oil, gas, uranium, and
electric power.

Facts about India

Introduction: - The Indus Valley civilization, one of the oldest in the

world, dates back at least 5,000 years. Aryan tribes from the northwest
infiltrated onto Indian lands about 1500 B.C.; their merger with the
earlier Dravidian inhabitants created the classical Indian culture. Arab
incursions starting in the 8th century and Turkish in the 12th were
followed by those of European traders, beginning in the late 15th
century. By the 19th century, Britain had assumed political control of
virtually all Indian lands. Indian armed forces in the British army played
a vital role in both World Wars. Nonviolent resistance to British
colonialism led by Mohandas GANDHI and Jawaharlal NEHRU
brought independence in 1947. The subcontinent was divided into the
secular state of India and the smaller Muslim state of Pakistan. A third
war between the two countries in 1971 resulted in East Pakistan
becoming the separate nation of Bangladesh. Despite impressive gains
in economic investment and output, India faces pressing problems such
as the ongoing dispute with Pakistan over Kashmir, significant
overpopulation, environmental degradation, extensive poverty, and
ethnic and religious strife.

Languages: - English enjoys associate status but is the most important

is the national language and primary tongue of 30% of the people; there
are 14 other official languages: Bengali, Telugu, Marathi, Tamil, Urdu,
Gujarati, Malayalam, Kannada, Oriya, Punjabi, Assamese, Kashmiri,
Sindhi, and Sanskrit; Hindustani is a popular variant of Hindi/Urdu
spoken widely throughout northern India but is not an official language

Literacy: - definition: age 15 and over can read and write

total population: 61%
male: 73.4%
female: 47.8% (2001 census)

Economy: - India's diverse economy encompasses traditional village

farming, modern agriculture, handicrafts, a wide range of modern
industries, and a multitude of services. Services are the major source of
economic growth, accounting for more than half of India's output with
less than one third of its labor force. About three-fifths of the work force
is in agriculture, leading the UPA government to articulate an economic
reform program that includes developing basic infrastructure to improve
the lives of the rural poor and boost economic performance. The
government has reduced controls on foreign trade and investment.
Tariffs averaged 12.5% on non-agricultural items in 2006. Higher limits
on foreign direct investment were permitted in a few key sectors, such
as telecommunications. However, tariff spikes in sensitive categories,
including agriculture, and incremental progress on economic reforms
still hinder foreign access to India's vast and growing market.
Privatization of government-owned industries remained stalled in 2006,
and continues to generate political debate; populist pressure from within
the UPA government and from its Left Front allies continues to restrain
needed initiatives. The economy has posted an average growth rate of
more than 7% in the decade since 1996, reducing poverty by about 10
percentage points. India achieved 8.5% GDP growth in 2006,
significantly expanding manufacturing. India is capitalizing on its large
numbers of well-educated people skilled in the English language to
become a major exporter of software services and software workers.
Economic expansion has helped New Delhi continue to make progress
in reducing its federal fiscal deficit. However, strong growth - more than
8 percent growth in each of the last three years - combined with easy
consumer credit and a real estate boom is fueling inflation concerns. The
huge and growing population is the fundamental social, economic, and
environmental problem.
