As job satisfaction maintenance and its promotion always are as determinant factors for organizations, so this research is performed with the purpose of examining the effect of vacation and the kinds of holidays (i.e., national and religious) on job satisfaction in Khuzestan province in 1388. this research was performed by applying survey plan and about 330 employers from 6 organizations participated and two sampling methods such as Base on Purpose (for vacation) and Multistage Cluster (for holidays) were also employed.Then, according to 5 hypotheses considered in this research, a standard questionnaire that evaluated job satisfaction before and after vacation and holidays were distributed among the participants. The data were analyzed by applying T-test of dependent and independent groups, ANOVA and correlation. vacation, religious and national holidays (i.e., joyful) did not have any effect on job satisfaction, but in religious holidays (Tassoa and Ashora) the job satisfaction in employers increased, as after vacation, and their views toward work improved. vacation did not have any effect on increasing the job satisfaction but lacking of this opportunity or its low quality could lead to work force dissatisfaction and resulted in bringing about difficulties for organizations (Herzburg Theory).
