N1  - The study makes an attempt to examine the impact of job characteristics and role stress on job satisfaction among two different age groups—young age group (20-30 years) and middle age group (31-40 years)—among the employees of the Indian software industry. It examines whether the age groups moderate the impact of job characteristics and role stress on job satisfaction. The findings of the study reveal that skill variety, task significance and autonomy have more significant positive impact on job satisfaction among middle age group employees, whereas task identity and feedback have more significant positive impact on job satisfaction among young age group employees. The findings also reveal less negative impact of role conflict and high negative impact of role ambiguity on job satisfaction among middle age group software employees
