Abraham Maslow’s theory of motivation is one of the most influential theories in the field of management, organizational behaviour, and public administration. It explains that human behaviour is driven by the desire to satisfy different types of needs, which are arranged in a hierarchical order. Maslow proposed that an individual seeks to satisfy lower-level needs before progressing to higher-level needs. This theory has been widely applied in administrative systems to understand employee behaviour, improve organizational efficiency, and enhance workplace motivation. Maslow introduced the concept of the Hierarchy of Needs in 1943, representing human needs in five levels. According to him, an unsatisfied need acts as a motivator, while a satisfied need no longer motivates an individual. Therefore, administrators should identify the unmet needs of employees and create conditions that help satisfy them. The first level consists of physiological needs, which are the most basic requirements for human survival. These include food, water, shelter, clothing, rest, and adequate wages. In an administrative organization, these needs are fulfilled by providing fair salaries, reasonable working hours, proper office facilities, and adequate leave. Unless these needs are met, employees are unlikely to focus on higher-level goals. The second level comprises safety and security needs. After physiological needs are fulfilled, individuals seek protection from physical and economic risks. In the workplace, this includes job security, pension benefits, health insurance, safe working conditions, and protection against arbitrary actions. Government organizations often provide these benefits through service rules, retirement benefits, and
