## Pearson's product-moment correlation
##
## data: hr$satisfaction_level and hr$last_evaluation
## t = 12.933, df = 14997, p-value < 2.2e-16
## alternative hypothesis: true correlation is not equal to 0
## 95 percent confidence interval:
## 0.08916727 0.12082195
## sample estimates:
## cor
## 0.1050212
The p-value is less than alpha (0.01) therefore we reject the Ho and conclude that there is a positive correlation between satisfaction level and last evaluation
As last evaluation increases, satisfaction level increases slightly

## data: hr$satisfaction_level and hr$average_montly_hours
## t = -2.4556, df = 14997, p-value = 0.01408
## alternative hypothesis: true correlation is not equal to 0
## 95 percent confidence interval:
## -0.036040356 -0.004045605
## sample estimates:
## cor
## -0.02004811
The p-value is greater than alpha (0.01) therefore we retain the Ho and conclude that there is no correlation between satisfaction level and average monthly hoursn
The amount of hours has no effect on employee satisfaction

## data: hr$satisfaction_level and hr$time_spend_company
## t = -12.416, df = 14997, p-value < 2.2e-16
## alternative hypothesis: true correlation is not equal to 0
## 95 percent confidence interval:
## -0.11668153 -0.08499948
## sample estimates:
## cor
## -0.1008661
The p-value is less than alpha (0.01) therefore we reject the Ho and conclude that there is a negative correlation between satisfaction level and time spent at the company
As time spent at the company increases, satisfaction level decreases slightly

## 0.1277549
The p-value is less than alpha (0.01) therefore we reject the Ho and conclude that there is a positive correlation between average monthly hours and time spent at the company
As time spent at the company increases, average monthly hours increases slightly
