    [abstract] => The research investigates how automation influences satisfaction levels of mid-level manufacturing managers. The research continues existing studies about human-centered automation (Villani et al., 2021; Bhargava et al., 2020) by filling essential empirical validation gaps while analyzing the effects within middle-management positions. This research examines the effects automation technologies have on employee satisfaction through their compatibility with job responsibilities in combination with risk percepts and collaborative work patterns. A structured questionnaire obtained responses from mid-level managers who worked in different firms. Automated systems enhance performance quality and create better team relations if managers properly integrate the technology. Most participants who first feared automation consequences discovered that their jobs remained unaffected or improved according to their actual experiences. This showed the existence of this psychological divide between their fears and reality. The key elements which helped minimize employee concerns about automation implementation were open communication channels alongside employee involvement and participatory planning practice. The study reveals organizations must put human potential first when deploying automation systems as a part of their operations. The establishment of structured automation models helps create better relationships between workers and boost morale in teams. Research successively addresses a large knowledge deficit between private automation risk evaluations and corporate implementation practices. Employee success demands organizations to run ongoing training initiatives and implement programmatic communication methods when new technology emerges. The research findings demonstrate useful insights for all industries which experience digital transformation but concentrates its analysis on the manufacturing sector. Future research should apply a longitudinal design to properly study the developing effects of automation throughout time. With proper management automation provides organizations with both enhanced operational efficiency and satisfied employees and organizational resilience.
