Teachers’ Job Satisfaction and Work Performance

Abstract

Job satisfaction is a requirement for the work performance of the teacher. This study determined the relationship of teachers' job satisfaction and their work performance in the Division of Misamis Occidental during the school year 2018-2019. One hundred and four (104) school heads and three hundred and thirteen (313) teachers responded to the study. The researcher used the descriptive-correlational research design; and the Teacher Job Satisfaction Survey Questionnaire (TJSQ) and Individual Performance Commitment Review Form (IPCRF) as instruments. Mean, standard deviation, and Multiple Regression Analysis were the statistical tools used. Findings revealed that the teachers were highly satisfied with their job, and their work performance was very satisfactory. The satisfaction of teachers on school heads' supervision and job security inversely affect the teachers' work performance. Schools have to be provided with the faculty lounge so teachers can talk freely on their well-being. Human Resource Department officers have to include in their teacher retention strategies the teachers' welfare packages. Future researchers have to look into other factors that might predict the teachers' work performance.

Also, job satisfaction creates a positive working environment for all teachers in the same school; this increases their dedication to teaching, i.e.…”

“…Based on this, teachers' positive or negative emotions have a mediating role in terms of teachers' satisfaction or dissatisfaction with teaching as a job (Parveen & Bano, 2019). Although performance in teaching is dependent on job satisfaction (Baluyos et al, 2019), studies have generally focused on job satisfaction based on teacher emotions as an independent variable or teacher emotions have included satisfaction only as a subcategory (Atmaca et al, 2020;Nalipay et al, 2019;Rodrigo-Ruiz, 2016;Paul A. Schutz & Lee, 2014). However, as Collie et al (2016) explain, work and workplace-related issues intervene in teachers' psychology and work engagement.…”

Work Satisfaction Level of Private School Teachers in Yogyakarta Indonesia

“…In school organizations, the teacher is the most critical element because the teacher is the spearhead in the process of achieving school goals. School administrators and managers need to ensure teacher job satisfaction because although teacher performance influenced by many factors (KNigama & Surulivel, 2018), teacher job satisfaction is the main factor that influences it (Baluyos, Rivera, & Baluyos, 2019;Ram, 2013).
