Study of Job Satisfaction of Secondary School Teachers of Amritsar

Abstract

This study aims to explore the job satisfaction levels of secondary school teachers concerning their gender, locale, and type of institution. The job satisfaction scale developed by Dr. Meera Dixit (2013) was employed for data collection. The sample comprised 100 secondary school teachers, including 40 males and 60 females, 42 from rural areas, and 58 from urban areas, with 45 teaching in government schools and 55 in schools located in Amritsar District. Data analysis was conducted using the “t” test. The findings indicate significant differences in job satisfaction mean scores between male and female secondary teachers, between rural and urban secondary teachers, and among different types of institutions.
