  • Abstract:
  • satisfaction among teachers in higher education, focusing on the roles of work environment, compensation, professional development opportunities, work-life balance, and recognition. Employing a quantitative research design, data was collected through a structured survey administered to a representative sample of higher education faculty. The analysis reveals a strong correlation between job satisfaction and the aforementioned predictors, with these factors explaining 53.1% of the variance in job satisfaction. The regression model is well-fitted, with an adjusted R² of 0.506, and no significant autocorrelation issues were detected. Notably, work-life balance emerged as the most significant predictor of job satisfaction, while recognition, though positive, was not statistically significant within this model. The findings underscore the critical importance of fostering a supportive work environment, providing equitable compensation, offering opportunities for professional growth, and maintaining a balance between work and personal life to enhance job satisfaction among higher education faculty. These insights can inform policy and organizational strategies aimed at improving faculty satisfaction and overall institutional effectiveness.
