  • Abstract:
  • The task of teaching becomes challenging due to rapid technological and scientific advancement and hence teachers satisfaction and dissatisfaction in performing their duties is utmost important for better delivery of education. More particularly, job satisfaction of women teachers who are working in different secondary schools is a vital issue for the researchers. Besides teaching, women teachers play multifarious roles in the society including rearing and caring children at home. The present study was conducted on Job Satisfaction among the Women Teachers of Secondary Schools of Dhemaji District in Assam. The study was conducted on a sample of 81 women teachers from eight secondary schools by using a standardised ‘Job Satisfaction Scale’ developed by Diixit (1993). The study found that 25.93% of women teachers (respondents) were highly satisfied; 45.6% were moderately and 28.85% showed low satisfaction towards their jobs. There was no significant difference between women teachers working in rural and urban schools; married and unmarried women teachers; and trained and untrained women teachers of secondary schools of Dhemaji District with regard to their job satisfaction. However, experienced teachers were more satisfied with their jobs than the inexperienced teachers.
