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.
