Abstract
This study has investigated the job satisfaction of public primary school teachers in terms of intrinsic aspect of job life, interpersonal relations, attitude of the management, physical facilities, working conditions, and benefits/incentives as an indicator of their job commitment. Through a multi stage sampling, 258 public primary school teachers were selected to seek their opinion through an adapted version of job satisfaction scale (JSS). Both descriptive and inferential statistics were employed to calculate and compare the level of job satisfaction and determine the level of job commitment. Teachers have shown their highest level of job satisfaction over intrinsic aspect of job life followed by the interpersonal relations, attitude of the management, physical facilities, and working conditions and placed benefits/incentives at the lowest level. The overall level of job satisfaction of teachers was at a high to very high level that speaks of their strong job commitment and the intention of their majority to continue their current job supported this argument. Increasing the benefits/incentives and improving physical facilities at schools were the major recommendations.
