Work Design and Job Satisfaction among College Teachers: An Empirical Investigation

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between work design characteristics and job satisfaction among college teachers in higher education institutions. Using a sample of 250 faculty members, the research investigates how various dimensions of work design; including autonomy, task significance, and social support, influence overall job satisfaction and workplace effectiveness. The findings suggest that work design elements significantly impact teacher satisfaction and performance, with autonomy and task significance emerging as key predictors of job satisfaction.
