Analysing Job Satisfaction and Job Stress among Private College Faculties

Abstract

The human experience includes a healthy dose of stress, which can have a negative impact on both job satisfaction and performance. Both the workplace and the outside world can be sources of stress for employees. Faculty members are those individuals who devote their time and energy to influencing the lives of their students by imparting "knowledge, love, care, and patience" to them. Faculty members are the primary pillars upon which every student's future is built and upon whom the student relies for assistance in achieving success. In this study, the factors of Overburdened, Enigma, Private college environment, Top management support, and Colleagues support were examined to determine their influence on job satisfaction among faculty members working at private colleges. The researchers relied primarily on a cross-sectional survey, and the selection of 230 college faculties was carried out using the convenience sampling method. In order to collect the necessary information, a structured questionnaire was utilized. The research also showed that being overburdened (with a significance level of ((“β= .18, p< .05”) and working in a private college environment (with a significance level of (“β= .13, p< .05”) contributed a significant but relatively minor effect to the variance in job satisfaction. The findings also showed that there was a negative relationship between job satisfaction and the support provided by colleagues (β= -.02, p = not significant).
