Abstract:
The main purpose of the research is to determine the job satisfaction levels of school
administrators and teachers. The descriptive method based on screening model for
revealing the existing situation was used in the study. An attempt to determine the job
satisfaction levels of administrators and teachers in educational organizations was
made in this research. It was concluded in the research that the job satisfactions of
administrators and teachers regarding the management, additional payment, reward,
working conditions, workmates, the job itself and communication were mainly at
medium-level, and their satisfactions regarding wage and promotion were at low level.
The satisfaction or dissatisfaction experienced by school administrators and teachers
while working affect the structure and functioning of the school in which they work.
Accordingly, it is necessary to establish a school environment in which the job
satisfactions of school administrators and teachers are ensured for educational
organizations to achieve their objectives. Work saturation has been done in many
studies in the related field. However, it is thought-provoking if satisfaction is provided
to the schools. Taking all of these into consideration is thought that it would be
beneficial to carry out this study.

INVESTIGATION OF JOB SATISFACTION LEVELS OF SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS AND TEACHERS
1. Introduction
The most important source of the organization is the workers. Workers' performance
and efficiency are the most important factors that affect the success of the organizations.
The fact that they can show high performance and work efficiently depends on having
enough satisfaction from their job “k<it “<ık,
. As long as workers are satisfied
with their jobs and working environment, job satisfaction is ensured and they work
efficiently to the same degree. If the job performed is resulted as desired by the
individual, the individual becomes motivated and satisfaction is achieved. If the result
is not at the expected level, job dissatisfaction can be experienced in the individual
Köroğlu,
.
Simply, job satisfaction is an indication of how much a worker is satisfied with
the job (Vieira, 2005). Robbins defines job satisfaction as the worker's identification with
the organization and its objectives and desire to maintain membership in the
organization (Robbins, 1994). Job satisfaction is also expressed as employees' internal
evaluations as an output of their feelings, thoughts and behaviors towards job, job
environment and workmates, and an overall attitude towards their job Solmu<,
.
Çetinkanat defines job satisfaction as an emotional response given by an employee to
the work state (Çetinkanat, 2000). Tengilimoğlu defines job satisfaction as the difference
between employees' expectations and perceptions from the job and working
environment Tengilimoğlu,
. Locke, who is accepted to have made the broadest
definition regarding the job satisfaction, stated job satisfaction as "the pleasant and
positive feelings aroused in the person by the person' evaluation of his job and job experience"
(Izgar, 2008).
Based on the definitions given above, it is possible to group factors that form the
basis of job satisfaction under two groups as personal and organizational factors (Ünsar
et al, 2006). The main personal factors are age, gender, education level, marital status,
status in the workplace, term of office, socio-cultural environment and personality
structure, the organizational factors are the job and its nature, management and control,
wage, development and promotion opportunities, physical conditions of the workplace,
social

organizational climate and the working group 5zaydın and 5zdemir,

success,
Töz(n et
al, 2008). Although problems encountered in these factors lead to the decrease in
employees' job satisfactions, behaviors and consequences such as lack of continuity,
boredom, ignoring rules, complaining about the job, damaging the organization,
leaving the job, extravagance, false diseases and accidents may also occur in employees
”a<aran,
. The positive effects of these factors can lead employees to have high
level of job satisfaction and therefore can make great contributions such as performance

increase, productivity, productivity growth, low-level personnel turnover rate and
attracting qualified workers to the business Köroğlu,
Robbins,
”alcı,
Lunenberg and Ornstein, 2000; Rollinson and Broadfield, 2002).
Making employees become active and ensuring that they achieve satisfaction by
setting motivational factors in the job environment are the primary tasks of the leader.
Therefore, school administrators should pay attention to improve the working
conditions of the school and also to meet the individual and professional expectations
of teachers in order to ensure quality and efficiency in education (Karaköse, 2006).
Likewise, top authorities are expected to meet the expectations of managers.
There is a close relationship between job satisfaction and motivation. Individuals
with high motivation have also high job satisfaction. There may be an opposite
condition. Individuals who get what they expect from their job achieve satisfaction. In
this case, the motivation and performance of individuals can increase Şim<ek et al,
2001).
Job satisfaction, one of the psychological aspects of education and training, leads
teachers to develop positive attitudes towards their profession and increase in the
realization levels of school's objectives and their own objectives (Argon et al, 2014). The
job satisfaction sources of school administrators and teachers consist of factors such as
relations with students, relations with teachers, relations with top managers,
opportunity to apply their own ideas, holidays, economic assurance, wage payments,
working conditions, realization of personal interests, working hours, nature of the job,
promotion opportunity, supervision, organization and management, job security,
personality and being appreciated (Vural, 2004). The satisfaction or dissatisfaction
experienced by school administrators and teachers while working affect the structure
and functioning of the school in which they work. Accordingly, it is necessary to
establish a school environment in which the job satisfactions of school administrators
and teachers are ensured for educational organizations to achieve their objectives.
The main purpose of this research is to determine the job satisfaction levels of
school administrators and teachers. Based on this main purpose, an answer was sought
to the question of "Do the job satisfaction levels of school administrators and teachers
significantly differ by their task types, types of schools and seniority in general and in the subdimensions of the scale?".
2. Method
2.1 Research model
The descriptive method based on screening model for revealing the existing situation
was used in the study. Screening models are the research approaches that aim to

describe a situation which is in the past or existing as is. According to this approach, an
attempt to describe an event, person or object which is the subject of the research as it is
and within its own conditions is made (Karasar, 2014). An attempt to determine the job
satisfaction levels of administrators and teachers in educational organizations was
made in this research.
2.2 Population and sample
The school administrators and teachers working in Elazığ city center in the
-2015
academic year constitute the population of the research. The random and
disproportionate cluster sampling method was used while determining the sample of
the research. “ccordingly, the schools located in Elazığ city center were randomly
selected from the list, and 20 school administrators and 264 teachers working in these
schools selected were determined as sample. Cluster sampling study is used in case of
the presence of different groups showing similarities in themselves in terms of certain
properties that occurred naturally in the considered universe or that are artificially
created for different purposes Yıldırım and Şim<ek,
. The distributions of the
participants included in the research according to their demographic characteristics are
given in Table 1.

When personal variables are taken into account, 86.3% of participants had
undergraduate education level and 13.7% of them had postgraduate education level,
56.7% of them were working in the elementary school, 28.8% of them in the secondary
school and 15.1% of them in the high school. In addition, 21.1% of participants had a
seniority of 1-5 years, 13.4% of them had a seniority of 6-10 years, 17.6% of them had a
seniority of 11-15 years, 24.6% of them had a seniority of 16-20 years, and 23.2% of them
had a seniority of 21+ years.
2.3 Data Collection Tool
Job Satisfaction Scale developed by Spector (1985) to determine the job satisfaction
levels of school administrators and teachers was used in the research. The Job
Satisfaction Scale consisting of 36 items and nine dimensions is a Likert-type scale

were scored inversely and made ready for the analyses.
2.4 Data Analysis
The t-test for the determination of the significant difference between pair groups and
the one-way analysis of variance for the determination of the significant difference
between multiple groups were used in the research. In cases where significant
difference was observed, the Scheffe test from the post-hoc tests was applied to find the
source of the difference. The significance level was accepted as p<.05.
3. Findings and Comments
This section includes the analyses of job satisfaction levels of school administrators and
teachers who participated in the research according to the variables of task type, school
type and seniority, and the comments related to analyses.
As a result of the t-test performed regarding the scores received by school
administrators and teachers from the job satisfaction scale, it was seen that the scores
regarding the overall scores and working conditions along with the workmates subdimensions did not show normal distribution. Therefore, it was decided to perform
Mann Whitney U test for these dimensions. The values related to the analyses
performed are given in Table 2.

INVESTIGATION OF JOB SATISFACTION LEVELS OF SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS AND TEACHERS
When the scores received by school administrators and teachers from the job
satisfaction scale were examined in general, it was seen that the average of school
administrators was X=3.85, and the average of teachers was X=3.83. No significant
difference was observed between the job satisfaction scores of the two groups (p<.05).
When they were analyzed in terms of sub-dimensions, a statistically significant
difference was observed between the total scores in the sub-dimension of Working
Conditions (Xadministrator=3.03; Xteacher=3.55). The significant difference in this subdimension was observed to be in favor of teacher. Accordingly, it can be said that
teachers' working conditions are in better condition compared to administrators. No
significant differentiation was observed in other sub-dimensions.
When they were analyzed in terms of averages, administrators' opinions were
observed to be higher in the sub-dimensions of wage, promotion, management,
additional payment, reward, the job itself and communication, and teachers' opinions
were observed to be higher in the sub-dimensions of working conditions and
workmates. The values regarding the analysis of variance performed to determine the
job satisfaction levels of school administrators and teachers by the variable of school
type are shown in Table 3.

When they were analyzed in terms of sub-dimensions, a statistically significant
difference was observed between the total scores in the sub-dimension of Management
(Xprimary

school
Xsecondary school=4.82; Xhigh school=4.23). In both sub-dimensions, it was seen that the averages
regarding the opinions of administrators and teachers working in secondary schools
were higher but lower in high schools. No significant differentiation was observed in
other sub-dimensions.
When they were evaluated in terms of averages, it can be said that job
satisfactions were higher in high schools in terms of wage and additional payment, in
secondary

It was seen that the scores regarding the sub-dimension of Management by the
variable of school type did not show normal distribution. Therefore, the Kruskal-Wallish-Test was performed for these sub-dimensions. The values regarding the analyses
performed are shown in Table 4.

According to the KWH test result, no significant difference was encountered between
the groups in the sub-dimension of Management (KWH=15.905, p<.05). When mean
ranks were taken into account, it was seen that while the management perceptions of
administrators and teachers working in secondary schools were at the highest value, the
perceptions of administrators and teachers working in high schools were at the lowest
value. The values regarding the analysis of variance performed to determine the job
satisfaction levels of school administrators and teachers by the variable of seniority are
shown in Table 5.

When scores received by school administrators and teachers from the job satisfaction
scale according to the variable of seniority were analyzed in general, it was seen that the
average of administrators and teachers with 1-5 years seniority was X=3.76, the average
of those with 6-10 years was X=3.89, the average of those with 11-15 years was X=3.75,
the average of those with 16-50 years was X=3.86, and the average of those with 21 and
more years was X=3.91. Accordingly, it can be said that the job satisfaction levels of
administrators and teachers with 21 and more years seniority were higher compared to
other groups, and the job satisfaction levels of administrators and teachers with 11-15
years seniority were lower. In addition, no significant difference was observed between
the job satisfaction scores of the groups.
On the other hand, when sub-dimensions were analyzed, a statistically
significant difference was observed between the total scores in the sub-dimensions of
Workmates (X1-5years=4.32; X6-10 years=4.91; X11-15 years=4.73; X16-20 years=4.75; X21+years=4.68) and the

years seniority expressed more frequent opinions to the sub-dimension of the Job Itself.
Accordingly, it is possible to say that administrators and teachers with 6-10 years
seniority positively affected the job satisfaction levels of their workmates by their

opinions, and administrators and teachers with 21 and more years seniority increased
the job satisfaction levels of the work performed.
When they were evaluated in terms of averages, it can be said that the job
satisfactions were higher in administrators and teachers with 1-5 years seniority in
terms of Wage and Additional Payment, in administrators and teachers with 6-10 years
seniority in terms of Management, Working Conditions and Workmates, in
administrators and teachers with 11-15 years seniority in terms of Communication, in
administrators and teachers with 21 and more years seniority in terms of Promotion,
Reward and the Job Itself.
As a result of the analysis of variance performed regarding the scores received by
school administrators and teachers from the job satisfaction scale by the variable of
seniority, it was seen that the scores regarding the sub-dimension of the Job Itself did
not show normal distribution. Therefore, Kruskal-Wallis-h-Test was performed for this
dimension. The values related to the analyses performed are given in Table 6.

job itself, and the satisfaction levels of administrators and teachers with 11-15 years
seniority were at lower levels.
4. Conclusion and Discussion
The efforts made by school administrators and teachers for better education and higher
student success are the most important factors affecting the success of the school. The
fact that the efforts made by administrators and teachers gain continuity and are
responded will definitely affect their job satisfaction. In this research, when the scores
received by school administrators and teachers from the job satisfaction scale were
evaluated in general, it was observed that the job satisfaction levels of school
European Journal of Education Studies - Volume 3 │ Issue 3 │ 2017
305
Gön(l Şener, Mukadder Boydak Özan
INVESTIGATION OF JOB SATISFACTION LEVELS OF SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS AND TEACHERS
administrators and teachers were close to each other and at medium-level. Yılmaz and
“ltınkurt
and Sun (2002) concluded in his study that the job satisfaction levels of
primary school teachers were at medium-level. In addition, many researches carried out
emphasize that the job satisfaction levels of primary school teachers are not very high
“kın and Koçak,
“yan et al,
. On the other hand, it can be said that teachers'
working conditions are in better condition compared to administrators in the subdimension of Working Conditions. In addition to this, it can be concluded that school
administrators have higher job satisfaction levels regarding the wage, promotion,
management, additional payment, reward, the job itself and communication, and
teachers also have higher job satisfaction levels regarding the working conditions and
workmates.
When the scores received by school administrators and teachers by the variable
of school type were evaluated in general, it was concluded that job satisfactions of the
groups were at medium-level and close to each other, however the job satisfaction
levels of administrators and teachers working in secondary schools were higher
compared to administrators and teachers working in primary schools and high schools.
Regarding this variable, in the sub-dimension of Management and Workmates, it was
observed that the job satisfactions of administrators and teachers working in secondary
schools were higher, and the job satisfactions of administrators and teachers working in
high schools and primary schools were lower. Similarly, Kuma< and Deniz 2010),
concluded that the job satisfactions of teachers working in different types of high
schools were lower compared to teachers working in primary schools. Furthermore, it
can be said according to this variable that the job satisfactions of teachers and
administrators are higher in high schools in terms of wage and additional payment, in
secondary
schools
in
terms
of
promotion,
management,
workmates
and
communication, and in primary schools in terms of reward, working conditions, the job
itself and communication. Regarding the sub-dimension of Management, it was seen
that although the management-originated job satisfactions of administrators and
teachers working in secondary schools were at the maximum value, the job satisfactions
of administrators and teachers working in high schools were at the lowest value.
No significant difference was observed between the job satisfaction scores of the
groups by the variable of seniority. When the relevant literature was reviewed, it was
found in the researches carried out by (Oshagbemi, 1997; Tezcan, 2011) that there was
not a significant difference in teachers' job satisfaction levels by their seniority. These
findings support the research results. However, in researches carried out by “yık,
Karata< and G(le<,
, it was determined that teachers' seniority was a factor
that created a significant difference in their perceptions on job satisfaction levels.
Besides, it is possible to say that the job satisfaction levels of administrators and
European Journal of Education Studies - Volume 3 │ Issue 3 │ 2017
306
Gön(l Şener, Mukadder Boydak Özan
INVESTIGATION OF JOB SATISFACTION LEVELS OF SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS AND TEACHERS
teachers with 21 and more years seniority are higher compared to other groups, and the
job satisfaction levels of administrators and teachers with 11-15 years seniority are
lower. The seniority of teachers and administrators in the profession is one of the most
important factors affecting the job satisfaction. As the seniority of teachers and
administrators increases, teachers get used to problems related to their job and do not
regard them as a problem. For this reason, factors that may cause administrators and
teachers to have job dissatisfaction decrease, and therefore the job satisfaction level of
administrators and teachers increases as their seniority increases. On the other hand,
administrators and teachers with 6-10 years seniority in the sub-dimension of
Workmates and the administrators and teachers with 21 and more years seniority in the
sub-dimension of the Job Itself reported that their job satisfaction levels were higher.
Accordingly, it can be concluded that administrators and teachers with 6-10 years
seniority positively affected the job satisfaction levels of their workmates. Similar
results are also encountered in the study of Sönmezer (2007). It is possible to say that
administrators and teachers with 21 and more years seniority increased the job
satisfaction levels of the work performed. The result obtained concerning this subdimension matches up with the result about the fact that the job satisfactions of teachers
with 25 years and more seniority are higher, which was achieved by Şahin,
.
Furthermore, it can be said that the job satisfactions were higher in administrators and
teachers with 1-5 years seniority in terms of Wage and Additional Payment, in
administrators and teachers with 6-10 years seniority in terms of Management, Working
Conditions and Workmates, in administrators and teachers with 11-15 years seniority in
terms of Communication, in administrators and teachers with 21 and more years
seniority in terms of Promotion, Reward and the Job Itself. In the sub-dimension of the
Job Itself in which a significant difference was observed, it was seen that administrators
and teachers with 21 years and more seniority had more satisfaction due to the job itself
between the groups. The results show similarity with the study in which ”alcı (1985)
found a significant relationship between the seniority of school administrators and their
job satisfaction levels. The job satisfactions levels of administrators and teachers with
11-15 years seniority were found to be low.
When a general evaluation was made, it was concluded that the job satisfactions
of administrators and teachers were mostly at medium-level regarding management,
additional payment, reward, working conditions, workmates, the job itself and
communication, and their job satisfactions were at low level regarding wage and
promotion. In this regard, the ministry should carry out studies that could satisfy
administrators and teachers, especially with regard to wages, and the sluggish
promotion system in the education environment should be reconsidered.
