Abstract When teachers feel supported, valued, and treated fairly, they become more motivated and committed to their work. A positive work environment with strong leadership and good peer relationships enhances job satisfaction. This study aimed to determine the working conditions and job satisfaction of public elementary school teachers in Don Carlos, Division of Bukidnon, during School Year 2024–2025. Specifically, it sought to assess the level of teachers’ working conditions and job satisfaction and examine the significant relationship between the two. The study involved 309 teachers using a descriptive-correlational research design and total enumeration sampling. Data were gathered using a modified questionnaire and analyzed through descriptive statistics and Pearson correlation.
Findings revealed that while teachers experience positive interactions with learners, teacher-to-teacher relationships are lacking, with many feelings isolated due to limited teamwork. Teachers reported high satisfaction with their work itself but only slight satisfaction with the organization. A significant positive relationship was found between working conditions and job satisfaction. The study concludes that meaningful interactions with students enhance teacher satisfaction, but poor collaboration among teachers and weak leadership reduce it. It recommends fostering stronger peer relationships, improving teamwork, and enhancing school leadership and support systems to boost teacher morale and job satisfaction.
