Abstract
Today, working life is assumed to be part of the human personality. An individual’s attitudes and behaviors towards working are considered important for the development of human personality in social life. It is expected an individual’s choices regarding their working life and career match their personality development. Thus, attitudes and values towards working life affect our performance in our work. On the other hand, the level of work satisfaction of employees is also considered as a factor directly affecting one’s happiness and efficiency at work. Accordingly, it is expected that there is a significant relationship between individuals’ sense of work; that is the attitudes and behaviors they develop towards work, and the level of work satisfaction they have. In this study, an attempt was made to determine whether there is a relationship between teachers’ sense of work and their level of work satisfaction and if so, the source of this relationship was researched. According to this, it was found that there is a relationship between teachers’ sense of work and their level of work satisfaction, and recommendations were made based on the findings.
