Factors which influence the job satisfaction of female educators in secondary schools / Rixt Kamstra

This study has investigated the problems experienced by female educators in
relation with their job satisfaction by focussing on:
The nature of job satisfaction;
The problems and factors which cause job satisfaction/job dissatisfaction
among female educators;
To achieve these goals a literature study and an empirical study has been
conducted. The literature study was undertaken by consulting primary and
secondary sources. After the nature of job satisfaction and the problems causing
satisfaction or dissatisfaction were established and discussed, a questionnaire
was drafted. From a review of the literature, it appeared that the problems
experienced by the female educators were intrinsic problems, within the
classroom, outside the classroom, and within the community.
A study population was used in which female educators who worked in secondary
schools in the Potchefstroom District were involved. The empirical investigation
indicated that the major problems experienced by the female educators were
mostly outside the classroom.
A minor problem for female educators appears to be that the learners are not
under the obligation to tell if they are HIV/Aids infected. Also safety does not seem
to be of influence on the job satisfaction of female educators in secondary schools / Thesis (M.Ed.)--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2005.
