Abstract

Introduction: Teachers face new challenges every day which can result in dissatisfaction or satisfaction at work, coupled with the fact that it is a sector that lacks interventions or prevention strategies.
Objective: To analyze the level of job satisfaction in undergraduate and graduate teachers of a public school in Mexico City.
Methods: A quantitative approach was used with a cross-sectional and correlational study design. 100 teachers from a public school in Mexico City were studied (being a non-significant sample, by fee). The Labor Satisfaction Questionnaire S20 / 23 was applied to know the satisfaction status in five dimensions (relationship with superiors, environment, benefits received, growth opportunities and autonomy) and a sociodemographic and labor Questionnaire designed for this study. The sample was selected casually on different days and hours, with voluntary consent and participation, with an approximate response time of 20 minutes.
Results: In general, 44.0% (F = 44) teachers are somewhat satisfied, according to each dimension 30.0% (F = 30) of the relationship with superiors and 55.0% (F = 55) of the growth opportunities are fully satisfied, while 37.0% (F = 37) of the environment, 31.0% (F = 31) of the benefits received and 41.0% (F = 41) of autonomy are totally satisfied.
Conclusion: The factors of hygiene (salary, goals and environment) and motivational (achievements and recognition) favors the perception of your satisfaction.
