The Role of Collegiality in the Relationship between Workload and Job Satisfaction among High School Teachers in Kiambu County, Kenya
Résumé
The workload is essential in determining job satisfaction among professionals, including teachers. However, only a few researchers have focused on the issue of workload and job satisfaction with colleagues within the context of the teaching profession. Understanding the role of collegiality in the relationship between workload and job satisfaction in the teaching context is of the essence. This study investigated the role of collegiality in determining the relationship between workload and job satisfaction among teachers in Kiambu County, Kenya. The results revealed a strong relationship between workload and job satisfaction with colleagues across all the workload categories except the teachers in the workload category of (teaching, management of students’ issues and administrative duties. The majority of the respondents across all the workloads who related well with their colleagues were satisfied with their work. The results indicate that collegiality buffers individuals from less satisfaction which may result from engaging in multiple workloads. The study recommends promoting and encouraging support and solidarity among colleagues to enhance job satisfaction.
