Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2025, Vol 31, Issue 10

Abstract

This study explored the relationship between financial literacy and work engagement among public secondary school teachers in Lanao del Norte, Philippines, offering insights relevant to teacher development and educational policies. Using a descriptive-correlational design, the research assessed teachers’ financial knowledge, behavior, and attitudes alongside their levels of vigor, absorption, and dedication at work. Findings revealed high financial knowledge and behavior but only moderate financial attitudes, highlighting areas for improvement. A strong positive correlation emerged between financial literacy and work engagement, suggesting that financially literate teachers are more motivated and committed to their profession. These results underscore the need for financial literacy programs as part of teacher development initiatives, equipping educators with skills to manage financial challenges, reduce stress, and enhance job satisfaction. Strengthening financial well-being among teachers may contribute to greater engagement, improved teaching effectiveness, and overall educational quality. Future research could further examine the impact of financial education programs and explore contextual factors influencing financial literacy’s role in teacher performance.
