The total success of education depends on the quality workforce equipped with high-quality standard, competence, and excellence.

This study aimed to determine the job satisfaction and quality of work-life of public elementary teachers in Quezon Province, Philippines, with the end view of proposing reinforcement mechanisms. This covered the demographic profile of respondents in relation to age, gender, civil status, educational attainment, and length of service; assessment on their job satisfaction in terms of teaching assignment, designation, promotion, training, and fringe benefits and quality of work-life with regard to work environment, interpersonal skills, professional relationship, and time management. Likewise, this looked into the significant difference in the assessment of respondents on job satisfaction and quality of work life. Descriptive method of research was used with questionnaire as its main tool in gathering data complemented with unstructured interview. The statistical tools used in the analysis of data were percentage, weighted mean, and t-test. Results revealed that majority of teachers are 29 years old and below, female, married, and have bachelor’s degree, with five years and below in service. Also, the teachers assessed job satisfaction as moderately evident in terms of teaching assignment, designation, promotion, training, and fringe benefits and assessed quality of work-life as moderately evident in terms of work environment, interpersonal skills, professional relationship, and time management. Moreover, there is significant difference in the assessment of the respondents’ job satisfaction relative to mentioned variables when grouped according to educational attainment.
