Abstract

A cross sectional descriptive correlational research design was utilized to determine which among job satisfaction facets, job stress, and trust in management facets most contributes to employee`s job satisfaction. Through stratified sampling, 200 teachers from Pampanga were recruited and were asked to answer the Stress in General (SIG), Trust in Management, Intention to Quit, and Job Descriptive Index (JDI). Pearson product-moment correlation and multiple regression were used for data analysis. As highlighted in the study, job satisfaction and job in stress did significantly predict intention to quit. This means that as teachers are job satisfied and have less stress, they are less likely to plan to intend to quit.
