dc.descriptionThe study was conducted to investigate the level of job satisfaction among senior staff of the University of Education, Winneba, and find out ways to promote their job satisfaction in the university. The research design used for the study was descriptive survey. A total sample of 155 senior staff was selected for the study. Simple random technique, using the lottery method was used to select the respondents from each campus. The instrument used for gathering data was the questionnaire. The Cronbach’s Alpha coefficient for reliability test was .750. The study was guided by five research questions. The descriptive statistics such as percentages, mean, standard deviation, independent sample t-test and ANOVA were used where applicable. The study revealed that senior staff of the university were generally satisfied with their job. It also indicated that senior staff agreed on their view that job satisfaction leads to increase in productivity. However, there was no significant difference between respondents’ gender and their level of job satisfaction in the university even though there was a significant difference between respondents’ age, rank and work experience and their level of satisfaction. The recommendations include the need to involve senior staff of the university in the decision making process, organization of regular workshops and seminars for them to become abreast with current issues pertaining to their work. Finally, fringe benefits and other allowances should be attractive enough to increase job satisfaction especially among the senior staff.
