Abstract:
This study investigates the correlation between compensation satisfaction and teaching performance among teachers
at St. Peter's College of Toril, Inc. The study uses a quantitative research design and analysis methods such as mean
averaging, standard deviation, Pearson's correlation, and regression analysis to determine if there is a significant
relationship between teachers' satisfaction with their compensation and their teaching performance. The study reveals
that teachers are moderately satisfied with compensation and good teaching performance. While there is a significant
connection between compensation satisfaction and teaching performance, the strength of the relationship is not strong
enough to fully support it. Based on these findings, recommendations are provided to enhance compensation
satisfaction and teaching performance. These include implementing performance-based incentives, recognizing
teachers' efforts, conducting comprehensive salary and benefits reviews, establishing a performance-based
compensation system, providing professional development opportunities, fostering a positive work environment,
offering non-monetary incentives, ensuring transparency and fairness in compensation practices, regularly reviewing
and adjusting compensation packages, supporting work-life balance, seeking input from teachers, and regularly
assessing teaching performance. This research provides valuable insights for researchers and practitioners in
education.
