Organisational support and job satisfaction: the mediating role of psychological capital

Organisations are an indispensable element of social life. Employees are an organisation's most valuable resource since they distinguish it from others and contribute value to it. In addition to the quality of the employees, the assistance provided by the organisation to its employees is critical to the operation of the organisational processes and the quality of the outputs. The job satisfaction of teachers is critical in this regard, as teachers not only ensure the education of citizens but also shape the future of societies and directly impact their growth. Keeping in view, the given research model investigates psychological capital as a mediator of the impact of organisational support on job satisfaction. Findings of the study indicate that teachers' job satisfaction was positively influenced by perceived organisational support, with psychological capital serving as a mediating effect. The fact that this research was conducted in the education sector makes it original contribution.
