Abstract: The present study was aimed at exploring differences in gender and organizations with respect to job satisfaction. A sample of 80 participants was chosen, teaching secondary level students in government and private schools in Delhi-NCR. The age range of the participants was between 25- 35 year olds, with a teaching experience of 3-5 years. The Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire short form (MSQ, Weiss et al. , 1967) was used to assess job satisfaction. Gender and organizational differences were computed using t test.
