Abstract

Job satisfaction is an important factor in improving the quality of education because it is related to teachers’ motivation, commitment, and performance in carrying out their professional duties. Productive teachers in Vocational High Schools (SMK) have complex job characteristics, making job satisfaction potentially related to Work-Life Balance and job crafting. This study aims to analyze the contribution of Work-Life Balance and job crafting to the job satisfaction of productive teachers in public vocational high schools in Surabaya. This study employed a quantitative approach with a causal research design. The population consisted of 109 productive teachers from SMK Negeri 3 Surabaya and SMK Negeri 6 Surabaya, selected using total sampling. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) with SmartPL. The results showed that Work-Life Balance and job crafting contribute to the job satisfaction of productive teachers in public vocational high schools in Surabaya. Work-Life Balance was the most dominant variable in contributing to job satisfaction. An R² value of 0.870 indicates that the two variables explain 87% of the variation in job satisfaction, while the remaining 13% is explained by other factors outside the research model. These findings can serve as consideration for schools in improving teacher job satisfaction through strengthening Work-Life Balance and job crafting.
