Organizations design motivation systems to encourage employees to perform in the most effective way but also to attract potential candidates. The key to create the efficient motivation system is an answer to the question what really motivate employees. The main objective of this study is to assess the teachers work motivation and job satisfaction to identify the variables which are the most predictor of teachers’ work motivation and satisfaction in secondary schools of Assosa Zone.

A total of 166 individuals participated in the study. Among them, 149 teachers were included as samples through random sampling technique. Additionally, 9 secondary school principals, 4 cluster supervisors and 4 Woreda education office coordinators were included through available sampling technique. Questionnaire and interview were the main instruments of data collection. The analysis of the quantitative data was carried out by using mean and standard deviations. The findings revealed that the school practices on the independent variables that influence teachers’ work motivation and job satisfaction are insufficient as most of the practices on independent variables scored below two, when it serves as the average of the likert scales. As a result teachers are not encouraged to disseminate their knowledge to students through effective teaching-learning method, to achieve schools objective as well as to stay in the profession. Due to this teachers are not successful to improve the students’ academic achievement as well as school goals.
