dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this paper is to examine the influence of job satisfaction on the perceived organizational support-employee engagement relationship among secondary school teachers in Uganda. The study took a cross-sectional descriptive and analytical design. Out of a population of 654, the study targeted a sample size of 250 respondents. Using random sampling procedures, data were obtained in two rounds, the 2nd round carried out after 6 months from the 1st. In the 1st round, data were obtained from 212 usable questionnaires and from 231 usable questionnaires in the 2nd round. Using SPSS and AMOS all the four hypotheses were tested and analyzed. The results are presented in terms of Regression Analysis models, CFA and SEM. Results indicate that perceived organizational support and job satisfaction were significant predictors of employee engagement. Furthermore, perceived organizational support significantly associated with teacher engagement at work. Similarly, job satisfaction emerged as a mediator of the perceived organizational support - employee engagement relationship. The study is relevant in that managers of schools will ensure they set up and implement human resources policies and practices that are relevant for increasing job satisfaction and support at work.en_US
