The study aimed to evaluate and distinguish job satisfaction levels between government and private teachers in Chandigarh. A total of 200 (n-200) teachers from government and private schools in Chandigarh were selected through random sampling techniques. These participants were then categorized into two groups: newly recruited teachers with less than 5 years of experience (n-100), and teachers with 5 or more years of experience (n-100). The Teacher's Job Satisfaction Questionnaire, developed by Dr. Mrs. Nasrin and Dr. Afshan Annes in 2017, was utilized for data collection. Mean, SD, and ‘t’-value were computed to determine the significance of differences between the two groups, with a significance level set at 0.05. Experienced government and private teachers exhibited significant difference, as indicated by the findings. Conversely, new public and private teachers with less than 5 years of experience displayed insignificant difference.
