Abstract

The current study examines the importance of lecturer job satisfaction in universities in Indonesia. Job satisfaction has an important role in increasing job involvement. The results of previous studies have shown that there is a positive relationship between lecturer job satisfaction and employee performance in an organization. In its development, lecturer job satisfaction needs to be analyzed for the progress of higher education. This study is based on the theory Luthans (2011) with job satisfaction indicators, including namely the work itself, salary, promotion opportunities, supervision, and relationships with coworkers. The results of this study indicate that the job satisfaction of lecturers can play a role in optimizing the performance of lecturers in higher education. The limitation of this study is that it only reviews job satisfaction. Therefore, it is recommended for other researchers to conduct future studies by reviewing other factors that can be studied from the development of universities in Indonesia or across cultures.
