This study aims to analyze job satisfaction and the factors affecting the overall success of Social Service Employees of Penitentiary Institutions in Albania. Among 25 satisfaction items the Factorial Analyze identified five factors as latent variables: satisfaction from pay and benefits, working environment, management, peers and superior. These factors have a positive relationship with Social Service Workers success. Together they explain about 60% of the total variance of success in the work of social service employees. The main important factors of this analysis were pay and benefits, followed by peers and management. In contrast, working environment and relation with superiors have less impact on their success at work. DOI: 10.5901/ajis.2016.v5n1p231
