With more organizations looking for employees who take the initiative and respond creatively to the challenges of the job, empowermentbecomes important at both individual and organizational levels. Empowered employees are generally more satisfied with their work, committedand effective at work. According to Kanter's structural empowerment, this study examines the role of access to opportunity, resources, supportand information, and two types of power, formal and informal, as antecedents of job satisfaction. A cross sectional study using questionnaireswas conducted. The sample consisted of 226 Spanish university teachers. Hierarchical multiple regression analyses have revealed thatintrinsic job satisfaction was significantly predicted by formal power and access to opportunity, and job satisfaction with supervisor waspredicted by informal power, and access to resources, information, and support. Results support Kanter's theory of structural empowerment,and suggest strong relationships between job satisfaction and structural empowerment.

On a practical level, Kanter's structural empowermenttheory provides a framework for understanding empowering workplaces and empowered employees
