Meaningful work is the values formed by the person's expectations about their workplace. Job satisfaction is the positive feelings one has for one's job. This study aims to measure whether accounting academicians find their jobs meaningful and their satisfaction levels in their careers. The sample size is 164 people who are accounting academics in Turkey. The study measured the relationship between the meaningful job and job satisfaction, and the subdimension of the meaningful job was examined. Significant relationships were found between some sub-dimensions of meaningful work and job satisfaction.
