Job satisfaction has gathered a lot of attention and focus throughout the world from scholars as well as researchers. This study aims to investigate and analyze the relationships among perceived social support, rewards, and job satisfaction. Additionally, the moderating effect of school climate will be investigated between the relationships of perceived social support and rewards with job satisfaction, respectively. Data were collected from 200 teachers working in government schools of Bahawalpur District using self-administered questionnaires. This research is a quantitative and cross-sectional study and it has adopted a convenience sampling technique. Statistical Package for Social Sciences and Partial Least Squares-Structured Equation Modelling are the tools that have been used for data analysis to test the hypotheses. The results and findings of this study, indicate that a positive and significant relationship exists between perceived social support and job satisfaction. Also, the relationship between rewards and job satisfaction is positive and significant. However, no moderation of school climate is observed in both relationships of perceived social support and rewards with job satisfaction. This study provides implications i.e. theoretical and practical with the addition of limitations of the study. Lastly, future research directions are given as well.
