Most of them live a long distance from schools where they teach hence affecting them to fulfill their day to day responsibilities which leads to lowering their morale of work. This results into teacher absenteeism and lateness which leads to lower students’ academic performance. The study recommends among others for the government to address teachers’ problem through providing them adequate teaching facilities, in-service training, promotion, accommodation.","abstract_html":"This study assessed of the influence of working conditions on teachers’ job satisfaction, the case of Kisarawe district public secondary schools teachers, Tanzania.
