ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to analyse the factors that affect job satisfaction among academic professionals in Nigerian tertiary institutions. The study looked at environmental factors, job content factors, and personal factors affecting job satisfaction. The study adopted descriptive research design. The researcher used questionnaires, interviews and documentary review as instruments for data collection. The obtained data were analyzed by descriptive analysis and the results are presented both qualitatively and quantitatively. The principle findings show that lecturers were satisfied with school environmental factors like relationship with students. Conversely the lecturers indicated they were dissatisfied with the job content factors like salary, benefit, rewards, promotion and training. The study of lecturers’ job satisfaction suggests there is an urgent need for government to look into the university system and make adequate provisions that will lead to improvements in the provision of services. The study recommends; the government should find the average of pay to academic professionals in universities, therefore come with the amount of salary that can be paying according to their level of education. Also appraisal system (OPRAS) should be implemented effectively to enable promotion, benefits and rewards to professionals
