Abstract/Summary

This study deals with the relationships between the administrative service-related factors and incentive structure. It covered three schools namely, St. Scholastica's College, Manila, Assumption College, San Lorenzo and Siena College, Quezon City. It aimed at ascertaining: 1) the factors considered important in the job as administrators, 2) the level of job satisfaction, 3) type of incentive structure provided to administrators specifically honorarium scheme, enrichment programs and fringe benefits and 4) the nature of relationship between incentive structure and administrative service-related factors. The study used the descriptive-correlational design. Seventy-five administrators were included in the study. Three instruments were used: 1) self-administered questionnaire 2) the job satisfaction questionnaire 3) and the standardized instrument for Factors Considered Important in the Job. Factors considered important in the job are technical supervision, achievement, responsibility, working conditions and work itself. The least important is recognition. With regard to the level of job satisfaction, the administrators were satisfied with motivation factors namely: responsibility, work itself, achievement, and recognition. In terms of incentive structure, salary for administrators is commonly attached to the faculty rank. The other compensation being provided are mostly honorarium and load equivalence. Enrichment programs availed are seminar-workshop, in-service training, retreat and symposium. The least availed are research/publication, educational benefits for children and scholarly/study grant.

Special arrangements provided for and enjoyed by the administrator respondents are decision-making power, greater leeway in the management and flexible working hours. Findings regarding the level of job satisfaction of administrators have no significant relationship with wage structure and job enrichment programs. It is, however, significantly related to fringe benefits.
