Abstract

Workplace spirituality is one subject that has appealed to many. In the midst of challenges, people resort to spirituality. Many realize the true meaning of life through spirituality. It has meaningful work, sense of community and alignment of values as its dimensions and studies done on the subject show its positive relationship with other variables such as job satisfaction, job engagement , organizational commitment, job control, ethical climate, self-efficacy, job performance, organizational performance and so on. This study aims to validate the effect of workplace spirituality on job satisfaction among higher education professors of business subjects. A survey was deployed to 38 business professors from colleges and universities and data was analyzed by Jamovi 1.6.23 version. Data was tested for normality, reliability, multicollinearity and heteroscedasticity The result showed that workplace spirituality has a significant effect on the job satisfaction among business professors regardless of age, gender, religion, civil status or employment status. Further studies can be done by covering other professions, increasing the population, adding more variables or inserting mediating or moderating variables, or a qualitative research can be done on the subject extensively to prove that it can help address human resource challenges and will make the workplace conducive to productivity and profitability
