Demographic Determinants And Job Selection: A Statistical Analysis Of Private School Teachers In Tiruchirappalli

Abstract

Employee retention and workplace satisfaction are crucial factors in the sustainability of private educational institutions. This study examines the relationship between demographic variations and employee retention in private schools in Tiruchirappalli through statistical analysis. The research focuses on key demographic attributes, including gender, age, marital status, teaching experience, educational qualifications, monthly salary, and number of dependents, and their association with two critical aspects: reasons for choosing the job and challenges faced in the workplace.
A cross-tabulation analysis is employed to explore the distribution of these demographic factors and their influence on employees' motivations and job-related difficulties. The study utilizes Chi-Square tests to assess the statistical significance of the relationships between demographic variables and the identified workplace factors. The findings provide insights into how personal and professional attributes impact job selection and retention, offering valuable implications for school administrators and policymakers in enhancing employee satisfaction and reducing turnover.
The results highlight key patterns in employee decision-making and workplace experiences, emphasizing the need for targeted strategies to improve job satisfaction and organizational bonding. By addressing these factors, private schools can foster a more engaged and committed workforce, ultimately enhancing the quality of education and institutional stability.
