الأمن الوظيفي لمعلمي المدارس الخاصة في سلطنة عمان : دراسة ميدانية

Abstract EN

This study aims to explore the availability of job security for private school teachers in the Sultanate of Oman and the impact of some demographic variables (gender and nationality), as well as the challenges of fulfilling job security for teachers in private schools.

In this regard, a questionnaire was built.

It includes four aspects: security related to continuity in the job, security related to changes in the job, security related to employee care, and security related to economic needs.

The study sample comprised 324 teachers from private schools in the Sultanate of Oman.

The results showed that the availability of job security is ranged from medium to high, ascending as follows: security related to employee care: 3.76, security related to continuity in the job: 3.75, security related to changes in the job: 3.71 and security related to economic needs: 2.96.

The study also showed significant statistically differences in two dimensions of job security in terms of gender favoring female teachers and in terms of nationality favoring Omanis.

Recommendations include the necessity to secure the rights of private school teachers and to establish a permanent and fair salary scale for teachers in private schools.
