The aim of this study is to examine whether the six chosen factors from the Herzberg Two Theory Factor would give a great satisfaction in work or otherwise to the graduate teachers. It also aimed to look at the correlation between the intrinsic and extrinsic factors with regard to work satisfaction and whether these factors have any significant on work satisfaction. This study involved 175 graduate teachers from nine schools in Bagan Serai, Perak. A set of questionaires with 47 items was used as the instrument in this study. The questionaires were modified from the questionaires of 'Faculty Opinion Survey' by Seegmiller (1977) and 'Minnesota Satisfaction Questionaires' by Weiss, Dawis England and Lofquist (1967). Seven null hypotheses were developed for this study. The data acquired were then analyzed using descriptive and the inferential statistical methods which involve Pearson correlation and multiple regression. It was found that factors such as responsibility, the principles and management of an organization including the opportunity to develop one self are the three important factors which gave great satisfaction in work. However, factors such as salary is the least important in work satisfaction. Results of the multiple regression analysis show that factors such as the chances to be promoted, the principles and management of an organization and the opportunity to develop one self, as a whole, have significant effect to the satisfaction in work among graduate teachers. Some suggestions have been provided to enhance the satisfaction in work among graduate teachers.
