Abstract: This study investigated the interplay between innovative work behavior and job satisfaction among public elementary school teachers. A descriptive-correlational research design was employed. The sample comprised of teachers from diverse backgrounds within the public elementary schools using universal as sampling technique.

Weighted Mean was used to assess the levels of innovative work behavior and job satisfaction while Pearson correlation coefficient was employed to determine the relationship between these variables. Findings showed that the level of work behavior was high, interpreted as evident and the level of job satisfaction was also high indicating that teachers were satisfied in their job. Results revealed a strong positive correlation between innovative work behavior and job satisfaction among public elementary school teachers, suggesting that teachers who exhibited higher levels of innovative work behavior reported increased job satisfaction.
