Abstract: This study aimed to determine the best-fit model of core job characteristic as influenced by positive personality traits, organizational commitment, and work environment of public school teachers in Davao Region, Philippines. Descriptive correlational, quantitative non-experimental research design and Structural Equation Model were used in this research. Standardized questionnaire was used to conduct the study among 400 respondents in the public schools of the region. The said respondents were identified using stratified random sampling. The statistical tools used for data analysis were mean, pearson product-moment correlation, multiple regression analysis and structural equation modeling. The results showed a very high level of positive personality traits. While organizational commitment, work environment and core job characteristic received a high mean value. All latent exogenous variables have significant relationship with the endogenous variable core job characteristic. In addition, all exogenous variables significantly influence the core job characteristic. The core job characteristic of teachers is influenced by variables, positive personality traits, organizational commitment and work environment. Furthermore, the best-fit model is 5 which passed the criteria of indices since it apparently displayed all of its three indicators that remained viable to core job characteristic namely: skill’s variety, task identity, task significance, autonomy, and feedback. However, the model displayed only two out of its five indicators that remained viable on core job characteristic, namely, skill’s variety and task identity.
