ABSTRACT: This
study examines the impact of wellness programs on employee job satisfaction in
Colleges and Universities. Utilizing a sample of full time or part time college
and university faculty members of for-profit
and brick and mortar universities in the United States, the results of this
correlational study did not predict job satisfaction among employees who
participated in wellness programs. In addition, it was found that interaction analyses indicated a relationship between gender and job satisfaction. Females
were more likely than males to have higher levels of job satisfaction, as well
as years of experience and job satisfaction. Faculty who had employed between
11 and 15 years were more likely to have higher levels of job satisfaction.
