ABSTRACT This study aimed to investigate job satisfaction and its effects on performance at work among minimum-wage earners in the municipality of Inopacan. The study was conducted in the selected barangays of Inopacan, which are Tinago, Poblacion, Tao-taon, Maljo, and Jubasan. A total of 100 workers, 20 from each selected barangay, were surveyed, and their responses were analyzed using the statistical tools Frequency and Percentage, and Pearson Correlation Coefficient. This research explored the relationship between monthly income and performance at work, including satisfaction at the workplace, satisfaction with the overall experience, wage satisfaction, sentiments at work, work overtime, feedback on performance, and the rating to the employer. The research was supported by a quantitative research approach, using semi-structured interviews and questionnaires to collect data on a sample of Inopacan workers. The findings indicated that there was a significant relationship between workers' monthly income and their satisfaction in the workplace. However, there was no significant relationship between workers' monthly income and their satisfaction with their overall work experience, wage satisfaction, sentiments at work, work overtime, feedback on performance, or rating of the employer. These results suggested that minimum wages could have a negative impact on workers' satisfaction at the workplace, highlighting the importance of fair compensation for employees' productivity.
