Abstract

The kurdestani teachers’ perception of their own welfare and factors impacting it, based on a grounded theory approach. The current study aimed at investigating kurdestani teacher-s' perception of their own welfare, identifying factors affecting it and suggesting mechanisms for its improvement. This research is qualitative and is based on grounded theory. Participants composed of 12 sanandajan teachers who were systematically selected using theoretical sampling. The deep interview was used to collect data. The result, showed that from the participants’ viewpoint welfare is a comprehensive concept and has material and mental dimensions. This concept is influenced by: political (state policy), social (values, attitude), economic (quantitative and cost attitude), organizational (management and process), individual (teachers' role), and professional factors (professional identity). Teachers welfare can be improved through comprehensive social efforts, teachers own determination and efforts, and the recognition and support accorded professional teachers’ association.
