Abstract : The aim of this study was to determine the impact ofjob satisfaction and organisational commitment on voluntary
absenteeism of teachers in secondary schools. The population of this study consisted of all educators in the 176 secondary
schools in Mauritius. For the study purpose, a judgmental sample technique was used to identify one educator from each
school. To measure the variables, the research instrument was the questionnaire.Data received were tabulated, analyzed and
interpreted. Exploratory factor analysis was used to identify dimensions of job satisfaction and organizational commitment
while at the same time testing for convergent validity of the constructs. A descriptive analysis allowed for the assessment of
current level of job satisfaction and organisational commitment. To test for the effect of job satisfaction dimensions and
organisational commitment dimensions, multiple regression analysis was performed. In light of the results, it was found that
absenteeism isindeed influenced by some job satisfaction and organizational commitment dimensions. Recommendations are
finally made based on the findings which aim at helping school administration to reduce the rate of voluntary absenteeism.
