Abstract: This study aims to examine the relationship between work stress, coping strategies, job satisfaction, and burnout among Guidance and Counselling Teachers.A total of 583 respondents, who are Guidance and Counselling Teachers in secondary schools, participated in this study.The study employed a survey research design, with data collected through questionnaires.The questionnaires used in this study include the Occupational Stress Inventory Revised Edition (OSI-R), the Brief COPE Inventory, the Job Satisfaction Survey (JSS), and the School Counsellor Burnout Inventory (SCBI).The findings of the study show that there is only a significant relationship between problem-focused coping strategies and job satisfaction.The implication of this study indicates that problem-focused coping strategies can help improve job satisfaction.Therefore, Guidance and Counselling teachers need to develop personal resilience to enhance their self-competence in carrying out their duties.
