Abstract
This study investigates the impact of work-related stressors on teachers' performance in the New Bataan District, Davao de Oro. It highlights the significant challenges faced by educators, including workload, administrative pressures, and interpersonal conflicts. Through a quantitative-descriptive correlational research design, data were collected from 110 teachers across four schools using a validated questionnaire. The findings reveal that while teachers experience various stressors, they generally maintain a high level of performance as measured by the Performance Management and Evaluation System (PMES). Notably, the correlation between work stressors and teaching performance was found to be negligible and statistically insignificant. The study underscores the necessity for improved communication, support systems, and clarity in job roles to enhance teachers' work environments. Recognizing and addressing these challenges is crucial for promoting educators' well-being and effectiveness, ultimately benefiting student outcomes. Recommendations for school leaders include fostering collaboration, defining clear roles, and prioritizing professional development to create a supportive atmosphere for teachers.
