School teachers play a crucial role in shaping human resources into valuable human capital. Their mental and physical well-being is essential, as it directly influences the effectiveness and quality of the teaching–learning process. This research aims to measure the relationship between Job Satisfaction and subjective well-being of the North Indian private school teachers. Data were collected using Job Descriptive Index (JDI) for Job Satisfaction (Smith, Kendall & Hulin, 1969) and the Subjective Wellbeing Inventory (Nagpal, Dr. R and Sell, Dr. H. 1992) from 127 private school teachers of North India. Overall, the private school teachers of North India had a no significant correlation between the Job Satisfaction and the Subjective Well-being. Also, there were positive correlation between work itself and promotion (the sub-dimensions of job satisfaction) and few sub-dimensions of the Subjective Well-being while Supervision, Pay and Co-worker (the sub-dimensions of job satisfaction) and few sub-dimensions of the Subjective Well-being. Job satisfaction had mixed correlations with different factors of subjective well-being such as positive correlation with general well-being positive affect, expectation-achievement congruence, transcendence and negative correlation with primary group concern.
