This research sought to establish the relationship between job satisfaction and organizational commitment in teachers of regular basic education in the Peruvian Amazon. The research focus was quantitative, non-experimental design and correlational type. The sample consisted of 185 teachers to whom the Labor Satisfaction Scale and the Organizational Commitment Questionnaire were applied, instruments with the required validity and reliability. The findings indicate that teachers' level of job satisfaction and organizational commitment is regular and the existence of a direct and significant relationship between job satisfaction and organizational commitment was determined (rs= 0.539; p= 0.000 <0.05). It is concluded that the more satisfied teachers are in their work centers, the greater their level of commitment to the institution.
