description The frequency and strength of the achievement motive for different social groups is different, juxtaposed with professional attitudes, turns out to be an interesting research topic among teachers. The aim of the study was to determine the relationship between attitudes towards teachers’ work and their achievement motivation. The study was conducted in February 2016 among 118 teachers working at Primary School No. 40 Leon Kruczkowski in Lublin and the School Complex Antoni Kwiatkowski in Bychawa. The survey used the Performance motivation questionnaire and the Professional attitude index (KWPZ) questionnaire. It was found that there is a relationship between attitudes towards the work of the surveyed teachers and their motivation for professional achievement. The higher the level of achievement motivation, the more often the surveyed teachers exhibit positive attitudes towards work. The motivation of teacher achievements seems to be important. The undertaken research may be an incentive for subsequent researchers to broaden the subject of motivation and its determinants. The obtained research results can be used to better understand the school environment, understand the rules and mechanisms that shape attitudes towards work.
