The role of a teacher in the world of education greatly affects how the quality of students with the expected changes cannot be separated from the responsibility of a teacher in educating, guiding, motivating and being a facilitator for these students. However, low work involvement by teachers is not able to achieve organizational or school success in producing quality successors. The intended work engagement is a series of results from the teacher's self-efficacy and resilience towards himself and work tasks. This study aims to empirically examine the effect of self-efficacy and resilience on teacher work engagement with personality traits as mediators, then explain how much influence between variables built from the model.
