Abstract
This paper addresses the need fulfillment of moonlighting university teachers in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. We selected nine public sector universities randomly following by the calculation of respondents for each category of teachers through the proportion allocation method. The sample consisted of 656 faculty members. The study used Porter Need Satisfaction questionnaire and compared moonlighter and non-moonlighter teachers needs fulfillment. The results reveal that there is no difference between the social needs, actualization needs and esteem needs of the moonlighters and non-moonlighter teachers. In the case of selffulfillment and security needs, there was found a difference for both the categories. The results reveal an insignificant difference between teachers practicing moonlighting and those not moonlighting in terms of need fulfillment and moonlighters are more deficient in security, esteem and actualization needs. The study suggested the formalization and encouragement of moonlighting as well as improvement of work conditions (pecuniary and non-pecuniary).
