Abstract. The paper presents data from a study of Bulgarian teachers' value orientations towards their work based on a sample of 401 professionals who come from different locations and school types. The data obtained are contrasted and comperatively analysed with data collected using the same methodology among a group of 2651 respondents from various professional fields in a national context. This is the first time that a study of this nature has been conducted in Bulgaria. The value profile of the teachers generally coincides with that of the general population. Additionally, there are some particularities that inspire fresh study inquiries. The results of the research allow to draw conclusions about the value dimensions of the teacher's work. The data verifies certain recent patterns of a growing interest in teaching jobs due to competitive advantages of the teaching profession.
