Quality of work life

One should always strive to achieve a good quality of work life. Is yours good?

Home

what does it involve?

Picture
Quality of work is basically what employees go through at their jobs, how they are treated by their co-workers and managers at their job, and the conditions of their job. One factor that heavily impacts quality of work life is mostly management. If the management team of a company works to ensure a safe working environment full of care and love, the employee will feel like they are at home whenever they go to work and that their co-workers and managers are like family. This is because the employee will be treated well by their managers and the conditions of their job will be appropriate enough for them to feel more than comfortable with working there.

However, if the management team of a company treats its employees poorly by not doing anything to change a dangerous working environment, misunderstanding them on a daily basis and talking with them rudely, and keeping a dull atmosphere within the building, the employee is obviously going to have a poor quality of work. Is your quality of work life just as poor as the gentleman to the left? If it is, you may want to consult your manager on the topic or reconsider your job. A poor quality of work life can have a really negative impact on someone's health, believe it or not, because work is where people spend half of their day. If they are not content for half the day, how healthy and happy could they possibly be in their personal life?
