SCOPE AND RELEVANCE OF THESTUDY


Labour plays a significant role in the industrial production of the country. Therefore
it is highly necessary to seek cooperation of the employees to increase production and
to earn higher profit. The cooperation f employees is possible only when they are fully
satisfied with their employers, the working conditions and the quality of work life
they are provided.

Earlier the managers believed that the employees can be motivated by paying
satisfactory wages. Improvement in the quality of work life and a human treatment
was neglected. Better working conditions such as suitable temeperaturetemperature ,
adequate lighting and ventilations and a pleasant work atmosphere, improves the
quality of work life and enhances the productive efficiency of the employees.

Quality of work life in its widest sense comprises all matters affecting health, safety,
comfort and general welfare of the employees and includes provisions for education,
medical aid recreation, thrift schemes, convalescent houses daynurseriesday nurseries
and crèches, holidays with pay social insurance, sickness allowances, maternity
benefits, PF , gratuity etc.

Quality of work life may differ from country ,country, region to region, industry to
industry whether private or public. The employee’s morale and motivation are highly
dependent on QWL and is important for bringing congenial industrial relations to
make organization achieve its objective. Effective management of every organization
depends ultimately how well its human resources are managed. The study endorses
the fact that there is further scope for improvement in the HR practices of the
management to motivate the employees and make them high performers.

Introduction
There has been much concern today about the decent wages, convenient working
hours and conclusive working conditions. The term Quality of work life has appeared
in research journals and press in USA only in 1970’s. There is no generally acceptable
definition about this term. However some attempts were made to discover quality of
work life. Quality of work life means different things to different people. For e.g. to
a worker it just means fair days pays and a peaceful environment. Good working
condition and a supervisor who treats him with dignity to a new entrant, it means
opportunity for advancement, creative jobs and a successful career.
Quality of work life is a perspective attempt to design work environment as to
maximum concern of human welfare. It is a goal as well as a process. The goal is the
creation of more involving, satisfying and effective jobs and work environment for
people at all levels of organisationorganization. As a process, quality of work life
involves efforts to realise these goals through active participation. Quality of work
life is co-operative rather than authoritarian, evolutionary and open rather than static
and rigid, informal rather than rule bound, impersonal rather than mechanistic, mutual
respect and trust rather than hatred against each other.
It focuses on the problem of creating a human working environment where
employees work co-operatively and achieve results collectively. Quality of work life
is as it is understood includes 4 essential elements:
a) The program seek to promote dignity and growth
b) Employees work collaboratively
c) They determine work changes anticipatively
d) The program assumes compatibility of people and organizational goals.

Quality of Work Life Definition

According to the American Society of Training and Development “ QWL is a process


of work organization which enables its members at all levels to participate actively
and effectively in shaping the organisationorganization’s environment, methods and
outcomes. It is a value based process which is aimed towards meeting the twin goals
of enhanced effectiveness of the organisationorganization and imptrovedimproved
quality of life at work for the employees.

Quality of Work Life Meaning


The term quality of work life aims at changing the entire organisationorganizational
climate by humanising work, individualising organisationorganizations and changing
the structural and managerial systems. It takes into consideration the socio-
psychological needs of the employees. It seeks to create such a culture of work
commitment in the organisationorganizations which will ensure higher productivity
and greater job satisfaction for the employees.
Quality of work life refers to the favourableness or unfavourableness of the job
environment of an organisationorganization of its employees. It is generic term which
covers a person’s feelings about every dimension of his work e.g. economic incentives
and rewards, job security, working conditions, organisationorganizational and
interpersonal relationships etc. the QWL has different meanings for different people.
QWL influences the productivity of the employees. Researchers have proved that
good QWL leads to psycologicallypsychologically and physically healthier
employees with positive feelings. To summarise, QWL is the degree to which
employees of an organisationorganization are able to satisfy their personal needs
through experience in the organisationorganization. Its main aim is to create a work
environment where employees work in cooperation with each other and contribute to
organisationorganizational objectives.
The QWL can also be defined as the degree of personal satisfaction experienced at
work. It depentdepend on the extent, to which an employee feels valued, rewarded, Formatted: Left, Indent: Left: 0"
motivated, consulted and enpoweredempowered. It is also influenced by factors such Formatted: Font: (Default) Times New Roman, 9 pt, Bold

as job security, opportunities for career development work patterns and work life Formatted: Justified, Indent: Left: 0"

balance. QWL in its widest sense comprises all matters affecting the health, safety,
comfort and general welfare of the employees and includes provisions for education,
medical aid, recreation, thirst schemes, convalescent houses, day nurseries and
crechescrèches, holidays with play, social insurance, sickness allowances, maternity
benefits, PF, gratuity etc.
QWL is that people get a sense of satisfaction in their work then becomes not a burden
but means by which the abilities of a person can find expression. In most of the Indian
organisationorganizations they are concerned of the quality of the employee, quality
of products and more production but don’t give much emphasis on QWL which is
responsible for more production, quality products and employee satisfaction. This
approach motivates people by satisfying not only their social and psychological ones.
To satisfy the new generation workforce, organisationorganization needs to
concentrate on job designs and organisationorganization of work. Further, today’s
workforce is realising the importance of relationships and is trying to strike a balance
between career and personal lives.

Principles of quality of work life


According to N.Q.Herrick and M. Maccoby there are four basic principles, which
will humanize work and improve the QWL. They are:-

1) Principle of Security
Quality of work life cannot be improved until employees are relieved of their anxiety,
fear and loss of future employment. The working condition must be safe and fear of
economic wanteconomic want should be eliminated. Job security and safety against
environmental hazard is an essential pre condition of humanisation of work.

2) Principle of Equity
There should be a direct and positive relation between effort and reward. All types of
discrimination between people doing similar work and with same level of
performance must be eliminated. Equity also requires sharing the profits of
organisationorganization.

3) Principle of Individualism
Employees differ in terms of their attitude, skills, potentials etc. Therefore every
individual should be provided the opportunity for developing his personality and
potential. Humanisation of work requires that employees are able to decide their own
pace of activities and design of work operations.

4) Principle of Democracy
This means greater authority and responsibiltyresponsibility to employee and
meaningful participation in decision making process. Formatted: Left, Indent: Left: 0"

Major factors affecting the quality of work life


Quality of work life means having good supervision, good working conditions, good
pay and benefits, an inetestinginteresting and challenging and a rewarding job. The
major factors that affect the quality of work life may be stated as:-

 Job satisfaction:
Job satisfaction is the favorable or unfavorable with which employees view their
work. As with motivation, it is affected by the environment. Job satisfaction is
impacted by job design. Jobs that are rich in positive behavioral elements such as
autonomy, variety, task identity, task significance and feedback contribute to
employee’s satisfaction. Likewise, orientation is important because the employee’s
acceptance by the work group contributes to satisfaction. In short, each element of
the environmental system can add to or detract from job satisfaction.

 People:
Almost everyone has to deal with three set of people in the work place. Those are
namely boss, co-workers in the same level and subordinates. Apart from this
some professions need interaction with people like patients, media persons, public,
customers, thieves, robbers, physically disabled people, mentally challenged,
children, foreign delegates, gangsters, politicians, public figures and celebrities.
These situations demand high level of prudence, cool temper, tactfulness, humor,
kindness, diplomacy and sensitiveness.

 Personal and career growth opportunities:


An organization should provide employees with opportunity for personal/professional
development and growth and to prepare them to accept the responsibilities at higher
level. Formatted: Left, Indent: Left: 0"
Formatted: Font: (Default) Times New Roman, 9 pt, Bold
Formatted: Justified, Indent: Left: 0"
 Pay: Formatted: Font: (Default) Times New Roman, 9 pt, Bold

DEPT.OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION BPC COLLEGE, PIRAVOM


11
MANAGEMENT PROJECT A STUDY ON QUALITY OF WORKLIFE OF EMPLOYEES Formatted: Indent: Left: 0"

Quality of work life is basically built around the concept of equitable pay. In
this days ahead, employees may want to participate in the profit of the organization.

 Health conditions of employees:


OrganisatationOrganization should realize that their true wealth lies in their
employees and so providing healthy environment for employees should be their
primary objective.

 Participative management style and recognition:


Flat organization structure helps organization facilitate employee participation. A
Participative management style improves the quality of work life. Workers feel that
they have control over their work process and they also offer the innovative ideas to
improve them. Recognition also helps in motivating employees to perform better.
Recognition can be in form of rewarding employees for their best performance.

 Autonomous Work Teams:


An autonomous work team is one which can plan, regulate and control its own work
world. The management only specifies the goals that too in collaboration with the
team. The team organisesorganizes the contents and structure of its job, evaluates its
own performance, establishes its speed and chooses its production method. It makes
its own internal distribution of tasks and decides its own membership. Autonomous
team approach increases satisfaction and reduces turnover and absenteeism.

 Motivation:
Motivation is a complex subject. It involves the unique feelings, thoughts and past
experiences of each of us as we share a variety of relationships within and outsidde
organizations. To expect a single motivational approach work in every situation is
probably unrealistic. In fact, even theorists and researches take different
points of view about motivation. Nevertheless, motivation can be defined as a
Formatted: Left, Indent: Left: 0"
person’s drive to take an action because that person wants to do so. People act because
Formatted: Font: (Default) Times New Roman, 9 pt, Bold
they feel that they have to. However,ifHowever, if they are motivated they make the Formatted: Justified, Indent: Left: 0"

12

positive choice to act for a purpose because, for example, it may satisfy some of their
needs.

Barriers to quality of work life


 Resistance to change both by management and employees.
 There is a general perception that the implementation of quality of work life
will cost much to the organisationorganization.
 Continuous increase in quality of work life may result in less productivity i.e,
after a certain level the productivity will not increase in proportion to the
increase in quality of work life.
 Widespread unhappiness due to comparison with colleagues.
 Regional prejudice.
 Skepticism about the performance appraisal system and promotion criteria.

Techniques for improving quality of work life


The quality of work life movement is of recent origin and has a long way to go.
Individuals as well as organisedorganized efforts are required to improve the quality
of work life for millions of workers in the country. Some of the techniques used to
improve the QWL are as given below:

 Flexible work schedules:


There should be flexibility in the work schedules of the employees. Alternative work Formatted: Left, Indent: Left: 0"

schedules for the employees can be flexi time, staggered hours, compressed work Formatted: Font: (Default) Times New Roman, 9 pt, Bold
Formatted: Justified, Indent: Left: 0"
week etc. Flexi time is a system of flexible working hours, staggerdstaggered hours
Formatted: Font: (Default) Times New Roman, 9 pt, Bold

DEPT.OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION BPC COLLEGE, PIRAVOM


13
MANAGEMENT PROJECT A STUDY ON QUALITY OF WORKLIFE OF EMPLOYEES Formatted: Indent: Left: 0"

schedule means that different group of employees begin and end work at different
intervals. Compressed work week involves hours of work per day for fewer days per
week.

 Job security:
Employees want stability of employment. Adequate job security provided to the
employees will improve the QWL tpto a large extent.

 Job redesign:
Job redesigning or job enrichment improves the quality of the jobs. It attempts to
provide a person with exciting, interesting, stimulating and challenging work. It helps
to satisfy the higher level needs of the employees.

 Opportunity for development:


Career development is very important for ambitious and achievement oriented
employees. If the employees are provided with opportunities for their advancement
and growth, they will be highly motivated and their commitment to the organization
will increase.

 Autonomous work groups:


Autonomous work groups are also called self managedself-managed work teams. In
such groups the employees are given freedom of decision making. They are
themselves responsible for planning, organizing and controlling the activities of their
groups. The groups are also responsible for their success or failures.

 Employee’s participation in management:


People in the organization should be allowed to partcipateparticipate in the
management decisions affecting their lives. Quality circles, management by
objectives, suggestion system and other forms of employee’s participation in
management help to improve the QWL. Formatted: Left, Indent: Left: 0"

14
MANAGEMENT PROJECT A STUDY ON QUALITY OF WORKLIFE OF EMPLOYEES Formatted: Indent: Left: 0"

 Equitable justice:
The principle of equitable administrative justice should be applied in disciplinary
actions, grievance procedures, promotions, transfers, work assignments etc. Partiality
and biasness at any stage can discourage the workers and effect the QWL.

Scope of quality of Wworklife


Some of the important scopes of the quality of work life, according to
walton,areWalton, are:

1. Adequate and Fair Compensation:

The salary structure of employees should be just, fair and equitable. It should ensure
reasonable wages to employees so that they can keep a desirable standard of life.
Payment of Wages Act, 1936 and Minimum Wages Act 1948 safeguard the interests
of the workers regarding payment of wages. It should be clearly understood that for
QWL, cash payment is not the only answer. However, hefty salaries are being paid to
the knowledge workers so as the meet their basic and higher level needs for improving
their QWL.

2. Safe and Healthy Working Conditions:


In India, Factories Act 1948 contains a number of provisions relating to safety and
health of employees. Employers are increasingly trying to provide better working
conditions to their workers as compared to their competitors. Flexi- hours of work,
zero risk physical conditions of work and safety against noise, pollution, fume, gases
etc. go a long way in effecting the quality of work life.

3. Opportunity to use and Develop Human Capacities:


The QWL will be better if the jobs allow sufficient antonomyantinomy and control to
Formatted: Left, Indent: Left: 0"
its employees. The workers must be given an opportunity to use their skills, abilities
Formatted: Font: (Default) Times New Roman, 9 pt, Bold
and initiative in planning and implementing the work. The senior persons can keep a Formatted: Justified, Indent: Left: 0"
Formatted: Font: (Default) Times New Roman, 9 pt, Bold

DEPT.OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION BPC COLLEGE, PIRAVOM


15
MANAGEMENT PROJECT A STUDY ON QUALITY OF WORKLIFE OF EMPLOYEES Formatted: Indent: Left: 0"

watch and a constant control and also provide immediate feedback to the workers.
Corrective measures can be taken immediately in the light of this feedback.

4. Opportunity to Growth and Security:

When employees are offered opportunities to grow in an organisationorganization by


providing promotion ladder, it helps in improving the QWL. There is an inner desire
in every employee for career progression. If the job is dead-end, it must be made clear
to the employee at the outset.

5. Social Integration in the Work OrganisationOrganization:

An employee develops a sense of belongingness to the organisationorganization


where he works. Discrimination among the employees on the basis of age, gender,
cast, creed, religion etc. can act as a hindrance in the way of social
intergationintegration. Workers develop self-respect as a result of social integration
and it improves the quality of work life.

6. Constitution in the Work OrganisationOrganization:

Every employee should be entitled to some privileges such as personal privacy, right
to expression, right to equitable treatment etc. These should be governed by certain
rules and regulations. In short, there should be the ‘Rule of Law’ as per the
constitution of the enterprise.

7. Work and Total Life Span:

Certain employees are required to work for late hours or are frequently transferred or
have to do a lot of travelling as a part of their duty. This definitely affects their QWL
as they remain away from their families for a long period of time.

8. Social Relevance of Work Life:

Those business enterprises which are engaged in discharging their social


Formatted: Left, Indent: Left: 0"
responsibilities contribute to QWL. If a concern does not care for social obligations,
Formatted: Font: (Default) Times New Roman, 9 pt, Bold

quality products, no control on pollution, bad employment practices are indicators of


low QWL.

d) Time frame
The study covers primary data regarding quality of work life among employees in
Kerala ElectricalandElectrical and Allied Engineering co. Ltd. The data was collected
from employees with help of questionnaire, duringDecemberduring December 7 to
December 23.

e) Scaling techniques
Non- comparative scaling techniques LIKERT scale – respondents are asked to
indicate the amount of agreement or disagreement ( from strongly agree to strongly
disagree) on a 5 or 7 point scale the same format is used for multiple questions typical
test item in a LIKERT scale is statement. The respondent is asked to indicate his or
her degree of agreement with statement or any kind of subjective or objective
evaluation of statement. Traditionally a 5 point scale is used; however
psychometricianpsychometrical may advocate using a seven or nine point scale. A
recent empirical study showed that data from 5 point, 7 points should vary similarly
characteristic in terms of means, variance, skewness and kurtosis after simple rescaling
was applied.

Example of a 5 point scale


 Strongly agree
 Agree
 Not sure
 Disagree
 Strongly disagree
Scaling is a bipolar scaling method, measuring either positive or
negativeresponsenegative response to a statement. Sometimes a four point scale is
used ;used; this is force choice method since the middle portion “nietherneither agree
nor disagree” is not avalibleavailable. Likert scales may be subject to distortion from
several causes. Respondents may avoid using extreme response categories as they try
to portray themselves to organization in favoritefavourite light.

Scoring and analysis


After the questionnaire is completed, each item may be analyzedanalysed separately
or in some cases item response may be summed to create a score for a group of items.
LIKERT scales are often called summative scales. Semantic differential scale was
also used where respondents chossechose between two polar opposite objectives.

Data analysis tools and techniques


Data development tool and data development software are typically used to sort
through enterprise data in order to identify patterns and establish relationships.
Similar to data mining, data development techniques are useful for virtually any
business to gain greater insight in to trends within their business, their industry and
their customer base.
A data development is a circular chart divided into sectors, illustrating relative
magnitudes or frequencies or percentspercent. In a data development, the arc length of
each sector (and consequently its central angle and area )area), is proportional to the
quantity it represents. TogethertheTogether the sector creates a full disc. It is named
for its resemblance to a pie which has been sliced.
A bar development also known as a bar graph, is a chart with rectangular bars of
lengths proportional to that value that they represent. Bar charts are used for
comparing two or more values. The bars can be horizontally or vertically oriented.
Sometimes a stretched bar is used instead of a solid bar.
