Quality of Work Life

A multi-faceted concept. There exists a relationship between Q.W.L and productivity. Q.W.L is any conscious effort for improving working conditions, work content, and its safety, security, wages and benefits, etc. Q.W.L is a concern not only to improve life at work, but also life outside work. These procedures or policies include autonomy, recognition, belongingness, development and external rewards.

Quality of Work Life

Mass-production technology has made workers job monotonous and it is of little meaning to him. Results of low Q.W.L are absenteeism, low performance, poor morale and occasional sabotage. Ultimately it is the organization that suffers.

Quality of Work Life-Origin of the concept

After Industrial Revolution, the importance of human factor reduced because of the vast mechanization. Various problems like job dissatisfaction, boredom, absenteeism, lack of commitment etc came up. Most mgt theories gave emphasis on production, manipulating the skills of the employees Tavi Stock Institute of Human Relations, London conducted some research on workers problems in Industrial world and they produced a study approach called Socio-technical system in which they gave great importance to Job Design to satisfy the need for Q.W.L in an Organization.

Objectives of Q.W.L
To improve the standard of living of the employees. To increase the productivity. To create a positive attitude in the minds of the employees. To increase the effectiveness of the organization (Profitability, goal accomplishment etc.).

Factors affecting Quality of Work Life

Some people consider Q.W.L as the existence of a certain set of original conditions and practices. They agree that high Q.W.L exists when:

When employees jobs are enriching. They are treated with dignity and safe working conditions are present.
Others equate Q.W.L with the impact of working conditions on the employee's well-being.

Measuring of Q.W.L
Questionnaires and interviews are relevant here. In Hrishik Exports the management gives a questionnaire of 25 critical dimensions of Q.W.L to its employees. The responses are then used to measure the employees perception of their work life.

Which of the following best describes your usual work schedule?

How many days per month do you work extra hours beyond your usual schedule? Enter days ______

How hard is it to take time off during your work to take care of personal or family matters?

How is the Quality of Food At Cafeteria?

How is The Transport Facility?

Implementation of Q.W.L
Management and Employees co-operation- A worker-Mgt committee on work improvement can function effectively to increase co-operation. Action plans developed must be followed to completion. Support of middle-managers by top management and bottom-level employees to implement the program. The objectives of Q.W.L should be a joint one, i.e., for workers it is to improve Q.W.L; for management it is to improve organizational efficiency.

Barriers to Q.W.L
Resistance to change both by mgt and employees. There is a general perception that Q.W.L implementation will cost much to the organization. Continuous increase in Q.W.L may result in less productivity, i.e., after a certain level the productivity will not increase in proportion to the increase in Q.W.L.

Barriers to Q.W.L in India

(According to Dr. S.K. Chakraborty of IIM-C)
Skepticism about the performance appraisal system and promotion criteria. Frequent fits of anger of top level officials. Regional prejudice. Unreasonable personal expectation.

SUGGESTIONS
The Shift Should be more regular and fixed so that the employees can adjust themselves with the routine. The work process should be smoother, so that the employees can complete their assigned for within the working hours. The food quality and the ambience should be maintain so as to generate a positive environment in the organization. The transportation should be punctual and convenient for all the section of employees, so that they can come relaxed.
