INTRODUCTION

Quality of Work Life is the quality of relationship between employees and total work
environment, concern for the impact of work on individuals as well as on organizational
effectiveness and the idea of participation in organizational problem solving and decision
making. The success of every organization is highly dependent on the utilization of
organizational goals. To achieve organizational goals, individual goals have to be satisfied,
in that Quality of work life directly contributes to the utilization, development and
achievement of organization and human resource goals. The research model for this study
was based on the factors affecting Quality of work- life and the relationships between
QWL and satisfaction of the employees in the Private Limited Companies.

Quality of Work Life of the employees in an organization is the work environment. It is

the responsibility of the management to provide a work environment, which is conducive to
good performance. To prevent such a possibility from arising, the management should
provide a good working environment where employees can work without stress, where
necessary information for accomplishing tasks is made available, adequate and fair
compensation given in the workplace is safe, healthy and the supervisors motivate the
employees.

The Management in every organization should sincerely invite their employees to suggest
ways to improve their operation and the quality of their work life, only if these ideas are
received in a spirit of appreciation. The employees should then be asked to participate in
studying the feasibility that survives such review. Employee Security, Career
Opportunities, and the Opportunities for Employees to have voice in matters which affect
them is entirely consistent with meticulously controlled operations in the interest of
effectiveness, Quality Assurance, Customer Service, Profitability and High Morale.
