PREFACE

Growing spiritually can be like a roller coaster ride. Take comfort into the knowledge that the
way down is only preparation for the way up.

In the current perspective we know that no knowledge is complete without knowing practical
aspect of it. Along with various interesting things concerned with enhancing the understanding of
MBA student, the 7 – 8 weeks training is also very vital.

The theoretical knowledge & conceited ideas are the enough background for the career

Mini project
On Quality of Work
Life
Of
wockhardt
Introduction:
Quality of work life refers to the level of happiness or dissatisfaction with one's career. Those
who enjoy their careers are said to have a high quality of work life, while those who are unhappy
or whose needs are otherwise unfilled are said to have a low quality of work life

Definition:-

 Quality of life is defined as the level of enjoyment in a person's life. In general, it is based
on many factors. At a minimum, a person's basic needs must be met for them to have a
high quality of life---they must be generally healthy, have enough to eat and have a place
to live. Once a person's basic needs are met, that person's quality of life is largely
determined by their own personality, their desires and their level of personal fulfillment.
A person with a high quality of life tends to feel as though all of their important needs
and wants are fulfilled. They are generally happy and overall feel as though their life is
good. A person without quality of life is lacking in one or several basic areas of his life.
For example, the very ill or those who are no longer able to care for themselves or do
activities they enjoy because of physical, mental or financial restrictions are often said to
have a low quality of life.

Application to the Workplace


 Quality of work life is specifically related to the level of happiness a person derives for
his career. Each person has different needs when it comes to their careers; the quality
level of their work life is determined by whether those needs are being met. While some
people might be content with a simple minimum wage job as long as it helps pay the
bills, others would find such a job to be too tedious or involve too much physical labor
and would find such a position to be highly unsatisfactory. Thus, requirements for having
a high "quality of work life" vary from person to person. Regardless of their standards,
those with a high quality of work life generally make enough to live comfortably, find
their work to be interesting or engaging and achieve a level of personal satisfaction or
fulfillment from the jobs that they do. In other words, employees who are generally
happy with their work are said to have a high quality of work life, and those who are
unhappy or unfulfilled by their work are said to have a low quality of work life.
Requirements

 While requirements for a high quality of work life vary from person to person, certain
factors are generally required for anyone to have a high quality of work life. These
minimum factors are the equivalent of heath, food and shelter for standard quality of life;
however, they are more specific to careers or jobs. For example, to have a high quality of
work life, generally a person must be respected at work. Coworkers and senior level
employees must treat them fairly and politely. The work must not cause the employee
any physical discomfort or mental anguish. The employee must feel as though he is doing
something enjoyable or at least not unpleasant. The worker must feel the salary he is paid
is sufficient for the work he is doing. Finally, the employee must feel valued or
appreciated, as though he is doing something of importance for the company.

Achieving a High Quality of Work Life

 To achieve a high quality of work life, it is essential to choose a job that fulfills your
needs. First, you must determine what those needs are. If you want a job that engages
your mind and challenges you, it is important to understand that in advance so you can
earn the qualifications that will allow you to obtain such a job. It is helpful if you choose
a job you are interested in; you need to consider what your interests are and research jobs
within those areas. Make a list of things you are looking for in a job and speak with a
career counselor or attend career fairs to determine which jobs are most likely to fulfill
those needs. Finally, pay attention to your interaction with existing employees when you
go for interviews---the way you are treated by your boss and coworkers will have a
tremendous impact on your quality of work life. You will want to ensure the culture of
the business matches your own comfort level.

Dealing with a Low Quality Work Life

 Unfortunately, despite their best efforts, some people find themselves with a low quality
of work life. They may be forced to take a job they don't enjoy because of personal or
financial circumstances such as a lack of options or education or qualifications. For those
with a low quality of work life who are unable or unwilling to change jobs, it is important
to cope effectively with the situation. Unhappy employees can attempt to improve their
quality of work life by choosing to focus on the positive components of their jobs. A shift
in mindset to focus on the benefits, even if those benefits are minimal, can improve the
quality of work life. Unhappy employees can also explore opportunities to speak to
coworkers and management to remove factors that reduce the quality of their work life, if
possible depending on the job situation
OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY

 To identify interpersonal relations between employees.

Review of Literature
Quality of work life refers to the level of happiness or dissatisfaction with one's career. Those
who enjoy their careers are said to have a high quality of work life, while those who are unhappy
or whose needs are otherwise unfilled are said to have a low quality of work life

Definition:-

Quality of life is defined as the level of enjoyment in a person's life. In general, it is based on
many factors. At a minimum, a person's basic needs must be met for them to have a high quality
of life---they must be generally healthy, have enough to eat and have a place to live. Once a
person's basic needs are met, that person's quality of life is largely determined by their own
personality, their desires and their level of personal fulfillment. A person with a high quality of
life tends to feel as though all of their important needs and wants are fulfilled. They are generally
happy and overall feel as though their life is good. A person without quality of life is lacking in
one or several basic areas of his life. For example, the very ill or those who are no longer able to
care for themselves or do activities they enjoy because of physical, mental or financial
restrictions are often said to have a low quality of life.
The Assigned Task
o In assessing the quality of work life, it is important that the employee feel that the task
assigned is valued within the organization. The task should fit his skills and abilities,
allow the employee to supervise the progress of the task and provide a way for the
employee to reach his ultimate goal within the company.

Physical Work Environment


o The physical work environment centers on the physical space that the employee is
working in or a space that will be used in the future. The physical environment should be
safe and healthy, and provide the resources necessary to complete the assigned task. An
ideal physical environment is mentally stimulated with all of the necessary job tools
present and ready for use.
Administrative System
o The administrative system refers to how the organization is managed. An employee with
a healthy quality of work life will feel supported and encouraged to do well by the
administration. The aforementioned study suggests that employees are looking for work
environments where they have access to fair assessments and feedback, and the ability to
advance within the organization.
Although employees want to be fairly compensated for their roles, more importance is
placed on the perception of job prestige from internal and external sources
Work Life vs. Home Life
o This element is a little harder for businesses to affect because it is rooted in personal
perceptions. Every employee is different and that brings a different view on the perfect
work and life balance.
In attempting to create a fair work and life balance, organizations should consider the
effect of the job on the family, the level and type of stress the job produces, and the
ultimate career goal of the individual employee. Some companies have addressed this by
allowing telecommuting, flex schedules or job sharing in lieu of longer hours or increased
responsibility.
