CHAPTER-1

1 .1 INTRODUCTION ABOUT THE STUDY

The emergence of concept of Quality of Work Life (QWL) during 1970s which aims at
integrating the socio-psychological needs of people in the organization, the unique
requirements of a particular technology, the structure and processes of the organization, and
socio-cultural milieu, From the shop floor, the concept of quality of work life spread to other
parts of the organization covering white-collar employees and even managerial personnel.
The aim of Quality of Work Life is to identify and implement alternative programs to improve
the quality of professional as well as personal life of an organization’s employees.

Definitions

Quality of Work Life can be defined as “The Quality of relationship between employees and
the total working environment”.

Quality of Work Life is a process by which an organization responds to employee needs for
developing mechanisms to allow them to share fully in making the decisions that design their
lives at work.

Quality of Work Life Programs Can Be Evaluated On The Basis Of Following Points

a. Fair Compensation and Job Security: The economic interests of people drive them to
work at a job and employee satisfaction depends at least partially, on the compensation
offered. Pay should be fixed on the basis of the work done, responsibilities undertaken,
individual skills, performance and accomplishments. Job security is another factor that is of
concern to employees. Permanent employment provides security to the employees and
improves their Quality of Work Life.

b. Health Is Wealth: Organizations should realize that their true wealth lies in their
employees and so providing a healthy work environment for employees should be their
primary objective.

11
c. Provide Personal and Career Growth Opportunities: An organization should provide
employees with opportunities for personal/professional development and growth and to
prepare them to accept responsibilities at higher levels.

d. Participative Management Style and Recognition: Flat organizational structures help


organizations facilitate employee participation. A participative management style improves
the quality of work life. Workers feel that they have control over their work processes and
they also offer innovative ideas to improve them. Recognition also helps to motivate
employees to perform better. Recognition can be in the form of rewarding employees for jobs
well done.

e. Work-Life Balance: Organizations should provide relaxation time for the employees and
offer tips to balance their personal and professional lives. They should not strain employee’s
personal and social life by forcing on them demanding working hours, overtime work,
business travel, untimely transfers etc.

f. Fun at Workplace: This is growing trend adopted by today’s organizations to make their
offices a fun place to work.

 Safe and healthy working conditions.
 Opportunities for career growth.
 Work and personal life.

 Career development.
 Flexible work schedule.

GDP of the country. Indian textile industry is also the largest in the country in terms of
employment generation. It not only generates jobs in its own industry, but also opens up
scopes for the other ancillary sectors. Indian textile industry currently generates employment
to more than 35 million people. It is also estimated that, the industry will generate 12 million
new jobs by the year 2010.

14
34.6 billion. The textile export of the country was around US$ 19.14 billion in 2006-07, which saw a
stiff rise to reach US$ 22.13 in 2007-08. The share of exports is also expected to increase from 4% to
7% within 2012. Following are area, production and productivity of cotton in India during the last
decade:

2.3 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

25
Research methodology refers to the method that the researcher uses in performing research
operation. It describes the various steps that are generally adopted by a researcher in studying
the research problem along with the logic behind them.

Research Definition

Research is a systematic method of identifying the problem, formulating the hypothesis,


collecting the facts or data, analyzing the facts and reaching certain conclusion either in the
form of solutions towards the concerned problem or in certain generalization for some
theoretical formulations.

Research is a systematic method of finding solutions to problems. It is essentially an


investigation, a recording and an analysis of evidence for the purpose of gaining knowledge.
According to Clifford woody, “Research comprises of defining and redefining problem,
formulating hypothesis or suggested solutions, collecting, organizing and evaluating data,
reaching conclusions, testing conclusions to determine whether they fit the formulated
hypothesis”.

Research Design

A research design is simply the framework or plan for a study. The design may be a specific
presentation of the various steps in the process of research. For this descriptive design was

N = Total number of observation.

2.4 REVIEW OF LITERATURE

28
Quality of work life has been differentiated from the broader concept of quality of life. To
some degree, this may be overly simplistic, as Elizur and Shye, (1990) concluded that quality
of work performance is affected by quality of life as well as quality of working life. However,
it will be argued here that the specific attention to work-related aspects of quality of life is
valid.

Models and Components of Quality of Work Life

Various authors and researchers have proposed models of Quality of Work Life which include
a wide range of factors. Selected models are reviewed below.

Hackman and Oldham (1976) drew attention to what they described as psychological growth
needs as relevant to the consideration of Quality of Work Life. Several such needs were
identified:

 Skill Variety.
 Task Identity.

 Task Significance.

 Autonomy.

 Feedback.

They suggested that such needs have to be addressed if employees are to experience high
quality of work life.

In contrast to such theory based models, Taylor (1979) more pragmatically identified the
essential components of quality of working life as basic extrinsic job factors of wages, hours
and working conditions, and the intrinsic job notions of the nature of the work itself. He
suggested that a number of other aspects could be added, including:

29
 Individual Power.
 Employee Participation in the Management.

 Fairness and Equity.

 Social Support.

 Use of One’s Present Skills.

 Self Development.

 A Meaningful Future at Work.

 Social Relevance of the Work or Product.

 Effect on Extra Work Activities.

Taylor suggested that relevant quality of working life concepts may vary according to
organization and employee group.

Mirvis and Lawler (1984) suggested that quality of working life was associated with
satisfaction with wages, hours and working conditions, describing the “basic elements of a
good quality of work life” as:

 Safe Work Environment.


 Equitable Wages.

 Equal Employment Opportunities.

 Opportunities Advancement.

Baba and Jamal (1991) listed what they described as typical indicators of quality of working
life, including:

 Job Satisfaction.
 Job Involvement.

 Work Role Ambiguity.

 Work Role Conflict.

30
 Work Role Overload.

 Job Stress.

 Organizational Commitment.

 Turn-Over Intentions.

CHAPTER-3

DATA ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION

Data analysis and interpretation is an attempt to organize and summarize in order to increase
results usefulness in such a manner that enables the researcher to relate critical points with the
study objectives. Sometimes the organising and summarising of data require the uses of
statistical measures such as percentages.

In this industrial project percentage is used to make comparison between two or more than
series of data. It is used to describe the relationships. But when the percentages are used, it
becomes very easy to find the relative difference in the distribution.

For this study about the “Quality of Work Life of Employees in Summer India Textiles Pvt
Limited, Tiruchengode”, data are collected by interviewing the employees and by using
questionnaire. The responses are recorded by me and all those data are analysing in this
chapter.
