| Summary: | The results of economic experiments in the world show that if any country wants to be a pioneer in economy and not to lag behind in the competition, it has to have experienced, skillful, motivated, innovative and creative manpower. We wouldn’t expect any improvement in productivity if we couldn’t meet welfare and living needs of the personnel and if we couldn’t attain a competency- oriented system, equity and justice through comprehensive performance evaluation system. The term "quality of work life" has repeatedly been used as a criterion of human experience quality at work. Managers increasingly expect that the productivity of an organization should create facilities which maintain employees' quality of work life. The concept of quality of work life indicates the importance of people at work and the respect for them.
In this paper the relationship between productivity and quality of work life has been evaluated. These two terms are part of the seven overall performance measurement criteria for any organization that needs to assess and measure. Initially, some definitions have been presented about productivity and the quality of work life, and then the correlation of them has been evaluated using a case study on a manufacturing firm. The results of this study show the meaningful relation between the overall productivity, labor productivity and the quality of work life in the firm under study and demonstrate the amount of correlation between them. |
