At the passage of various important policies of high educations in Taiwan, the undergraduate educations have entered a new milestone toward a direction of pursuing excellence, diversification and autonomy. After three years the number of undergraduate schools is going up to the total of 153, the educational market becomes very competitive. The maintenance of equilibrium of high educational quality and quantity is dependent on high qualitative faculties, but the quality of work life (QWL) of faculties, contributed their lives in high education in long-term period, is ignored in many perspectives. The domestic academic researches are lack of the study of QWL of teachers in undergraduate schools. Only Professor徐宗國 in 1995 reported the results of the research related to time, housework and QWL of female undergraduate teachers, which was focused on the exploration of female teachers by the qualitative research. Currently, the teachers in the private schools frequently resign, does the situation mean that the conditions of QWL and job satisfaction are not good for faculties in the private undergraduate schools? Therefore, the keynotes of this research are focused on the conception of QWL, the dimensions of QWL, the reform of QWL of undergraduate faculties in order to develop the policies decreased the variation of teachers. Based on these purposes, this research applies the questionnaires with the statistic methods, such as factors analysis, descriptive statistics, regression analysis, to explore the relationships of variables and interpret the significance of management of relationships. The QWL table is translated from the foreign nation; therefore, it is not suitable to directly apply in the special workplaces of domestic universities. The QWL table and the job satisfaction table used in this study are reformed many times by various specialists and professors in order to accord with domestic faculties. The Cronbach’s α of these tables is up to 0.82, which is one of contributions of this research.
This research area is included fourteen domestic private universities and focused on full-time teachers. Questionnaires are sent out totaled 1510 and returned back 745 (49.33%). The variable samples are totaled 707. As the results of this research show, there is significant difference between the dimensions of education, teaching tenure and the conceptions of QWL. The conceptions of QWL and job satisfactions are significantly related with the attributes of organizations, such as the categories and scales of schools, the timing of school foundation, the situation of school transformations. There is significant difference between the attributes of organizations, (such as the categories of schools, the number of teachers and students, the timing of school foundation and the situation of school transformation), and the intention of teachers’ resignations. The intention of resignation is also significantly related with age, marriage, tenure and job ranks. In the final part, the research conclusion and suggestions can be offered to the private universities, the bureau of education and researchers are one of contributions in this study.
In this research, first, because of the limitations of time, expenditure, and the collection of returned questionnaires, it is difficult to pervasively investigate all private universities in Taiwan. Further, the second limitation of this research is impossibly proved these results for lack of the related documents, such as QWL of private school faculties.
