Abstract

The objective of this independent study was to investigate relationship between quality of work life and organizational engagement with the focus on the level of quality of work life and that of organizational engagement, as well as the demographic factors that affected quality of work life and organizational engagement. The samples, chosen by random sampling, were 300 government school teachers working at 7 public schools in Chonburi Province. The statistics used for data analysis comprised Percentage, Mean, Standard Deviation, Independent Samples t-test, One-way ANOVA, Least Significant Difference, and Pearson Correlation Coefficient. It was found that most respondents were female, aged between 20-29 years, holding bachelor’s degree with 1-5 work experience. The overall level of quality of work life was at a high level with 3.71 of mean score. Similarly, that of organizational engagement was at a high level with 3.95. For demographic factors, their different sex and educational background indicated no statistical difference on organizational engagement. However, their different age and work experience affected the level of organizational engagement at a .05 statistically significant difference. In other words, the older they are and the longer they have been working, the higher level of their organizational engagement they have. This correlated with the result drawn from the analysis by Pearson Correlation Coefficient. Finally, all aspects of quality of work life showed their relationship with organizational engagement at a significance level of 0.05. Particularly, their occupation as a teacher that directly affected social context demonstrated the highest correlation at a significance level of .567.
