ABSTRACT

The study investigated the relationship between work motivation and quality of work life among garment sector executive employees. Quality of work life conditions and feelings were the independent variables of the study. Autonomy, work speed and routine, task related interaction, personal growth and opportunity, and work complexity were the sub factors of quality of work life conditions. Work motivation was the dependent variable of the study and was defined in terms of satisfaction in six areas i.e. dependence, organizational orientation, work group relations, psychological work incentives, material incentives and job situation. The study adopted convenient sampling method for data collection. The total sample of the study consisted of 31 executive employees of a major garment manufacturing unit in the city of Bangalore. The hypotheses of the study were tested using Pearson’s product moment correlation. Results indicate that other than the relationship between few of the sub factors of both variables total quality of work life condition and feelings are not related with total work motivation.
