INFLUENCE OF QUALITY OF WORK-LIFE AND SUPERVISORY SUPPORT ON PERCEIVED JOB PERFORMANCE OF EMPLOYEES IN THE PAPER MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY

Work is significant in human life as it allows individuals to direct their energy towards meaningful objectives and effectively manage their time. The significance of the human element in determining the success or failure of an organization is well-established, and therefore, the emphasis placed on this aspect is not a recent development. Furthermore, it plays a crucial role in promoting positive mental well-being, which is the outcome of experiencing satisfaction with one’s life. Given that individuals typically spend a significant portion of their day engaged in work-related activities, it is logical to assume that their level of satisfaction in the workplace would directly impact their performance and productivity. This study seeks to assess the quality of work life (QWL) among employees in the paper industry and examine the associations between QWL, supervisory support, and perceived job performance. A survey was administered to a sample of 200 employees selected through the convenient sampling technique. The findings demonstrate a significant correlation between QWL and Supervisory Support with employees’ perceived job performance in the paper manufacturing sector.
