How can you create better 'Quality of Working Life'?
Picture of smiling woman with coffee cup and good QoWL QoWL is a university spin out company created to help employers improve the Quality of Working Life (QoWL) of their staff.

Our 'QoWL theory' assessment tools and scales are used worldwide to measure the quality of working life of employees and are based on over 10 years of peer-reviewed university research and our work in many types of organisation.

Do you want to improve the quality of working life in your organisation?
Our mission is to improve QoWL for everyone. Perhaps we could help you survey QoWL to establish benchmarks for your employees? We'll even explain to your managers the strategies other organisations have used to improve employee engagement and reduce the negative effects of poor QoWL.

Of course, it may be you already have great QoWL and would like to celebrate this by asking us to gather the evidence and to tell the whole world about it!

Can you help us create a better Quality of Working Life?

Quality of Working Life is defined as a measure of how good your work is for you. It's more than just job satisfaction or work happiness, but the widest context in which an employee would evaluate their work environment.
