quality of working life
21.12.2022
Quality of working life in the Czech Republic has been regularly assessed at the national level using the Subjective Quality of Working Life index (SQWLi), yet little is known about the relationships between the individual domains, as well as their relationships with other aspects of workers’ lives. This article shows that there is a strong correlation among the domains in terms of importance and evaluation, separately, but the cross-correlation between importance and evaluation is low. Higher work flexibility, better overall job characteristics, and better physical and mental health are all associated with higher working life evaluation.

This article reports on the regional differences in subjectively perceived quality of working life – measured using the Subjective Quality of Working Life index – in the Czech Republic. Using survey responses from 2,026 workers from 2020, representative of the working population, we show that variance in quality of working life is lower than in objective measures of social and economic development. At the same time, both importance and evaluation of the quality of working life domains are linked to macroeconomic characteristics, specifically unemployment and average gross wage.
