According to Trehan Ruchi (2008), "QWL includes aspects of work-related life such as wages and hours, work environment, benefits and services, career prospects and human relations, which is possibly relevant to worker satisfaction and motivation". Hence, the organization, particularly schools need to provide quality of work life to the teachers to ensure to deliver quality education. Hence, quality work life environment has to be provided to all the teachers irrespective of any demographic profile.
