Year: 2025
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: This study aims to determine the effect of Quality of Work Life (QWL) on Organizational Commitment (OC) among the employees of a local port company, and to propose inputs to enhance their Human Resource (HR) program. Quantitative research was used to describe QWL and OC. The study utilized complete enumeration and frequency and percentages, Pearson correlation, and Stepwise regression to analyze the data. It was found that the HR Program is based on the government mandates. The company is yet to have a specific program for flexibility and work-life balance (FWLB). For compensation and benefits (CB), it is compliant with government mandates. As to retention and turnover (RT), the company complies with the ordinance prioritizing barangay residents in hiring and retention. While the labor manage-ment relations program (LMR) is anchored in the head office. Overall results revealed that QWL aspects in terms of FWLB, CB, RT, and LMR generated 86.56%, 57.84%, 77.46% and 88.00% of agreement, respectively. The level of OC agreement generated 88.7%. Only FWLB affects the level of OC. The study concludes that the employees have a high level of QWL and OC. This study also supported that QWL is essential for employees to remain committed.
