Abstract

Over the last decade, much research has been conducted in the field of quality of work life(QWL) and its associations with the creative behavior of employees. Prior studies have found substantial positive evidence for statistical associations between QWL and creative behavior. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationships between QWL dimensions and creative behavior. This study examines the relationships between QWL dimensions and creative behavior.

A percentage of (90%) was obtained from retrieving (62) valid questionnaires. The research study is drawn scientifically using the simple random sampling technique.

The Faculty of Applied Sciences of the University of Kasdi Merbah Ouargla advises that training sessions and awareness campaigns be held to raise awareness of the system of salaries, wages, rewards, and employees’ obligations to their jobs.
