บทคัดย่อ

This survey research explores the intricate relationship between the Quality of Working Life (QWL) and the overall quality of life among the working-age population in Samut Songkhram province, with a particular focus on the impact of evolving workplace challenges. The study utilizes a questionnaire-based approach and involves a sample of 399 individuals. The analysis reveals that under standard conditions, the participants reported an excellent quality of working life, with notable strengths in areas such as a proper and safe work environment and substantial development potential. However, amidst shifting occupational landscapes, the overall QWL dropped to a moderate level. Notably, factors such as nutritional responsibility, physical activity, and stress management showed significant correlations with the quality of working life, emphasizing the importance of holistic well-being in the workplace. The findings highlight the need for targeted interventions and support mechanisms, including workplace activities and counseling services, to enhance the working quality and ultimately contribute to a better quality of life for the working-age population in the modern era. Further research is recommended to investigate the long-term effects and extend the study to other populations.
