If the quality of life at work could be improved, it would benefit and reward the individual employee but also the company, its customers and society as a whole.
Companies should recognize the need not to burn employees out, not to exploit employees, realize they have homes and families etc.
Job satisfaction is not as much about the job itself as it is about how you hold the circumstances of your job in mind. Quality of life in the work place comes when you separate who you are from “the job”—when you can look at what you do as a source of energy, fulfillment and learning.
