Abstract

This study examined the employees’ quality of work life, job enrichment, and job satisfaction in the Department of Education (DepEd) within the Province of Capiz, Philippines, for the year 2024. A total of 73 non teaching employees from the Capiz and Roxas City Divisions participated, selected through purposive sampling from the Administrative, Technical, and Operations units. A researcher made questionnaire served as the primary instrument, adapted from Andaleza and Martir (2023) for quality of work life and job enrichment, and from Schweyer, Rosenbaum, and Lin (2024) for job satisfaction. The tool consisted of four parts- profile, quality of work life, job enrichment, and job satisfaction and was subjected to validity and reliability testing prior to administration. Data collection was conducted in one day during office hours, involving only employees who were present and willing to participate. Data were analyzed using frequency count, percentages, mean, Mann Whitney U Test, Kruskal Wallis H Test, and Spearman’s rho. Results showed that most respondents were old, highly educated, mid level in service, non permanent, and concentrated in rank and file positions, with representation across all units. Employees consistently rated their quality of work life as “very high”, job enrichment to a “great extent”, and job satisfaction “high”. No significant differences were found in employees’ quality of work life, job enrichment, and job satisfaction when classified by age, educational attainment, length of service, employment status, position, or unit of assignment. A strong and significant relationship was observed between quality of work life and job enrichment, whereas the associations of quality of work life with job satisfaction and job enrichment with job satisfaction were weak and not statistically significant.
