Abstract

This study determined the best fit model of quality of work life among teachers in Cluster 13 Division of Davao City. The descriptive-correlational design was utilized in this study. Data were gathered through survey questionnaires and there were 150 teachers who were selected using purposive sampling. Mean was employed in analyzing the levels of job satisfaction, leadership behavior,  organizational climate, and quality of work life. Pearson-product moment correlation was used to analyze the relationships that exist among the variables. A Multiple Regression Analysis was used to measure the influence of job satisfaction,  leadership behavior, and organizational climate on quality of work life. Furthermore, path analysis with structural equation modeling was utilized to find the best-fit model of quality of work life. The results showed that the teachers have high levels of leadership behavior, organizational climate, and quality of work life, while the level of teachers’ job satisfaction was moderate. Moreover, only the leadership behavior and organizational climate significantly predict teachers’ quality of work life while job satisfaction does not significantly predict the quality of work life.  Furthermore, the best-fit model of quality of work life was Hypothesized Model 5 which passed all the goodness of fit indices.
