Abstract

Introduction The world today is the world of organizations. The custodians of these organizations are human beings. Organizations not only have no sense without human resources, but also their administration is not possible; on the other hand, the educational systems in the developed countries are of particular importance and have a significant impact on different sectors of society. In the meantime, manpower is the most important source that constantly moves the organization's wheel and the organization's progress and continuity depends on its ability. Also, the productivity of the educational organization depends on a lot of factors, partly due to the performance of teachers, their empowerment and their organizational and professional commitment. Certainly, more successful organizations have stronger and more committed human resources. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between quality of work life components and the dimensions of psychological empowerment among employees of Urmia University in order to create the model to achieve the desired goals and establish an empowered university. Thus, the research hypothesis propounds that there is a relationship between the components of quality of work life and the dimensions of psychological empowerment among university staff. Method The present study is correlational. The statistical population of the study was Urmia University's staff of 720 people, 250 of whom were selected by stratified random sampling. Data were collected using two standard quality of work life questionnaires based on the Walton model (1973) and psychological empowerment based on the Thomas and Voltauss model (1990) and analyzed by focal correlation method. Results The results showed that the correlation between the quality of working life and the dimensions of psychological empowerment was 0. 44. The Lambdai-Wilkes index was 0. 16 and the corresponding F-statistic was 13. 13 which was significant at 0. 001. Also, 63 percent of the variance in the dimensions of psychological empowerment was explained by the components of quality of work life. Discussion Therefore, it can be concluded that quality of work life is an approach which justifies the adoption of policies and procedures in light of the improvement of the general conditions of the workplace, and plays an essential and important role in increasing the empowerment of human resources and, consequently, the efficiency and effectiveness of organizations. on the other hand, the empowerment of human resources as a new motivational approach to the job requires the liberation of the internal forces of the employees, as well as provision of the ground and creation of opportunities for the development of talents, abilities and competencies of individuals.
