Abstract
The present study is designed to investigate the relationship of QWL and various job specific demographic variables of veterinary
doctors working under Dept. of Animal Husbandry, Punjab. The purpose of this study is to provide the current profile of doctors toward work life. Primary data from 322 respondents were collected with the help of a pre-tested questionnaire to have an insight of thoughts of opinions of respondents relating to the research problem. In order to identify the demographic variables which significantly affect QWL among the respondents, regression analysis for each of the variable (continuous, dichotomous and nominal) has been performed. The analysis reveals that age, job experience, sufficient income, sufficient time, and sufficient social support have been found to be significant explanatory variables of QWL of the respondents, whereas distance of residence from work place, monthly expenditure, working or not working spouse, average weekly hours, and social and economic background have not been found to be significant explanatory variables.
