Exploratory factor analysis revealed five factors, which significantly influence the quality of work life: Opportunity for Professional Development, Autonomy in work, Interpersonal relationship and work environment, Work-life balance, and Job security and remuneration. It is therefore suggested that when attempting to draft policies and programmes for teachers working in higher education sector, these five factors must be kept in mind.
