Abstract :
The sole distinction between active and busy people and those who practice work holism is how they organize their lives and jobs. The purpose of this study was to investigate how the quality of work life affected the general health aspects in the personnel at the Khoy branch of Islamic Azad University. It uses a descriptive-analytical research methodology. 225 people were chosen through the census method. The data were gathered using the work holism of Spence and Robbins (1992), Walton's quality of work life (1973), and the General Health Questionnaire (1996), and their reliability was determined using Cronbach's alpha. The data was analyzed using the Pearson correlation coefficient and structural equations. The Pearson coefficient results revealed a strong negative association between work holism and overall health (r=-0.51) as well as between work holism and quality of work life (r=-0.49). According to the results of the structural equations, the relationship between work-life balance and employee QWL had the greatest impact (52%) and had a 15% impact on employees' general health. Work holism can have a negative impact on an employee's general health and quality of work life. Managers can identify these workers and offer them a variety of programs to improve their general health and QWL because bettering public health and the quality of work life encourages continuous employee presence, which in turn increases productivity.
