The questionnaire consists of two parts. The first part contains questions about the demographic characteristics of employees. In the second part, there are questions aimed at measuring the perceptions of the employees about the factors affecting the quality of working life.According to the obtained data, "Occupational Accident, Occupational Disease Risks and Physical Working Conditions at Work" is the least effective factor, while "Organizational Social Integration" is the most important factor in the perceptions of the working life quality for participants in this study.
