Abstract	The study examines the relationship between Quality of work life (QWL) and job performance among the faculty of technical institutions in the state of Punjab, India. Data collected from a sample of 445 respondents through a structured questionnaire have been put to data analysis with the help of the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS 20). Four factors that are associated with QWL (i.e., management policies, fair pay, work environment, and job design & social space) have been identified through Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA). Subsequently, the relationship between the identified factors of QWL and job performance is modelled through Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM). The results infer that all four factors of QWL have a substantial association with job performance of the faculty. The study puts forward improvement in the level of existing institutional measures to ensure a superior QWL and improved performance of faculty in the technical education sector. (As Provided).
