Summary:Employees influence substantially the organizational outcomes. Their point of view about some organizational elements may influence, and also be influenced by, their kind of links developed to the organization. Within that context, this research aims to analyze the possible relationships between quality of work life, organizational commitment and organizational entrenchment.
