Nowadays, Ha’il University is seeking accreditation, which includes evidence that the working environment is appropriate for both students and the teaching staff. Also, managements in public higher education institutions recently have utilized quality of work-life as a tool for attracting and retaining talented academic staff. Because with having quality of work-life commitment and loyalty of the employees created to its potential. Thus the aim of this study is to test the mediating effect of quality of work-life on the relationship between work engagement and organizational commitment among academic nursing staff at Ha’il University. Measures were the quality of the work-life scale, the short form of the Utrecht work engagement scale, and an organizational commitment questionnaire. The results indicated that the academic nursing staff had satisfactory levels of work-life quality (3.56±0.62) and high work engagement (4.76±1.12) and a positive organizational commitment result (3.09±0.22). A correlation was found between quality of work-life and organizational commitment. However, there was neither a significant relationship between quality of work-life and work engagement nor was there between work engagement and organizational commitment. The conclusion was therefore that quality of work-life does not mediate the work engagement and organizational commitment relationship.

PurposeThis study contributes to the leadership literature by examining how and when despotic leadership jeopardizes employees' performance. Specifically, we examine whether employees' job performance could be harmed by despotic supervision through employees' work withdrawal behaviour. Moreover, we investigate whether the quality of work-life (QWL) helps in toning down the harmful effects of despotic supervision on work withdrawal.Design/methodology/approachWe used a multi-wave research design with data collected from 195 employees and their supervisors working in Pakistan's manufacturing sector. At time 1, we measured the independent variable (i.e. despotic leadership) and moderator (QWL), whereas, at time-2, the mediator (work withdrawal) was tapped by the same respondent with a time interval of three weeks between them. At time 3, the outcome (supervisor-rated job performance) was assessed directly by the supervisors.FindingsThe results support the mediating effect between despotic leadership and employees' performance through an enhanced level of work withdrawal behaviour. The effect of despotic leadership on job performance via work withdrawal behaviour was found to be weaker among employees with a higher level of QWL.Practical implicationsFor individuals, QWL serves as an enhancement of personal resources to deal with despotic leaders at the workplace; for organizations, our study results alert managers and leaders at the workplace to address employees' need for QWL as this positive resource may discourage work withdrawal behaviour and stimulate employees to perform well in their jobs despite facing despotic supervision.Originality/valueThis study contributes to the leadership literature by introducing work withdrawal as an underlying mechanism to explain the despotic leadership – job performance relationship. Further, we examined how the harmful effects of despotic leadership can be toned down through the moderating variable of QWL thus having practical implications for both employers and employees.
