Employees around the world are motivated to work and perform effectively based on the kind of positive rewards they expect to earn as a result of their performance. This paper is an attempt to relate quality of work life with the Expectancy theory proposed by Victor Vroom. The three factors of the theory are associated and viewed from the perspective of various work related components such as working environment, amenities and resources with reference to an educational institution in Oman. The paper supports the idea that employees' efforts propelled by positive behavior and valued goals are instrumental in increasing the QWL.
