Abstract
The Quality of Working Life assesses the quality of the relationship between employees and their work environment, reflecting the well-being of employees concerning their professional lives. The metaverse, as a new form and location of work, is poised to alter the work environment significantly. Considering these developments, examining individuals’ intentions to work in the metaverse is crucial. This study aims to analyze the intention to work in the metaverse and its effects on the Quality of Working Life. A designed questionnaire will be used to gather empirical data to test the hypotheses. The analysis will use Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to model and verify relationships between variables. The results are intended to provide insights into employees’ intentions to work in the metaverse against the context of Quality of Working Life. Anticipated influential factors include work-life balance and psychosocial well-being in the metaverse. The PLS-SEM analysis should validate our theoretical model and facilitate the quantification of relationships. This research provides theoretical and practical implications, e.g., for designing digital work environments, and lays the foundation for future studies in this area.
