Why is it important?

There is an empirically validated positive impact of recorded music on quality of work life (QWL) for employees during work. This serves as the foundation on which this particular paper is focused. The paper discusses some evidences and experiments on how the amalgamation of music in the working environment is significant for better work related to performance, satisfaction and as a focus building tool. Finally with the help of a causal loop diagram (CLD) made through NGT workshops with the experts, the study attempts to explain the cyclic relationship between music insertion and employee satisfaction along with several in-between variables.

Perspectives

According to researches, it certainly does. Music has a wide applicability across all the disciplines and the contribution of eminent personalities from diversified back- grounds further enhanced its scope. The role and impact of music in job related work environment has been indicated by various authors and researchers. Music is often treated as a catalytic element for stress management, happiness and helps in performance improvement of employees in the organization.
