Abstract: This study highlights the impact of workplace empowerment (WPEM) on employee involvement (EI) with an emphasis on quality of work life (QOWL) acting as a mediator to the research. This paper has adopted a quantitative approach and used a structured questionnaire to collect data from the managerial level employees, executives, and other staffs working in the energy sector of twin cities, Bhubaneswar and Cuttack, in Odisha. The findings suggest that by providing favourable and empowering workplace conditions along with higher QOWL can substantially enhance EI levels. A triadic link was affirmed that lays novel insights on organisational empowerment through the mediator QOWL in place. A better QOWL enhances the morale of the existing employees to perform their jobs more effectively, promotes the achievement of organisational strategies and alleviating the decision-making process, thereby adding novelty to the study.
