This is a pioneering study on the relationship between quality of work life and the employee&rsquo:s perception of their contribution to organizational performance. It unveils the importance of subjective and behavioral components of quality of work life and their influence on the formation of the collaborator&rsquo:s individual desire to contribute to strengthening the organization&rsquo:s productivity. The results obtained indicate that for workers: feeling their supervisors&rsquo: support through listening to their concerns and by sensing they take them on board: being integrated in a good work environment: and feeling respected both as professionals and as people: positively influence their feeling of contributing to organizational performance. The results are particularly relevant given the increased weight of services in the labor market, together with intensified automation and digitalization of collaborators&rsquo: functions. The findings also contribute to the ongoing debate about the need for more work on the subjective and behavioral components of so-called smart and learning organizations, rather than focusing exclusively on remuneration as the factor stimulating organizational productivity based on the collaborator&rsquo:s contribution.
