The main objective of this research was to determine the level of different aspects of job satisfaction among white-collar workers and to examine how dimensions of psychological climate (psychological safety and psychological meaningfulness) affect job satisfaction. The author also searched for determinants of quality of life. The data for this study were collected from 207 Polish employees. The participants were recruited from public administration offices. The research has shown that: 1) white-collar workers are most satisfied with the stability of employment and interactions with coworkers, and the least satisfied with remuneration, 2) psychological climate has a significant influence on job satisfaction, 3) job satisfaction is a significant predictor of the sense of life quality among the respondents.
