The participants were manufacturing workers. The data were analyzed using t-test, one-way analysis of variance, and Scheffé's test to identify differences among variables. Pearson's correlation coefficient and stepwise multiple regression were used to identify variables that affected health-related quality of life.@*RESULTS@#The findings revealed that occupational stress and quality of sleep were statistically significant variables of the physical component score with an explanatory power of 42.2%. Occupational stress, depression, and religion were statistically significant variables of the mental component score with an explanatory power of 43.3%.@*CONCLUSION@#Continuous monitoring and appropriate intervention for occupational stress, quality of sleep, and depression are needed to improve manufacturing workers' health-related quality of life.
