The research paper attempts to explore the impact of certain group factors like task interdependence, task significance, task variety, collective efficacy, work group climate, group cohesiveness etc. as the significant predictors of individual's worklife satisfaction. A purposive sampling technique has been adopted for the selection of 475 workers from four different leather units engaged in different types of activities in Kolkata. A structured questionnaire has been used amongst respondents and the collected data have been analysed with multiple regression analysis technique to assess the extent of variance in life satisfaction. The final results of the analysis are clearly indicative about the dimensions of group factors identified as significant predictors of life-satisfaction in the organizations studied through the research paper. The research findings may have multiple implications in terms of further research possibilities on job-design, group dynamics and well being of the employees, on future managerial decision of designing specific measures that can enhance potency and efficacy of the group, on variance of individual well being etc.
