What Is the Difference Between Job Efficiency and Job Quality? Which Is Better?
Which is more important, and WHY? Does job quality affect everything, or, IS IT ONLY APPLICABLE TO INDUSTRIAL BUILDINGS, AND NOT SOMETHING LIKE A HOTEL?

This is very confusing, and is absolutely not, as far as I can see, explained anywhere in the game.

Thank you for all of your help, Folks, because it has made a big difference in how I play the game.

Job efficiency is the output/effect produced by the location

Job quality is how the workers feel about being at the job and determines how much it depletes their other happiness needs (and when they aren't happy they leave work to go fill those needs)

Locations don't produce anything unless a worker is active, job quality will help keep them on the job longer, efficiency is how well they produce whatever effect/product the building makes
JFC...why is none of this critically-important information fully-explained ANYWHERE?!?!?!?!? in the game?!?!?

I have asked two very important questions in the past day, this being the second, that make a big difference in what to do in the game, and, it is only thanks to you people that these game-mechanics are explained. That is a problem that the development-team needs to address.

It's all in the game if you look for it. Every building has a tab that tells you what the efficiency does for that building specifically.

As for happiness, it's kinda obvious as soon as you just watch some people and what they do. The tutorial even tells you to watch people, you can read each persons thoughts and see what they are doing and why.

As soon as you watch people, unhappy people leave to go satisfy their needs more often and don't stay at work as long.

There's numerous mouse overs for most things as well.
