AFLW sides are more likely to finish down the bottom of the ladder when their players rate their workplace culture low, the players' association says.

Data collected from the union around the middle of the season suggests a strong correlation between workplace culture and on-field performance.

"If we look at AFLW, what we're seeing is there is a bit of a widening gap between the best of our workplace culture data and that which is more at the bottom," AFL Players Association chief executive James Gallagher told ABC Sport.

"We're seeing some of the highest scores ever reported at the top end, so that's fantastic.
