Abstract

It has been well-known that employees who experience positive emotion at work demonstrate better work performance. This individual performance will lead to the organizational productivity. Therefore, it is important for any organization to ensure the employee’s psychological well-being (PWB) by promoting and/or eliminating factors that may affect it. The purpose of this study is to investigate the contribution of determinants such as work-life balance (WLB) and work pressure (WP) in predicting the level of employee’s PWB. This study adopted a quantitative method in which data was collected from a sample of 250 employees from various business sectors and demographic backgrounds. Ryff’s Scales of Psychological Well-Being, Work-Life Balance Checklist developed by Daniels and MacCarraher, and Tilburg Work Pressure Questionnaire were used to measure PWB, WLB, and WP respectively. The results show that both WLB and WP contribute a significant impact on PWB (F= 32.035, p< 0.05). Further findings also show that PWB is dominantly and significantly affected by WLB (R2= 0.185, F= 56.142, p< 0.05). On the other hand, WP was not a significant contributor toward PWB among the employees (F= 0.506, p> 0.05).
