Workaholism is employee's unnecessary deep immersion into his/her work to the extent that it affects his/her health. Present day work environment and competition foster such traits that propel an employee to opt for such work style. Current study is about the predictive relationship of workaholism with work-family conflict and mental well-being of employees. Participants for present study are from different public and private sector organizations. The study meets its objectives in two phases; phase I is tryout and phase II is main study. WorkBat, Work and Family Conflict Scale, and Warwick Edinburgh Mental Well Being Scale along demographic sheet and consent form are used for data collection. Besides determining psychometric properties of scales, t-test, correlation coefficient, and regression analysis are run. Findings of the study reveal significant positive relationship between workaholim and work-family conflict and significant negative correlation between workaholism and mental well-being. Significant differences emerge in study variables with reference to public and private sector, gender, and marital status. Moreover workaholism significantly predicts work family-conflict and mental well-being. Study highlights the significant predictive relationship of workaholic trait that contributes towards raised work-family conflict and poor mental well-being.
