Work stress is a critical phenomenon in the development of human capital. Work stress that is managed regularly will be able to increase family well-being. Although this issue has been widely studied, the role of work stress as an important predictor variable for family well-being is often neglected in the literature of work stress management in organizations. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relationship between work stress and family well-being. A survey method was used to collect 160 data from employees in a public agency, Malaysia. Findings using SmartPLS software produced three main findings. First, role ambiguity has a significant relationship with family well-being. Second, role conflict has a significant relationship with family well-being. Third, role burden has a significant relationship with family well-being. This situation shows that the ability of employees to handle work stress prudently will help them balance work and family matters in the organization studied. Next, this study also presents the discussion, implications and conclusions of the study. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
