<![CDATA[In this day and age, a working mother with a striving career is not an abnormality, instead it is seen as a common thing. Even so, a mother is still expected to fulfill both roles, whether in the family, and in the workplace. If the individual fails to fulfill their role in either area, work-family conflict will arise. One of the antecedents of work-family conflict is workaholism. Workaholism is an uncontrollable force within the self to keep working, which eventually will cause disadvantages to the self. There is, other kind of workaholism, that is enthusiastic workaholic, that describes those who are highly enforced to work, highly involved in their works, and highly enjoys working. The aim of this research is to deduce the correlation between workaholism and work-family conflict on working mothers with kids below the age of 18. This research is a quantitative study, with 246 research respondents and using the help of Multidimensional Workaholism Scale dan Work-Family Conflict Scale. The result of Kendall’s Tau-B hypothesis measure showed a positive and significant relationship between workaholism and work-family conflict on working mothers with kids below the age of 18 with the correlation coefficient of r = 0,428 p =0,000 (p<0,05). Hence, the higher workaholism is, the higher work-family conflict is, vice versa. Workaholism effectively contributed 18,31 to work-family conflict, which implies that workaholism predicts work-family conflict by 18,31%, in which the remaining value is predicted by other factors]]>
