Abstract:
Female involvement in Malaysian workforce, especially in high positions, is still low
despite their increasing number in the higher institutions of learning. Possibly, there
exist some factors that hinder them from gaining employment or job promotion
easily. Factors such as workload and job stress have been known to slow down their
progress at work or hinder them to perform better in their jobs. These issues have
motivated this study to be undertaken with the objective of investigating the
relationship between factors such as personality, motivation, organizational climate
and personal engagement that influence job performance among female workforce in
Malaysia. This study also aimed at determining the role of time management as a
moderator on the relationship between those factors and work performance among
female employees in Malaysia.
