There is two hundred of administrative staff in UUM, whom working in the Malaysian public university were participated in this study.

Then, job demand is significantly and positively related to the work-family conflict and the hypothesis is supported. Next, the role ambiguity is positively related to the workfamily conflict, but not significant and the hypothesis is not supported. Besides that, the social support as a moderator between the job involvements, job demand and role ambiguity towards the work-family conflict is supported and significantly related. The practical implications of the finding have been discussed.
