摘要：The paper deals with well-being of employees who invest heavier in work. The main aim of the present study was to examine relationship between workaholism and work enjoyment as part of the work engagement. Paper focuses on workaholics and their emotional experience in performing work (affective component of well-being). The unique method based on time diary, including data on happiness, was used. Results suggest that non-workaholics feel happier when performing paid work than workaholics. Gender and education are significant background predictors influencing heavy time investment, while parenthood and place of living do not correlate with time workaholism. Men-workaholics work longer than women-workaholics, with no significant difference in happiness. Women-workaholics feel happier when performing unpaid household work, but men-workaholics enjoy more time with children. Education in relation to income, time investment and happiness indicate that workaholism in Slovakia exists in a forced form in order to achieve the required income and forced heavy time investment must undertake deeper analysis.
