The study adopted descriptive survey design of correlation type. A sample of three hundred teachers were selected for the study using simple random sampling. Data were collected using four scale instruments. Three research questions were raised. Data collected were analyzed at 0.05 level of significance using Pearson’s produce moment correlation and multiple regression. The findings revealed that there was a significant positive relationship between the independent variables and the dependent variable. From the regression analysis, it was discovered that stress, income and job satisfaction jointly predicted psychological well-being. This suggests that the three factors combined accounted for variance in the prediction of psychological well-being. More so, the most potent factors were stress (P = .249; t= 5.165;/k0.05) and job satisfaction (P = .175; t= 3.171;/?<0.05). Based on this, it was revealed that reduced job stress and job satisfaction influence teacher’s psychological well-being. This study therefore concludes that moderate job stress and being happy on the job motivates higher job productivity through enhanced psychological well-being among teachers.

    This study investigated influence of work- family conflict, organisational leadership, and mentoring on employee performance and job satisfaction among bank workers in Nigeria. It adopted a descriptive research design that utilizes correlational method. The study used simple random sampling technique in selecting the participants. Six banks were randomly selected in South-western Nigeria, with the sample of 300 bank workers. Instruments used were Pradhan and Jena Employee Performance Scale (EPS), α = 0.91; Macdonald and MacIntyre Generic Job Satisfaction Scale, α= 0.77; Haslam, Filus, Morawska, Sanders & Fletcher Work-Family Conflict Scale (WAFCS), α = 0.91; Bass and Avolio Multifactor leadership Questionnaire, α = 0.80; Berk, Berg, Mortimer, Moss & Yeo Mentoring Effectiveness Scale, α = 0.95. There were six hypotheses, tested with Pearson Product Moment Correlation (PPMC) and two-stage approach to Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) at P<.05. It was found that: mentoring (r = 0.40, p < 0.05), organisational leadership (r = 0.29, p < 0.05) and work-family conflict (r = 0.37, p < 0.05) significantly correlated with employee performance. Mentoring (r = 0.54, p < 0.05), organisational leadership (r = 0.55, p < 0.05) and work-family conflict (r = 0.29. p < 0.05) significantly correlated to job satisfaction. Work-family conflict, organisational leadership and mentoring jointly explained 24.3?o of the variance in employee performance. Work-family conflict, organisational leadership and mentoring jointly explained 39.8% of the variance in job satisfaction. Work-famiiy conflict (β = 0.281, p < 0.05) and mentoring (β = 0.259, p < 0.05) significantly predicted employee performance, organisational leadership (β = 0.099, p > 0.05) did not significantly predict employee performance. Mentoring (β = 0.334, p < 0.05), organisational leadership (β = 0.354, p < 0.05) significantly predicted job satisfaction. Therefore, banks need to develop strategies that would enable employees enjoy better work-life balance. They should adopt a system which ensures that tellers take at least one-hour break in turns in the course of the day
