The result show that emotional exhaustion level among medical staff is very low. In addition, work-family conflict level also shows very low level. From regression analysis, we conclude that perceived workload has a positive relationship with the emotional exhaustion. Further, the work-family conflict also indicate a positive direction toward an emotional exhaustion. Indeed, the work-family conflict also play a significant role as moderating variabel between perceived workload and emotional exhaustion. This finding has a theoritical and practical contribution in the sense that the phenomena of emotional exhaustion among woman medical staffs in hospital could also be explained by COR theory.
