Abstract: The study of workaholism was reviewed in this article. Workaholism involves difficult disengaging from work, a strong drive to work, intense enjoyment of work, and additional devotement much time and energy to work. The paradigms employed to explain workholism include addiction model, reinforcement theory, trait-based paradigm, and, more recently, family-systems model. The importance of measurement validation has been one that has plagued the early development of workaholism research. Currently, there are three validated measures of workaholism: Work Addiction Risk Test, Workholism Battery and Workholic Behavior Scale. Some of researches have focused on dealing with antecedents of workholism, such as personality, demographic variables and organizational factors, and the consequences of workaholism include health and relationship. The workaholism research arena is still in its infancy, thus, there is ample opportunity to develop the concept and theoretically integrated research programmes, also the measurement and sampling research in the future
