Past studies have found that among the stress factors that contribute to the prevalence of deviant workplace behavior are workload and job stress. Yet, very limited studies have focused on non-job-related factors as stress factors that contribute to deviant workplace behavior. This paper presents a model on deviant workplace behavior with workload and job stress as job-related factors together with family-to-work conflict as a non-job related factor that contribute to this behavior. The model was developed based on the general strain theory as well as previous research-based literature. This model may perhaps improve the understanding of deviant workplace behavior by expanding the literature on this behavior deviance with the inclusion of family-work interface factor as a stressor.
