The purpose of this study is to provide a relevant conceptual model of the mechanism of workload distribution among auditors in BPK RI in relation to gender. The exploratory research was conducted to achieve its research objectives with six respondents are chosen for this study. Thematic analysis with coding technique, document analysis, and observation are used to collect and analyze the data. The result shows that there is no regulation which explains explicitly in detail about the working mechanism of the auditor when carrying out the auditing task. Also, the researcher did not find an explanation of how the procedure for distributing workload to the auditor after the audit team was determined. It means that the mechanism of workload distribution among auditors implements in the field with the non-technical guideline. Another finding shows that BPK RI does not differentiate treatment of auditors based on gender. Male and female employees have the same rights and obligations as auditors. However, in practice in the field, there are still differences in treatment between male and female auditors, especially related to the distribution of workload when conducting the audit tasks. However, the difference in treatment does not affect the amount of compensation they receive and does not affect their career development opportunities. Finally, the researcher offers a conceptual model to answer the objective of this research.

Performance is the main indicator for the company to measure productivity. Only productive employees will be retained by the company. Therefore competition in the professional world forces employees to work hard. They often neglect their Psychological Well-Being (PWB), whereas PWB is proved to correlate with work performance and organization’s effectiveness (Wright and Cropanzo in Robertson and Cooper, 2009). PWB is when a person shows that he is healthy, well, functions optimally and succeed despite life’s existential challenges (Ryff and Keyes, 1995). Ryff (1995) mentioned several factors that affect PWB, including age, gender, and culture. This study aims to obtain an overview of PWB of employees working in Java, Indonesia. A quantitative approach is done by distributing the PWB Scale to 544 employees in six provinces. The result shows that the PWB is above average (mean= 3.49). According to gender, there is a significant difference between the PWB of male and female employees (p<0.05). Also, employees who are in the range of 26-30 years old show better PWB (mean = 3.56) than older employees. We concluded that the PWB of employees in Java Island, Indonesia, is high. Male employees show better PWB than female (mean = 3.50). It indicates that male employees perceive that the opportunity to be more well-being are given more than female in their work place. Furthermore, PWB increases until when employees are 30 years and decreases as they grow older.  It indicates that the younger ones perceive more opportunity to be well-being than older employees.
