While research on presenteeism has gained momentum internationally, it remains limited within the Malaysian context particularly among millennial employees. This study seeks to address this gap by examining the influence of workload, supervisor support, and coworker support on presenteeism among Malaysian millennials. According to the Department of Statistics Malaysia (DOSM), as of the first quarter of 2020, the total employed population in Malaysia stood at 15.24 million, with millennials (aged 25 to 40) recorded for approximately 9.4 million in 2019. Employing a cross-sectional design, this study collected data from 123 millennial employees in Malaysia through purposive and snowball sampling methods. Respondents completed an online self-administered questionnaire, and the data were analysed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) Version 25. The findings revealed that among the variables studied, only workload significantly predicted presenteeism. These results offer important insights into the work-related factors contributing to presenteeism and provide a more contextually relevant understanding applicable to the Malaysian workforce.
