    The present study examined the relationship between three variables, namely, job satisfaction, family satisfaction and self-esteem, among working men and women in Lebanon. 120 participants divided almost equally between the two genders filled out the questionnaires and were above the age of 25. They have agreed to take part in a survey consisting of a demographics section and three scales: The Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, The Job Satisfaction Scale, and the Family Satisfaction scale. For the first hypothesis, an independent samples t-test was conducted to compare whether job satisfaction levels differed by gender and the results indicated that gender did play a role and that women in Lebanon were more satisfied in their jobs than men. A second hypothesis tested whether there will be a higher positive correlation between the scores of the job satisfaction scale and the scores of the family satisfaction scale among women than men in Lebanon. The results showed that there was no significant correlation between job satisfaction and family satisfaction whether among men or among women in Lebanon. A third hypothesis tested whether there will be a positive correlation between the scores of the self-esteem scale and the scores of the job satisfaction scale among men in Lebanon but no significant correlation was established. The last hypothesis tested whether there will be a higher positive correlation between the scores of the family satisfaction scale and the scores of the self-esteem scale among women than men in Lebanon by which the results showed a strong significant positive correlation between family satisfaction and self-esteem among both women and men in Lebanon.
