Lecturers’ increased workload is an issue that has not been widely discussed even though it has emotionally affected the lecturers and eventually influences their work productivity. Therefore, this study is conducted to identify the factors that lead to poor work performance among 113 language lecturers in three Malaysian public universities through a random sampling Likert scale survey. From literature review, it has been found that there is significant positive relationship between all variables (heavy and increased workload, grade promotion, additional working hours and large group of students per lecturer in a classroom) and lecturers’ work performance.
