摘要：The present study explores the influence of workaholism on consumer food waste using an extended version of the theory of planned behaviour and the BWAS workaholism scale. The study is quantitative in nature and data collection was done through a web-based survey filled in by 194 Romanian employees recruited through convenience sampling. Data analysis was performed using IBM SPSS and the results showed that the influence of workaholism on consumer food waste is multifaceted. Workaholism has no influence on the predictors of intention to reduce food waste such as food waste attitudes, perceived behavioural control, with the exception of subjective norms, which are predicted by only one facet of workaholism (i.e., problems). However, workaholism has a small influence on food waste behaviours (e.g., food reusing, food storage etc.) and particularly on the estimated amount of food wasted. The two most salient facets of workaholism were conflict and problems and the analysis revealed that problematic workaholics (high conflict, high problems) tend to waste more food than functional workaholics (high conflict, low problems). Overall, the study proves the need to further explore the connections between different types of workaholism and consumer food waste
