Based on the conservation of resources theory, this study assesses the association between selected demographic factors (relationship status, years of work experience) and psycho-social factors (self-rated health, burnout, loneliness, and sense of coherence), and the subjective well-being of social workers. The data were collected through structured questionnaires ( n = 394). The findings suggest that relationship status, self-rated health, burnout, loneliness, and sense of coherence significantly predicted subjective well-being among social workers. It may be concluded that social workers who have a strong arsenal of demographic and psycho-social resources will experience fewer negative psychological outcomes and report higher levels of subjective well-being
