This study was conducted to examine the relationship between demographic constructs of the public sector employees, their job satisfaction and job stress with data obtained from 113 employees from the Chief Minister's Department at Seri Negeri Ayer Keroh, Melaka. The study found out that all demographic construct were insignificantly correlated to the job satisfaction except for the average rewards with age (P < 0.006) where there is a high significant correlation between them. It means that employees are already satisfied with their job, except for the employees pay and reward where majority of the respondents who are below 35 years old are not satisfied with the employees pay and rewards that they received before. The correlation of the variables between job satisfaction and job stress also found out that there are no significant correlations at all. From here it shows that employees are satisfied with their job where their stress is low and the level of their job stress also shows that in the low level. From here too we can conclude that high job satisfaction will lead to low job stress.
