Working in organisations not only provides individuals with life-sustaining income but
also exerts its own pressures on them. This can ultimately have negative consequences both for
achieving the goals of the organisational and meeting the needs of the individuals working in
them. Thus, the work environment is a source of social and psychological stress, which has
harmful effects on the well-being of the employees. Stress in general and occupational stress in
particular is universal and frequently disabling human phenomenon. Stress arising at work has
detrimental effect on the behaviour of people, which ultimately results in personal and
organisational inefficiency. Occupational stress can be described as a condition where
occupation-related factors interact with the worker to change (disrupt enhance) his or her
psychological or physiological condition, so that the person’s mind and/or body is forced to
deviate from its normal way of functioning
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
1. Davis and Newstrom (1985): Stress is a condition of strain on one’s emotion’s thought
processes, and Physical condition. When it is excessive, it can threaten one’s ability to
cope with the environment, ‘stress’ is the general term applied to the pressures people
feel in life. As a result of these pressures, employees develop various symptoms of stress
that can harm their job performance. People who are stressed may become nervous and
develop chronic worry. They are easily provoked to anger and are unable to relax. They
may be uncooperative or use alcohol or drugs excessively. These conditions occur from
other causes also, but they are common symptoms of stress.
2. Mathew (1993): Stress has a variety of meaning to people in the workplace. To the
production manager in a chemical plant, it may be the tension of missing the shipping
date of a large order for a major customer. To the business executive, it may be
frustration associated with the inability to acquire sufficient short-term loans from banks
to cover the operating needs, and so on.
In the words of Szilagyi and Wallace, stress is an internal experience that creates a
psychological or physiological imbalance within an individual and results from factors in
the external environment, the organisation or the individual.
3. D’Souza (1993): Today’s leaders not only live and work at a faster pace but also must
also deal with uncertainty and change. They need effective methods for coping with the
kind of stress that affects anyone in leadership positions. People popularly identify

International Journal of Scientific Research and Review ISSN NO: 2279-543X

managing directors or chief executive officers as those most susceptible to stress and
disease. However, people at all levels of management find themselves exposed to
comparable pressures.
4. Robbins (2005): Most of us are aware that employee stress is an increasing problem in
organisations. Friends tells us they’re stressed out from greater workloads and having to
work longer hours because of downsizing at their company. Parents talk about the lack of
job stability in today’s world and reminisce about a time when a job with a large
company implied lifetime security. We read surveys in which employees complain
about the stress created in trying to balance work and family responsibilities. In this
section, we’ll look at the causes and consequences of stress, and then consider what
individuals and organisations can do to reduce it.
5. Jha (1988) in his study on ‘Jobs Stress and Employee Strain in India Executives’ explains
the pattern of stress and strain in three work groups, namely production, personnel and
data-processing divisions in an organisation. Results indicated that job future ambiguity
had negative effect on job satisfaction in all the three groups. The patter of stress in the
three groups was different among different levels of management. Among different levels
of managers, the diddle level managers had more role ambiguity than others did.
6. Reddy and Ramamurthi (1991) in their study on ‘The Relation between Stress Experience
on the Job-Age, Personality and General ability’ analysed the influence of age,
personality and general ability of the individual in the perception of stress. It was found
that only age influenced the perception of stress. There was only very limited
contribution of personality and general ability of the individual to the intensity of stress
experience of the individual.
7. Singh and Sehgal (1995) in their study on ‘Men and Women in Transition: Patterns of
Stress, Strain and Social Relations’ highlight the patterns of stress and strain among men
and women as well as single- and dual-career couples. They found that male and female
managers did not differ significantly on various stress dimensions. Difference in gender
was however found in strains. Women were characterised by anxiety, whereas men
exhibited more symptoms of somatic problems comparing the single and dual couples. It
was found that male managers with working spouses experienced higher workload than
managers whose spouses were not working. In strains also single career male managers

had less irritability that dual career male managers, and overall single career male
managers had better psychological well-being than others. Working women managers
had better physical well-being that their working husband did but had poorer
psychological well-being.
8. Shah (2003) in his study on ‘Role Stress in the Indian Industry: A Study of Banking
Organisations’ describes adequate explanation of stress, and its nature, dimensions,
causes, manifestations and coping up strategies. It was observed that most of the
employees experience medium to high level of stress at work. Role stagnation,
inadequacy of role authority and role erosion is comparatively high-rated dimensions of
job stress. The study further reveals that employees belonging to the clerical cadre
relatively experience more stress on most of the dimensions.
9. Berhem et al (2004) in their study on ‘A New Model for Work Stress Patterns’ describe
that the role of ambiguity is the main source of work stress and self-knowledge as the
main coping strategy to overcome work stress. Work stress is believed to be one of the
most important factors affecting productivity.
10. Kang (2005) in his study on ‘Stressors among Medical Representatives: An Empirical
investigations’ tries to investigate the various stressors related with the job of a medical
representative. A sample of 140 medical representatives was taken for the purpose of the
present study. The results showed interference of job in personal life, unsupportive
colleagues, work load and continuous pressure for improved performance have been
found to be causing stress among the medical representatives.
11. Anitha Devi (2006-2007) in her study on ‘Occupational Stress: A comparative Study of
Worker in different Occupations” describes identifying the degree of life stress and role
stress experienced by professional women. It also studies the effect of life stress and role
stress on various demographic variables like age, experience and income. For the purpose
of study, 180 women professionals (six different occupations) were chose. It was found
that science and technology professionals and doctors experienced significantly greater
life stress and role stress.
12. Dhanalakhsmi (2008) in her study on ‘Actors Predicting Stress of Employees in a Public
Transport Corporation’ measures the level of stress of the transport corporation
employees and also studies the factors that could predict stress. It is found that the

Volume 8, Issue 4, 2019 Page No: 345
