Job stress in the modern workplace: A study on the banking sector in Patna

Author(s):

Gautam Kumar

Abstract:

Stress is not always dreadful, as some people are derived to work much better with certain amount of stress as it provides them motivation, creativity and mild feeling of euphoria but the concern lies where too much stress or repeated stress can have negative physical, mental and emotional consequences on a person’s mind and body. Striving to achieve a mark or a goal set is often in the mind of many but by putting health at stake would mean deriving yourself backwards to accomplish that target as excessive stress can interfere with the productivity and impact the physical and emotional health. 
The main goal of this study is to find the level of regularity of the job stresses for business people examined and trace out the upsetting factor that affects most individuals. The paper also puts light onto the areas studied where changes can be made by the workers, managers, and the Human Resources (HR) department so as to lower the stress factors by making a change. The focus was on the corporate sector in India to understand how certain workplace stress factors (Like long work hours, short breaks, heavy workloads, unfair work distribution, boredom, tight deadlines, underused skills, and workplace relationships) affect the mental and emotional health of Banking employees.
