Abstract
Work plays a central role in the
lives of many people, and thus
the impact of occupational stress
is an important issue for both
individual employees and the organizations
in which they work.
Stress experienced at work can
have adverse outcomes for the
well-being of individual employees
and organization as a whole.
The present study aims to investigate
the causes of role stress
among doctors working in government
hospitals in Kashmir
and to understand the influence
of a personality construct “Locus
of Control” on Role Stress.
Findings of the study revealed
that doctors with external locus
of control and high internal locus
of control are the serious
sufferers of organizational role
stress.
