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.
