Role of Positive Personal Attributes as a Moderator of the Occupational Stress Health Relationship

Abstract

The role and responsibilities of supervisors have attained new definitions and wider perspectives due to the deep impact of technological changes, modernization and globalization all over the world. In this era, supervisors who have attempted to translate their capabilities and resources to actual accomplishment have entered the world of work force rapidly. Despite the redefinition of their roles, supervisory level employees in India are besieged by a number of problems due to demands and responsibilities at workplace, which at times, may lead to their being overburdened. Thereby, when exposed to a combination of stresses caused due to their responsibilities along with those experienced at workplace, they are likely to experience a negative effect on their physical and psychological well-being resulting in ill-health. newline
