NATIONAL CONFERENCE ON EMERGING TRENDS IN BUSINESS: Social and Legal issues in India

We are living in the challenging and competitive world. In everyday life we come across many challenging situations. Stress is one of the most challenging situations. Stress is a common feature in our daily lives, especially when the pace of development increases. Work is a common term which is applied for all sorts of occupation. It is a basic condition for most people and is an important component of the atmosphere for human survival. It is also a major element for the development of the individual as well as the economy of the nation. Many adults spend half of their lives in work related activities. It is natural to experience work related stress on tension or strain in the body or the mind. A famous phrase “stress collapses everything” has a prominent place in the minds of millions. It is a silent killer in the modern age. The work of a teacher is a physically and mentally challenging. A teacher needs to use a lot of energy in his daily chores in the classroom coupled with his personal and family commitments. This trend which is a routine for a teacher forwards a lot of stress to the teacher. Like before work is not seen as the root of infinite satisfaction and fulfillment, but rather a source of stress, discontentment and humiliation. It is because of the dramatic changes that have taken place in society over the last decade or two that work and life stress have became more immediate focal points of interest. This is attempt to study occupational stress among teachers of private and government schools.
