Introduction

1.1 Background of the Study

Occupation or work plays an important role in individual’s social lives, providing the support of a regular income, opportunities and personal growth, social identity and self – esteem (Filha, Maria, and Guilam, 2013).

Given the many benefits of occupation to an individual, one’s occupation can pose a negative threat to human life in the form of stress. No doubt Kortum (2014) posited that, the health impact of stress at work negatively affects workers and their communities with a clear financial impact on business and beyond.

He further stated that a healthy workplace is one in which workers and managers collaborate to use a continual improvement process to protect and promote the health, safety and wellbeing of all workers and the sustainability of the workplace.

Nevertheless, given the value of an occupation in this era, the amount of time spent at work and the current changes that are affecting the nature of work; it is not surprising that stress appears to be on the increase.

Stress has been regarded as an occupational hazard long time ago, since the mid – 1950’s. In fact, occupational stress has been mentioned as a major health problem (Jones, 2012).

According to Jones (2012), stress is an occupational hazard for the modern day employee as a result of the stimulation of an individual’s physical and psychological states based on demands and expectations.

Lunenburg and Ornstein (2011) stated that; it is the effect of opportunities involving uncertainties as well as important outcomes.

Stress is a state produced by a change in the environment that is perceived as challenging, threatening or damaging to a person’s dynamic balance or equilibrium.

It creates tension in the individual as he/she is unable to meet the demands of the new situation (Smeltzer, Bare, Hinkle and Cheever, 2014).

Furthermore, Radhakrishnan and Jins (2012) referred to stress as a sum of physical, mental, emotional strains or tensions on a person or feelings of stress which result from people interacting with the environment they live in, that are alleged as hurting and/or beyond their adaptive aptitude and having threats to human wellbeing.

Stress is not altogether that bad as it is necessary in the day to day lives of individuals. On this note, Kerrien, Pougnet, Garlantezec, Pougnet, LeGaludec, Lodde and Dewitte (2015) stated that stress can either be positive friendly stress (Eustress) or negative harmful stress (Distress).

Here, what someone perceives as a threat or a danger, someone else can perceive it as a challenge or motivation. However, stress is often termed as the twentieth century syndrome borne out of high competition and its subsequent complexities.

It is a state of affair involving demand on physical or mental energy which can disturb the normal physiological and psychological functioning of an individual (Indoo and Ajeya, 2012). Stress up to a certain point will improve people’s performance and quality of life.
