The survey method was used as a method of data collection. The population of the study was employed nurses in Nishter hospital, Combined Military, Children Complex Hospital, City Hospital Multan, Buch International Hospital Multan.

Occupational stress has a negative impact on clinical performance among nurses. Emotional intelligence significantly mediates the relationship between occupational stress and clinical performance among nurses.
