Abstract

Occupational stress is known as stress at work. It occurs when there is discrepancy between the demands of the work and that of individuals. It is a serious work hazard which has the power to bring crisis on teachers. There may be various reasons for occupational stress like personality, general outlook on life, Problem solving abilities, and social and family support system, etc. Hence the present study tries to find out the relationship between occupational stress and family environment of teachers. For this study the 800 teachers working at primary, secondary schools, junior and senior colleges of Nagpur city were taken as sample. The relationship between occupational stress and family environment was derived using occupational stress index and family environment scale. The data were analyzed using coefficient of correlation “r”, to ascertain the relationship between them. The result reveals that there is no significant relationship between the occupational stress and family environment of college and school level teachers. Key words: occupation, stress, family
