Stress
•“Stress is not necessarily something bad – it all depends on how you take it. The stress of exhilarating, creative successful work is beneficial, while that of failure, humiliation or infection is detrimental”.
- Hans Selye (1956)
• “Stress seen in individuals, is defined as, any interference that disturbs a person's healthy mental and physical well being. It occurs when the body is required to perform beyond its normal range of capabilities. Beneficial stress can help drive a few of us to historic successes, while harmful stress can drive us to despair. A force as potent as this has to handled with respect”.
-Shreekumar Menon (November 2010)

CONCLUSION• Given the Indian & international scenario of competitive market,
over population and scarcity of good jobs, runs on the theory of ―Survival of the Fittest‖, no profession is stress free. The degree and depth may vary from one another. Both employer and employee must understand that work should be valued and not excessive. Work should not compromise on health and family life; rather offer happiness, peace of mind, certainty, variety and flexibility. As a general rule, actions to reduce job stress should be given top priority in the process of organizational change to improve working conditions and to avert the situation of brain drain. But even the most conscientious efforts to improve working conditions are unlikely to eliminate stress completely for all workers.
