Abstract


There is a growing awareness of how stress adversely affects organization efficiency. The implementation of stress management programs to counteract this problem has been slow. This study examined such programs in companies who claimed that they were active and successful in stress management for their employees. The successful feature of these organizations is presented. Stress has become significant due to dynamic social factor and changing needs of life styles. Stress is man’s adaptive reaction to an outward situation which would lead to physical, mental and behavioral changes. Even though stress kills brain cells, not all stresses are destructive in nature. Appropriate amount of stress can actually trigger passion for work, tap latent abilities and even ignite in spirations. The study throws light on the wide spread silent problem, increase divorce rates, and other harassments.
