Abstract
Law enforcement occupations have traditionally been dominated by males. With more and more females entering the workforce across the world and emphasis being placed on equal opportunity hiring, there has been a vast increase in the number of women police personnel worldwide. Obviously, the females will be no less susceptible to the everyday occupational stresses than their male counterparts. The organizational culture of police department imposes different treatment with officers of different ranks. In order to assess the proneness of role stress among police personnel as per their sex and rank, this study was carried out on a sample of police population. The study indicated that stress and sex were associated.
