Abstract
The study finds out the impact of organisational stressors on soldiers’ occupational stress. Structured instrument was used to collect first hand data from 165 combat soldiers of the Indian Army. The results of the study indicate moderately severe stress in the Indian Army. Infact, only two organisational stressors, i.e. ‘workload and job pressure’ and ‘indifferent organisational attitude’ were found to have significant impact (p<0.05) on occupational stress among Army personnel. Thus, the study also proposes strategies for reducing stress level in the Indian Army and presents future research perspectives.
