NTRODUCT ONStress has been called the invisible. It is a disease that ma affect
ou! our organization! and an of the "eo"le in it! so ou cannot afford to
ignore it.
EVOLUATION OF STRESS:#he $arden of %den began as a tranquil stress environment. &o'ever
'hen (dam 'as given the tantalizing chance to eat the forbidden fruit! he
'as trust into man)ind*s first stressful situation. (dam 'as offered a choice
and! as 'e )no'! decision+ma)ing is the breeding ground for conflict!frustration and distress.
DEFINITION:Stressin individual is defined as any interference that disturbsa persons healthy mental and physical well being. It occurs whenthe body is required to perform beyond its normal range ofcapabilities.

Behr and Newman define job stress as a condition arisingfrom the interaction of people and their jobs and characterized bychanges within people that force them to deviate from their normalfunctioning.
Stress is a dynamic condition, which an individual isconfronted with an opportunity, constraint or demand related towhat he or she desires and for which the outcome is perceived to beboth uncertain and important. Stress is associated with constraintsand demands. The former prevent you from doing what you desire,the latter refers to the loss of something desired.
Stress is highest for those individuals who perceive that they areuncertain as to whether they will win or lose and lowest for thoseindividuals who think that winning or losing is certainty.
Canadian physician Hans Selye (1907-1982) in his book thestress of life 1956 popularized the idea of stress. According to Selye,the General Adaptation Syndrome consists of three phases.
Ce level begins to decline irreversibly. The organism collapses .

environment. Second! habits and strategies for co"ing 'ith stress are formed
in this stage 'hich is often not useful in co"ing 'ith later challenges.
FUEL SHORTAGE STAGE:-#his stage can be identified as com"osed of the value feelings of loss!
fatigue and confusion arising from the individual*s overdra's on reverses of
ada"tation energ. Other sm"toms are dissatisfaction! inefficienc! andfatigue and slee" disturbances leading to esca"e activate such as increased

'echnological uncertainties:Ae' innovations can ma)e an em"loee*s s)ills and e-"eriences

is a third t"e of environmental factor that can cause stress. Com"uters!
