    WORK ENVIRONMENT SETTING VARIABLES INFLUENCING OCCUPATIONAL STRESS AND WORK EFFICIENCY AMONG POLICE PERSONNEL IN THE STATE OF HIMACHAL PRADESH
    (UHF Nauni, 2024-05-18) ANCHAL THAKUR; Piyush Mehta
    The present study has been carried out on work environment setting variables influencing occupational stress and work efficiency among police personnel in the state of Himachal Pradesh. Multistage random sampling technique was done with a total sample size of 288 police personnel. Primary data was collected through a well -designed pre-tested schedule by survey method. The required secondary data was collected from various publications and government departments. Therefore, data was analyzed through a combination of statistical tools like Principal Component Analysis, Garrett Mean Score Analysis, Likert Scale Ranking Analysis, Chi-Square Test Analysis and other statistical tools. It was observed that the maximum sampled police personnel had good job experience. The various variables related to work environment among police personnel in the study area were ranked on the 5 point Likert scale which showed that the variables i.e., work pressure attains Ist rank followed by supervisor support which attains IInd rank, peer cohesion which was ranked IIIrd. The results of factor analysis revealed that statements of operational police stress were associated with non- understanding, work bound, limited social strata and harassed. In case of organizational police stress, the result of PCA revealed that the first factors extracted were spare time, overburdened, idleness, answerable, incompatible and management which explained the maximum variability in police personnel in the study area whereas, maximum variability in statements related to work efficiency among police personnel were compensation, remunerated, usage, payoff and embolden. Since, at an overall level, the trauma prevention training program was reported as the major intervention programme. It was also found that Police personnel were influenced with their peer group and family so some amount of training coverage may eventually reach larger groups. Therefore, it was suggested that services should be revamped and strengthen to cater for the existing needs of the police personnel in the study area
