Organisational stress on account of the dimensions organisational role, job satisfaction, policies, inter personal relationship, communication, working condition team work, security, autonomy, targets and structure were analysed . The dimension organisational role stress however was also studied in terms of its component dimensions inter role distance , role stagnation, role expectation conflict, role erosion, role isolation, role overload, personal inadequacy, self role distance, role ambiguity and resource inadequacy Stress was the most on account of the dimensions job satisfaction followed by team work, policy, autonomy, target, inter personal relationship, organisational structure, communication, work condition, security and organisartional role stress in that order. Job commitment was found positively correlated with stress due to dimensions target, autonomy, policy and security where as negatively correlated with stress due to the dimensions organisational role stress, job satisfaction, team work and structure. Among component dimensions of organisational role stress role overload was perceived as the dominant stressor followed by resource inadequacy, inter role distance, role stagnation, self role distance, role isolation, personal inadequacy, role expectation conflict, role ambiguity and role erosion in that order . Further it was revealed that role stress factors inter role distance was positively correlated whereas role stagnation,role expectation conflict, self role distance, personal inadequacy and role ambiguity were negatively correlated with job commitment. As for social commitment, it was positively correlated with stress on account of dimensions job satisfaction, interpersonal relationship, work condition, organisational structure, team work and policy whereas negatively correlated with communication. Social commitment was positively correlated with stress due to component dimensions of organisational role inter role distance and role overload whereas negatively correlated with role stagnation. Result also revealed an insignificant difference between perception of SVS and VS regarding all the eleven dimensions of stress.ennullThesis
