AN EXAMINATION OF THE ROLE OF PROFESSIONAL STRESS ON WORK-LIFE BALANCE OF PRINT MEDIA EMPLOYEES

Abstract

The main aim of this study is to examine the role of professional stress among print media employees in terms of work life balance. The numerous statements/constructs are studied based on the replies provided by the respondents in order for the researcher to comprehend the Professional Stress faced by Employees. Based on a survey of the literature and discussions with employees in a pilot study, the researcher developed some statements to better understand the professional stress that employees face. These statements are organised into eight categories. Respondents are asked to express their Professional Stress experience using statements on a 5-point Likert rating scale. As a result, it was discovered that the majority of employees firmly agreed that there is employment instability in their industry and the majority of employees think that economic difficulty has caused professional stress for them. It is caused by conflict, familial pressure, and, most importantly, insufficient pay.
