CHAPTER ONE
1.1 INTRODUCTION:
Stress is a fact of everyday life. When people reach out for help, they are
often dealing with circumstances, situation, and stressors in their lives that leave
feeling emotionally and physically overwhelmed. Many people feel that they have
very little resources or skills to deal with the high levels of stress they are
experiencing.

Workers who are stressed are also more likely to be unhealthy, poorly
motivated, less productive and less safe at work. Their organisations are less likely
to be successful in a competitive market.
Stress can be brought about by pressure at home and at work. Employers
of cannot usually protect workers from stress arising outside of work, but they can
protect them from stress that arises through work. Stress at work can be a real
problem to the organisation as well as for its workers. Good management and
good work organisation are the best forms of stress prevention. If employees are
already stressed, their manager should be aware of it and know how to help.

STRESS MANAGEMENT
1.1.2 MEANING
Our increasingly busy lives cause our minds a lot of stress. Stress is mental
tension caused by demanding, taxing or burdensome circumstances. Stress doesn’t
just affect our mental state and mood; it affects our physical health as well. When we
are much stressed, a hormone called cortisol is released into our bloodstream,
suppressing the functioning of our immune, digestive and reproductive systems. That
is why it is so important to practices stress management in order to keep our minds
and bodies healthy.
1.1.3 STRESS: WHAT IS IT?
Although we all talk about stress, it often isn’t clear what stress is really about. Many
people consider stress to be something that happens to them, an event such as an
injury or a job loss. Others think that stress is
what happens to our body, mind, and
behaviour in response to an event. E.g. Heart
Pounding, Anxiety, or Nail Biting. While
stress does involve events and our response
to then, these are not the most important
factors. Our thoughts about the situations in
which we find ourselves are the critical
factors.
Source: http://www.bridgetohealth.com
When something happens to us, we automatically. Evaluate the situation mentally.
We decide if it is threatening to us, how we need to deal with the Situation, and what
skills we can use.
If we decide that the demands of the situation outweighthe skills we have, then we
label the situation as “Stressful” and react with the classic “Stress Response.” If we
decide that our coping skills outweigh the demands of the situation, then we don’t see
it as “Stressful.”
Stress is a normal part of life. In small quantities, stress is good; it can motivate you
and help you become more productive. However, too much stress, or a strong

STRESS MANAGEMENT
response to stress can be harmful. How we perceive a stress provoking event and how
we react to it determines its impact on our health. We may be motivated and
invigorated by the events in our lives, or we may see some as “Stressful” and respond
in a manner that may have a negative effect on our physical, mental, and social well-
being.
If we always respond in a negative way, our health and happiness may suffer. By
understanding ourselves and our reaction to stress-provoking situation, we can learn
to handle stress more effectively. In the most accurate meaning, stress management is
not about learning how to avoid or escape the pressures and turbulence of modern
living; it is about learning to appreciate how the body reacts to these pressures, and
about learning how to develop skills which enhance the body’s adjustment. To learn
stress management is to learn about the mind-body connection and to the degree to
which we can control our health in a positive sense.
1.1.4 DEFINITION
“An adaptive response to an internal and external situation that results in physical,
psychological and behavioural deviations”
1.1.5 SOURCES OF STRESS
We can experience stress from five basic sources:
1. The Environment:
The first source of stress, strain and hassle in your life, can be that of environmental
stress. This type of stress relates to those aspects of your environment and
surroundings that are causing you stress. Examples of environmental stressors include
weather, noise, crowding, pollution, traffic, unsafe and substandard housing, and
crime.
2. Social Stressors:
A second major source of stress is called social stress. This relates to the stress
involved in interacting, socializing and communicating with other human beings. It
revolves around your relationship with other people. Some of these social interactions
and relationships can be very stressful and tension filled experiences in your life.

STRESS MANAGEMENT
Other can be enjoyable and positive types of social stress and social interaction.
Examples of social stress include deadlines, financial problems, job interviews,
presentations, disagreements, demands for your time and attention, loss of a loved
one, divorce and co-parenting.
3. Physiological:
A third source of stress is physiological stress. This related to how you physiology,
your body reacts and responds to stressful situations. It is often discussed as physical
stress and in relation to the physical stress symptoms you exhibit. Examples of
physiological stressors include rapid growth of adolescence, menopause, illness,
aging, giving birth, accidents, lack of exercise, poor nutrition, and sleep disturbances.

4. Organizational Stress:
All of us engage with, belong to and are often employed by an organization. This can
result in organizational stress. Some experts in stress management and stress relief
treatment discuss this stress source under the areas of environmental or social stress.
For others, it warrants a category of its own, since organizational of all types play an
important role in our lives. Most often this source of stress is associated with work
stress and job stress. It often involves the demands and pressures placed upon you by
the organization, business or group for which you work. However, it also involves any
organization with which you interact including the local government organization,
clubs, associations and more.

STRESS MANAGEMENT
5. Thoughts:
Your brain interprets and perceives situation as stressful, difficult, painful, or
pleasant. Some situations in life are stress provoking, but it is our thoughts that
determine whether they are a problem for us.
1.2. TYPES OF STRESS
Situations that are considered stress provoking are known as stressors. Stress is not
always a bad thing. Stress is simply the body’s responses to change that create taxing
demands. Many professionals suggest that there is a difference between what we
perceive as positive stress, and distress, which refers to negative stress. In daily life,
we often use the term “stress” to describe negative situations. This leads many people
to believe that all stress is bad for you, which is not true.

1.3 SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF STRESS
It is important to learn how to recognize when your stress levels are “out of control”
or having an adverse effect. The signs and symptoms of stress can be almost anything
stress affects the mind, body, and behaviour in many ways and everyone experiences
stress differently.
Three common ways that people respond when they are overwhelmed by stress are:-
1. An angry or agitated stress response. You may feel heated, keyed-up, overly
emotional, and unable to sit still.
2. A withdrawn or depressed stress response. You shut down, space out, and
show very little energy or emotion.
3. Both a tense and frozen stress response. You “freeze” under pressure and feel
like you can’t do anything. You look paralyzed, but under the surface you may
feel extremely agitated.
The following list some of the common warning signs and symptoms of stress. The
more signs and symptoms you notice in yourself, the closer you might be to feeling
stress.

1.3.1 EFFECT OF STRESS
Stress is difficult for professionals to define because it is a highly subjective
phenomenon that differs for each of us. Things that are distressful for some
individuals can be pleasurable for others. We also respond to stress differently. Some
people blush, some eat more while others grow pale or eat less. There are numerous
physical as well as emotional responses as illustrated by the following list of 10
common signs and symptoms of stress.

1.4 STRESS AND COPING MECHANISM
High level of stress affects the individuals directly and through them, their families
and organisation are also affected. Therefore, efforts should be made to overcome the
negative consequences of high stress.
Support required
Figure 1.4: Stress and coping mechanism
Stress management is required when an individual is unable to cope with the
demanding environment. This inability generates anxiety and produces defensive
behaviour and stress symptoms. Therefore, the actions are required for developing
adaptive behaviour so as to overcome the consequences of stress. Such actions may be
taken at individual’s level as well at organisational level.
Individuals Coping Strategies
Stress may cause within organisational context and outside as discussed earlier.
Therefore, coping strategies may be adopted by individuals without reference to the
organisation. Individuals coping strategies tend to be more reactive in nature, that is
they tend to be ways of coping with stress that has already occurred. Following are the
major individuals coping strategies.

STRESS MANAGEMENT
1. Physical Exercise: Physical exercise is a good strategy to get body fit and to
overcome stress. Physical exercises of different types such as walking, jogging,
swimming, playing etc. are good methods of overcoming stress. The role of Yoga, a
scientific technique of physical exercise to keep body fit and to overcome stress, has
been recognised in most part of the world. Physical exercise help people to better
cope with stress generally as a side effect such as relaxation, enhanced self-esteem,
and simply getting one’s mind off work for a while.
2. Relaxation: Impact of stress can be overcome by relaxation. The relaxation can be
simple one or some specific techniques of relaxation such as bio-feedback and
meditation. In bio-feedback, he individual learns the internal rhythms of a particular
body process through electronic signal feedback that is wired to the body area .
For Example: Skin, Brain, or Heart.
Meditation involves quiet concentrated inner thought in order to rest the body
physically and emotionally. Transcendental meditation is one of the more popular
practices of meditation.
3. Work-home Transition: Work – home transition is also like a relaxation
technique. In this technique, a person attend to less pressure inducing type or routine
work during the last 30 or 60 minutes of work time. For instance, during the last hour
of work, the person can review the day’s activities; list the priorities of the activities
that need to be attended to the next day. Thus, he can finish his day’s work and come
back in relaxed manner.
4. Cognitive Therapy: Because of increasing stress, special cognitive therapy
techniques have been developed by psychologists. In these techniques, lectures and
interactive discussion session are arrange to help participants to :
I. Recognise events at work and what cognitions they elicit;
II. Become aware of the effects of such cognitions on their physiological and
emotional responses.
III.Systematically evaluate the objective consequences of events at work.
IV. Replace self-defeating cognitions that unnecessarily arouse strain.
5. Networking:Networking is the formation of close associations with trusted,
empathetic co –worker and colleagues who are good listeners and confidence
builders, such persons provide mental support to get the person through stressful
situation.

STRESS MANAGEMENT
Organisational coping Strategies
Organisational coping strategies are more of proactive nature, that is, they attempt at
removing existing or potential stressors and prevent the onset of stress of individuals
job holders. As discussed earlier, there are many organisational stressors. Therefore,
the organisational coping strategies revolve around those factors which produce or
help producing stress.
1. Supportive Organisational Climate:Many of the organisational stressors emerge
because of faulty organisational processes and practices. To a very great extent, these
can be controlled by creating supportive organisational climate. Supportive
organisational climate depends on managerial leadership rather than the use of power
and money to control organisational behaviour. The focus is primarily on participation
and involvement of employees in decision- making process. Such a climate develops
belongingness among people which helps them reduce their stress.
2. Job Enrichment: A major source of stress is the monotonous and disinteresting
jobs being performed by employees in the organisation. Through more rational
designing of jobs as discussed earlier, jobs can be enriched. Improving content factors
such as responsibility recognition, opportunity for achievement and advancement, or
improving core job characteristics such as skill variety, task identity, task
significance, autonomy, and feedback may lead to motivation, feeling sense of
responsibility, and utilising maximum capability of the work.
3. Organisational Role Clarity: People experience stress when they are not clear
about what they are expected to do in the organisation. This may happen because
either there is ambiguity in the role or there is role conflict. Such a situation can be
overcome by defining role more clearly. Role analysis technique helps both managers
and employees to analyse what the job entails and what the expectations are. Breaking
down the job to its various components clarities the role of the job incumbent for the
entire system. This helps to eliminate imposing unrealistic expectations on the
individual. Role ambiguity, role conflict, and role overload can be minimised,
consequently leading to reduced stress.
4. Career Planning and Counselling: Career planning and counselling helps the
employees to obtain professionals advice regarding career paths that would help them
to achieve personal goals. It also makes them aware of what additional qualifications,
trainings should acquire for career advancement.

STRESS MANAGEMENT
5. Stress Control Workshops: Organisations can organise periodical workshop for
control and reduction of stress. Such workshop may help individuals to learn the
dynamics of stress and methods of overcoming its ill effects. Stress Counsellors,
either from within or from outside, can participates as experts who can guide the
individuals how to overcome stress.
1.5 STATEMENT OF PROBELEM:
In today’s scenario every organization strives to attain better efficiency in not
only just its productivity but overall function of the organization. Stress can be
considered as an inevitable condition at least at one point in time or another; however
it can also be minimised to the extent that the productivity and health of the
employees is maintained which could lead to the productive organisation. Stress is
also bound to occur in multinational companies where operation is global and
employees have different cultural background. Hence, this research is in the direction
of studying the stress management carried out at BIC Cello Exports Pvt. Ltd.
1.5.1 NEED OF STUDY

ensuring better results and success in your professional life. Stress management is one
of the most important agendas for the top management. Stress management can take
different forms like dealing with the cause of stress to burning of its effect. To plan
for your own stress management techniques would be to identify the root causes. Try
to set boundaries on the expectation of others, usually expectations creates a lot of
stress.

CHAPTER THREE
3.1 INTRODUCTION:
Research in common parlance refers to a search for knowledge. One can also define
research as a scientific and systematic search for pertinent information on a specific
topic. In fact, research is an art of scientific investigation. Dictionary definition of
Research is a careful investigation or inquiry especially through search for new facts
in any branch of knowledge. Some people consider research as a movement from the
known to the unknown.
Source: http://research-methodology.net
It is actually a voyage of discovery. We all process the vital instinct
of inquisitiveness. When the unknown confronts us, more and more our
inquisitiveness makes us probe and attain understanding of the unknown. This
inquisitiveness is the mother of all knowledge and the methods, which one employs
for obtaining the knowledge of whatever the unknown, can be termed as research.
3.1.1 MEANING OF RESEARCH:
Research is a logical and systematic search for new and useful
information on a particular topic. It is an investigation of finding solution to scientific
and social problems through objectives and systematic analysis.
It is a search for knowledge that is a discovery of hidden truths. Here knowledge
means information about matters. The information might be collected from different
sources like experience, human beings, books, journals, nature, etc. A research can
lead to new contributes to the existing knowledge. Research is done with the help of
study.

STRESS MANAGEMENT
3.1.2 MEANING OF METHODOLOGY:
Methodology is the systematic, theoretical analysis of the methods applied
to a field of study. It comprises the theoretical analysis of the body of methods and
principles associated with a branch of knowledge. Typically, it encompasses concepts
such as paradigm, theoretical model, phases and quantitative or qualitative technique
3.1.3 IMPORTANCE OF RESEARCH:
Research is important both in scientific and non scientific fields.
In our life new problems, events, phenomena and processes occur every day.
Practically, implementable, solutions and suggestions are required for tacking new
problems that arise.
 Research on existing theories and concepts help us identify the range and
applications of them.
 It is the fountain of knowledge and provides guidelines for solving problems.
 Research if helpful to study the related matters for the researchers.
 Helps in solving planning and structural problems.
3.1.4 TYPES OF RESEARCH:
There are many types of research as follow:
Figure. 3.1.4: Types of Research

STRESS MANAGEMENT
1. Fundamental Research:
Fundamental Research, also known as Basic Research or Pure Research does not
usually generate finding that have immediate applications in a practical level.
Fundamental Research is driven by Curiosity and the desire to expand knowledge in
specific research area. This type of research makes a specific contribution to the
academic body of knowledge in the research area.
Fundamental Studies tend to make generalization about the phenomenon, and the
philosophy of this type of studies can be explained as “Gathering Knowledge for the
sake of knowledge”. Fundamental Researches mainly aim to answer the question of
why, what or how and they tend to contribute the pool of fundamental knowledge in
the research area.
2. Applied Research:
Applied Research “Aims at finding a solution for an immediate problem facing a
society, or an industrial / business organisation, whereas Fundamental Research is
mainly concerned with generalisation and with the formulation of a theory”
Applied Research is usually launched by a company, agency or an individual in order
to address a specific problem.
3. Quantitative Research:
This research is based on numeric figure or numbers.
Quantitative research aims to measure the quality or amount and compares it with past
records and tries to project for future period. In social sciences, “Quantitative research
refers to the systematic empirical investigation of quantitative properties and
phenomena and their relationships”. The objective of quantitative research is to
develop and employ mathematical models, theories or hypothesis pertaining to
phenomena.
4. Qualitative Research:
Qualitative research presents non-qualitative type of analysis.
Qualitative research is collecting, analyzing and interpreting data by observing what
people do and say. Qualitative research refers to the meaning, definitions,
characteristics, symbols, metaphors, and description of things. Qualitative research is

much more subjective and uses very different methods of collecting information,
mainly individual, in-depth interviews and focus groups.
3.1.5 RESEARCH PROCESS:

3.1.6 RESEARCH DESIGN:
A research design is the document of the study. The design of a study defines the
study type (descriptive, correlation, semi-experimental, experimental, review, meta-
analytical) and sub-type (descriptive-longitudinal case study, research question,
hypotheses, independent and dependent variables, experimental design and if
applicable, data collection methods and a statistical analysis plan. Research design is
the framework that has been created to seek answers to research questions. It refers to
the overall strategy that you choose to integrated the different components of the
study in a coherent and logical way, thereby, ensuring you will effectively address the
research problem; it constitutes the blueprint for the collection, measurement and
analysis of data.

3.1.7 PURPOSE OF RESEARCH
To identify and define opportunity and problems.
To provide inspiration to find out new facts when problem daily in Business
activities.
To study the dynamic of cause and effect relationship between business and
society.
To improve our understanding of the various field of management.
It gains a comprehensive understanding of consumer’s needs and
requirements.
It develops new tools, concepts and theories for improved study of
unidentified phenomenon.
3.2 DATA COLLECTION:
Data collection can be divided into two categories- Secondary & Primary.
Secondary Data Collection:
Secondary data is a type of data that has already been published in books, newspaper,
magazines, journals, online portals etc. There is an abundance of data available in this
source about your research area in business studies, regardless of the nature of the
research area. Therefore, application of appropriate set of criteria to select secondary
data to be used in the study plays an important role in terms of increasing the levels of
research validity and reliability.
Source: https://www.minter.com.au/data-collection.html
These criteria include, but not limited to date of publication, credential of the author,
reliability of the source, quality of discussions, depth of analyses, extent of
contribution of the text to the development of the research area etc.

STRESS MANAGEMENT
Primary Data Collection:
Primary Data Collection methods can be divided into two groups:
Quantitative Data: Quantitative data collection methods are based in mathematical
calculation in various formats. Methods of quantitative data collection and analysis
include questionnaires with closed-ended question, methods of correlation and
regression, mean, mode and median and others.
Qualitative Data: Qualitative research methods, on the contrary, do not involve
numbers or mathematical calculations. Qualitative research is closely associated with
words, sounds, feeling, emotions, colours and other elements that are non-
quantifiable.
3.3 SAMPLE:
Sample:
Some representative items are selected from the population, so that all important
characteristics of population are covered in the items of this group. Such a group is
called as Sample.
Source: http://www.joshuacasper.com
Population:
Population refers to total of items about which information is desired. The population
can be finite or infinite. The population is said to finite if it consists of a fixed number
of elements so that it is possible to enumerate it in its totality where as an infinite
population is that population in which it is theoretically impossible to observe all the

elements. Thus the group of objects or individual under study is called population. For
this study there were 1000 employees or population working in the organization.
Source: www.population.com
Sample Size: It is essential to have proper sampling for the study of a problem. It
means that the sample should be of proper size. If the sample is either too small or too
big it shall make the study difficult. For this study 50 employees were selected as a
sample size for conducting the research.
3.4 METHODOLOGY OF CURRENT STUDY AND TOOLS USED:
There are various methods used to conduct a research.
For this study survey methods has been used to conduct the research by giving the
questionnaire having 20 questions in it to the employee and their opinion has been
taken. The questionnaire was in structured and closed ended form. The respondents
were selected by random sampling method.
There were various statistical tools used for research like simple, tables, percentage
and various charts like histogram, pie chart, bar diagrams.
3.5 FUTURE SCOPE OF CURRENT STUDY:
 More time should be given to the researcher for the further study on the topic.
 Sample size was limited only to 50 respondents if the sample size is increased
more accurate information can be gathered.
 The researcher should get support from top level management during the
research work.

4.1.1 DATA INTERPRETATION:
Data interpretation is part of daily life for most people. Interpretation is the process of
making sense of numerical data that has been collected, analyzed and presented.
People interpret data when they turn on the television and hear the news anchor, or
when they choose grocery store items that claim they are more effective than other
leading brands.
A common method of assessing numerical data is known as statistical analysis, and
the activity of analyzing and interpreting data in order to make predictions is known
as inferential statistics. Informed consumers recognize the importance of judging the
reasonableness of data interpretations and predictions by considering sources of bias
such as sampling procedure or misleading questions, margins of errors, confidence
intervals.
