Abstract:
This paper investigates the differences of organizational Role Stress (ORS) among men and women bank officers of private and public sectors. Ten types of role stress were measured using ORS scale. The total sample from 456 respondents was divided into two on the basis of gender. Mean was calculated for each type of role stress and for the total role stress for both the groups. To test the significance of difference among the above-mentioned groups for each role stress variable, t-test has been used. Results indicate that women experience more stress than men on most of the stress parameters. Moreover, women in private sector banks experience more stress than women in public sector banks.
