Dr. Vipinder Nagra, Mr. Arvind Kumar

Abstract :

The present study aims at finding out the level of occupational stress and emotional intelligence of 191 government school teachers in relation to their gender, age and marital status. The results reveal that government school teachers experienced moderate level of occupational stress while emotional intelligence levels were found to be high. Significant differences are indicated regarding occupational stress among government school teachers in relation to marital status. There is no significant difference in emotional intelligence of these teachers in relation to gender, age and marital status. However, correlation analysis reveals that significant and positive relationship exists between occupational stress and emotional intelligence.
