Abstract
Growing industrialization and technical advancement have caused an
obvious change in the field of teaching, rendering teaching today a
challenging task. The research examined occupational role stress among
Government secondary school teachers (S.S.T.s). The purpose of the study
was to find out the Role Stressors among secondary school teachers and
the relationship of Occupational Role Stress to the Health Related Quality
of Life of the teachers. The sample comprised of 200 S.S.T.s (100 men and
100 women). Purposive sampling technique was applied to draw the
sample. Cross-sectional Survey was used as research design in the study.
Data collection was done by using Questionnaires namely ORSS (Pareek,
1983), Q-LES-Q- Short Form (Endicott, Neej, Harrison, & Blumenthal,
1993), and WHOQOL-BREF (World Health Organization, 2004) in Urdu
version. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were used for data
analysis. The results showed that men S.S.T.s experienced more ORS than
women S.S.T.s and that men S.S.T.s had poor Physical Health as compared
to women S.S.T.s. It was also found that there had been no significant
relationship between ORS and demographic variables.
