The aim of the current research is to examine the relationship between occupational stressors (role ambiguity, role conflict, work overload) and employee performance in service sector of Lahore, Pakistan. While carrying out the study, the service sector was divided into four major categories on the basis of importance; i-e health, banking, educational, telecom and some other relevant service companies were selected with the help of stratified random sampling technique for data collection. Factor analysis and reliability test were applied to assess the questionnaire data. The primary data was collected from a sample of 350 respondents through self-administered questionnaires and the effective response rate was 88% which is highly acceptable. Further, for the purpose of data analysis, correlation, regression analysis and ANOVA tests were applied by using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS16.0).The findings and interpretations revealed a significant positive relationship between role ambiguity, work overload and employee performance.
