Occupational stress experienced by teachers is attributed by their workload. It can cause anxiety and depression which can lower the teacher’s ability to function at work or in their daily life.

Using the Multiple Linear Regression method derived with statistical tool Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 22, the finding shows that there is a significant linear relationship between time management, work-related stressors, teaching experience, self-motivation and the occupational stress.
