Summary: | Stress will be described as how an individual feel with his or her job. Stress is an excuse, a state of mind, and a marketing tool and also a physiological experience (Smith and Segal, 2013).

The existence of stress at workplace will impact the organization as a whole. Thus, the stress should be managed wisely and effectively. Stress management started by identifying the causes of stress in the life. The keys to the success of managing stress are to think positively, control, and learn effectively the techniques to deal with stress.
