The present research aims to determine the relationship between psychosocial stressors and work attitudes. In addition, this research also investigated the mediating effect of psychological strain in the relationship between psychosocial stressors and work attitudes. Online survey has been utilized to collect the data. 267 respondents responded to the survey producing 20% response rate. PASW18 and AMOS SPSS were used to analyze the data.
