Abstract This study seeks to explore the concept of job stress within the Indian context, aiming to provide a comprehensive understanding of its nature, causes, and consequences across diverse sectors. Given India’s rapidly evolving economic landscape and its multifaceted workforce, the research delves into the theoretical underpinnings of job stress, drawing from established models such as the job demand-control model, effort-reward imbalance model, and person-environment fit theory, among others. By contextualizing these frameworks within India’s socio-cultural and organizational settings, the study highlights the unique stressors faced by Indian employees, ranging from hierarchical organizational structures and work-life imbalance to job insecurity and role ambiguity. The findings underscore the urgent need for context-specific strategies and interventions. Practical implications are presented for managers and organizational leaders, offering insights into mitigating stress through policy reforms, supportive leadership, and the promotion of employee well-being initiatives. This research contributes to the growing body of literature on occupational stress in emerging economies and provides a foundation for future inquiry into culturally informed stress management practices.
