Book excerpt: Scientific Study from the year 2013 in the subject Education - Reading Instruction, grade: 7.8, Panjab University, language: English, abstract: Occupation is one of the important parts of our daily lives which cause a great deal of stress. Due to the competitive nature of the job environment, most of the people in the world are spending their time on job related work purposes resulting in ignoring the work and life. Usually people are more worried about the outcome of their work that can even affect the way they treat other people and how they communicate with their peers. In general, we can say that people with a higher percentage of occupation stress may not be satisfied with their job and therefore they will not feel happy working in the organization. So, we can say that it is very important for teacher to realize the stress that causes all the negative effects. Today, we all are a part of globalizing era which is characterized by excellence, competitions, quality etc. along with stress, strain n human being and in a world that is changing at a tremendous pace, globalization had led to an increase in the growth of education institutions all over the world and the education scene in Zambia is no exception and especially with the current scenario of trying to achieve the Millennium Development Goals (MDGS) of providing basic education for-all by 2015. To fulfill social, environmental, economical needs one has to face stress, strain and anxiety. One should accept that stress is reality of life. Thus, it should be considered as an important aspect of life without which life will become boring.

Book excerpt: The stress involved in a career in teaching has increased considerably in recent years. In England and Wales the implementation of the Education Reform Act has led to a whole range of organisational and curricular changes to add to the existing pressures of discipline problems, poor working conditions and low pay. Anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties and even physical illness are just some of the symptoms that result. This established guide, now wholly updated for teachers and managers in the 1990s, shows how to recognize the signs of stress and how to develop strategies to control it. Its practical advice, field-tested in numberous workshops for teachers and heads, should help scholls to reduce pressures on their staff by the development of satisfactory whole-school policies and teachers to be more effective in the management of their own stress levels.

Book excerpt: This book brings together the most current thinking and research on educator stress and how education systems can support quality teachers and quality education. It adopts an occupational health perspective to examine the problem of educator stress and presents theory-driven intervention strategies to reduce stress load and support educator resilience and healthy school organizations. The book provides an international perspective on key challenges facing educators such as teacher stress, teacher retention, training effective teachers, teacher accountability, cyber-bullying in schools, and developing healthy school systems. Divided into four parts, the book starts out by introducing and defining the problem of educator stress internationally and examining educator stress in the context of school, education system, and education policy factors. Part I includes chapters on educator mental health and well-being, stress-related biological vulnerabilities, the relation of stress to teaching self-efficacy, turnover in charter schools, and the role of culture in educator stress. Part II reviews the main conceptual models that explain educator stress while applying an occupational health framework to education contexts which stresses the role of organizational factors, including work organization and work practices. It ends with a proposal of a dynamic integrative theory of educator stress, which highlights the changing nature of educator stress with time and context. Part III starts with the definition of what constitute healthy school organizations as a backdrop to the following chapters which review the application of occupational health psychology theories and intervention approaches to reducing educator stress, promoting teacher resources and developing healthy school systems. Chapters include interventions at the individual, individual-organizational interface and organizational levels. Part III ends with a chapter addressing cyber-bullying, a new challenge affecting schools and teachers. Part IV discusses the implications for research, practice and policy in education, including teacher training and development. In addition, it presents a review of methodological issues facing researchers on educator stress and identifies future trends for research on this topic, including the use of ecological momentary assessment in educator stress research. The editors’ concluding comments reflect upon the application of an occupational health perspective to advance research, practice and policy directed at reducing stress in educators, and promoting teacher and school well-being.

Book excerpt: Introduction In everyday life, working class people come across many situations where they have to cope with many situations and conditions, putting them in a lot of stress. Stress has become an inevitable part of human life in modern times. It is becoming a global phenomenon affecting all genres of people. The optimum level of occupational stress poses a risk to most organizations. “Teachers in particular not only have the stress of dealing with so many diverse children on a day to day basis; they are also entitled with educating and helping to mold these children into productive members of society. With rules, regulations, guidelines and performance expectations can induce very high levels of stress; the job can be demanding and has hardly any relief. Quite often teachers must take their work home overnight or on the weekends in order to be prepared for the next class or session on the field, or the teachers will have to score the test given to the children, in free time, which is possible only when he/she gets home. The traditional summer break that so many teachers once looked forward to, has began to reduce over the past few years, as well with most schools beginning to adopt block schedules which require yearlong school sessions with no more than nine week vacation period”(Kaur, 2011).

Book excerpt: The combination of the findings of number of studies revealed that the phenomenon of stress problem of teachers is widespread and is not restricted to a particular country and may have an impact on teachers as individuals, on the schools in which they work and on the pupils they teach. Unfortunately, previous studies did not look in to what teachers feel about their job. In addition, the study did not assess which biographical groups experienced occupational stress more. The objectives of the present study were to identify whether high school teachers experienced occupational stress, the sources of stress and to see if the level of stress is related to various biographical variables such as Gender, age and experience.
