Relationship of Work Climate and Job Strain Among University Teachers of Azad Jammu and Kashmir

Abstract

    This study was conducted to find out the relationship between work climate and job strain among university teachers of Azad Jammu and Kashmir. A survey was performed to gather the data for this study, which was descriptive in nature. All (145) of the University of Kotli's instructors made up the study's population. The sample was chosen using a universal sampling method. For instructors, a questionnaire with a five-point Likert scale was created. The researcher directly collected the data after evaluating its validity and dependability on the study's sample. Statistical Software for Social Sciences (SPSS) used the mean, standard deviation, and correlation to evaluate the data. Workplace atmosphere and workplace stress were found to be positively and significantly correlated. It is advised that educational schools concentrate on organizational culture and work to lessen employee stress.
