CHAPTER -1
INTRODUCTION AND
RESEARCH DESIGN
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Stress is basically the impact of one object on another. There are the terms which are used
synonymously to denote this phenomenon: stress, strain and pressure. However, there are thin
differences in these terms. Stress is a term basically used in physical science which means
pressure of one object on another, from the physical science and finally to social science.

A lot of research has been conducted into stress over the last hundred years. Some of the
theories behind it are now settled and accepted; others are still being researched and debated.
During this time, there seems to have been something approaching open warfare between
competing theories and definitions

Hans Selye was one of the founding fathers of stress research. His view in 1956 was that
"stress is not necessarily something bad - it all depends on how you take it. The stress of
exhilarating, creative successful work is beneficial, while that of failure, humiliation or infection
is detrimental." Selye believed that the biochemical effects of stress would be experienced
irrespective of whether the situation was positive or negative. Since then, a great deal of further
research has been conducted, and ideas have moved on.

Stress is now viewed as a "bad thing", with a range of harmful biochemical and long-term
effects. These effects have rarely been observed in positive situations. The most commonly
accepted definition of stress (mainly attributed to Richard S Lazarus) is that stress is a condition
or feeling experience when a person perceives that "demand exceed the personal and social
resources the individual is able to mobilize".
Canadian physician Hans Selye (1970-1982) in this book the stress of life 1956
popularized the idea of stress. According to selye, the general Adaptation Syndrome consists of
three phases. Managing stress is all about taking charge of your thoughts, your emotions, your
schedule, your environnent and the way you deal with problem. The ultimate goal is a balance
life, with time for work relationship. relaxation and fun -plus the resilience to hold up under
pressure and meet challenges head on.

1
Definition
Stress is a condition or feeling experienced when a person perceives that "demands exceed
the personal and social resources the individual is able to mobilize".
Stress in individual is define as any interference that a person's health mental and physical
well being. It occurs when the body is required to perform beyond its normal range of
capabilities. Stress is the way that you react physically, mentally and affect your physical and
mental well being and performances. The result of stress are harmful to individuals, families,
society and organizations, which can suffer from organization stress". Ivancevich and matte son
define stress as individual with the environment.

Behr and Newman


Define job stress as a condition arising from the interaction of people and their jobs and
characterized by changes within people that force them to deviate from their normal functioning"
Stress is a dynamic condition, which an individual is confronted with an opportunity,
constrain or demand related to what he or she desires and for which the outcome is perceived to
be both uncertain and important. Stress is associated with constraints and demand. The former
prevent you doing what you desire. The latter refers to the loss of something desired. Stress is
higher for those individual who perceive that they are uncertain as to whether they will win or
lose and lower for those individual who think winning or losing is certainty. This article review
and summarizes two decades of empirical literature concerned with both direct and moderating
variable-based analysis of the relationship of organizational stress with satisfaction and job
performances.
Moderating influences of various constructs operational zed at the individual, group and
organization level of analysis are classified and then reviewed systematically. An evaluation
summary of this research suggests that although there have been significant improvements in the
analytical methods employed to reciprocal relationships that evolve over time.

2
Four Common Types of Stress
1. Time stress
2. Anticipatory stress
3. Situational stress
4. Encounter stress
5. Work stress
 Time Stress
You experience time stress when you worry about time, or the lack there. You worry about
the number of things that you have to do, and you fear that you'll fail to achieve something
important. You might feel trapped, unhappy, or even hopeless.

 Anticipatory Stress
Anticipatory stress describes stress that you experience concerning the future. Sometimes
this stress can be focused on a specific event, such as an upcoming presentation that you're going
to give. However, anticipatory stress can also be vague and undefined, such as an overall sense
of dread about the future, or a worry that "something will go wrong."

 Situational Stress
You experience situational stress when you're in a scary situation that you have no control
over. This could be an emergency. More cotimonly, however, it's a situation that involves
conflict, or a loss of status or acceptance in the eyes of your group. For instance, getting laid off
or making a major mistake in front of your team. are examples of events that can cause
situational stress

3
 Encounter Stress
Encounter stress revolves around people. You experience encounter stress when you worry
about interacting with a certain person or group of people - you may not like them, or you might
that they're unpredictable.
Encounter stress can also occur if your role involves a lot of personal interactions with
customers or clients, especially if those groups are in distress. For instance, physicians and social
workers have high rates of encounter stress, because the people they work with routinely don't
feel well, or are deeply upset.

 Work stress
We review and summarize the literature on work stress with particular emphasis on those
studies that examined the effects of work characteristics on employee health. Stress at work
place an important role in the development of negative individual and organizational factors and
from a common element linking working conditions, substance abuse and violent acts.
The results, published in the Scandinavian Journal of Public Health, link this situation to
dyslipidemia a disorder that alters the levels of lipids and lipoproteins in the blood .Experts have
been saying for years that emotional stress is linking to the risk of suffering cardiovascular
disease as a result of unhealthy habits such as smoking, an unsuitable diet or leading a sedentary
lifestyle, among other factors.
Although there is not convincing evidence that job stressors cause health effects, the
indirect evidence is strongly suggestive of a work stress effect. This evidence comes from
occupational studies that show differences in health and mortality that are not easily explained by
other factors and within-subject studies that demonstrate a causal effect of work experiences on
physiological and emotional responses.

How to reduce, prevent and cope up with stress


It may seem that there's nothing you can do about your stress level. The bills aren't going to stop
coming, there will never be more hours in the day for all your errands, and your career or family
responsibilities will always be demanding. But you have a lot more control than you

4
might think. In fact, the simple realization that you're in control of your life is the
foundation of stress management. Managing stress is all about taking charge: taking charge of
your thoughts, your emotions, your schedule, your environment, and the way you deal with
problems.

Dimensions of Health
 Physical Health
When the cells, tissues, organs, and systems that function together to form your body is in
good working order, you experience physical health. You are able to minimize disease and injury
and function at an optimal level. Physical characteristics include things like body weight, visual
acuity, skin integrity, and level of endurance. Taking care of your body through healthy nutrition
and exercise, adequate sleep, avoidance of alcohol and drug abuse, and regular health screenings
are examples of promotion of health in the physical dimension.
There is a strong relationship between physical health and stress. You will learn that stress
is a risk factor for many of the serious health problems that plague our society today. Stress has
been shown to weaken the immune system resulting in increased susceptibility to a variety of
health problems. A strong, healthy body is better able to resist many of the damaging
physiological changes that might otherwise result from excessive stress. It works both ways:
stress can cause disease and illness and disease and illness can cause stress.

 Intellectual Health
Intellectual, or mental, health relates to your ability to think and learn from experiences,
your ability to assess and question new information, and your openness to new learning. Your
mind, and how and what you think, has a powerful impact on your health and well-being. In this
text, you will learn about exciting new research that helps us understand this connection between
the body and the mind.
Learning about stress is an important first step in preventing and managing stress. Wise decision-
making skills will allow you to process the information you learn and apply this information to a
plan to improve your health and well-being. You will be presented with a

5
variety of stress prevention and stress management techniques in this book. Through critical
thinking and informed choice, you will decide on the tools and techniques that work best for you.

 Emotional Health
While mental health encompasses thoughts and the mind, emotional health pertains to
feelings. It involves experiencing and appreciating a wide range of feelings and an ability to
express these feelings and emotions in a healthy manner. The ability to remain flexible and to
cope with the ups and downs of life is an indication of emotional wellness.
The relationship between stress and emotional health is strong. While we are all affected by
feelings such as anger, fear, happiness, worry, love, guilt, or loneliness, the emotionally healthy
individual uses healthy coping skills to keep from becoming overwhelmed by these feelings.
Dealing successfully with stress means you take control of your emotions, rather than your
emotions taking control of you.

 Spiritual Health
Spiritual health relates to the morals and values that guide you and that give meaning,
direction and purpose to your life. A conviction that your life is meaningful and a belief that your
life is guided by a reality greater than yourself are indications of spiritual health. Spiritually
healthy people believe their life has value and that they are here for a reason. The spiritual
dimension may be the foundation for all other dimensions of health.
Stress, especially chronic stress, is often caused by a sense of aimlessness or lack of
purpose. Much of stress in today's society relates to being out of touch with our values and
beliefs. Living your life and making choices that are not consistent with your core values can be
very stressful. For example, if you highly value family and yet find that demands of work and
school leave very little time for family, you will likely experience distress. In later chapters, you
will learn how techniques, such as values clarification, can contribute to spiritual peace.
Nurturing your spiritual dimension through religion, volunteer work, nature, art, music, or
other avenues above and beyond your own immediate needs will most certainly reduce stress and
promote health. Chapter 10 will discuss spirituality as a key component toward stress
management.

6
 Social Health
Social health refers to the ability to relate to others and express care and concern for others.
The ability to interact effectively with others, to develop satisfying interpersonal relationships,
and to fulfill social roles is important for social health. Relationships with others, particularly
family and friends, affect social well-being. When you are socially healthy, you feel accepted by
others and see yourself as an important part of your world.
A strong social support system increases the capacity for handling the demands of life. As
you will learn in the chapter on social support, study after study shows that people who have the
support of friends and family are better able to deal with the ups and downs of life.

1.6 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Research Meaning
Research is an art of scientific investigation. According to Reedmen and Mary defines
research as a "Systematic effort to gain knowledge

Research Methodology
Research methodology is a way to systematically solve the research problem. It is a plan of
action for a research project and explain in detail how data are collected & analyzed. This
research study is a descriptive research study.

Research Design
Research design is the specification of the method and procedure for acquiring the
information needed to solve the problem. A research design is a plan that specifies the objectives
of the study, method to be adopted in the data collection, tools in data analysis and hypothesis to
be framed
.
Sampling Design
In this study the convenience sampling was selection for this research. Convenience
sampling refers to the collection of information from member of population who are
conveniently available to provide. Research or field workers have the freedom to choose as
sample who never they find thus it is named as convenience. The assumption is that the target
population is homogeneous and the individual selection as sample is similar to the overall defied
target population with regard to the characteristics being studied.

1.6.1 Sample Size


The number of samples collected for this study is 82.

SOURCES OF DATA COLLECTION


,
Primary data (survey method).

12
1.7 DATA ANALYSIS

To analyze and interrupt collected data the following statistical tools were used.
1. Percentage method
2. Correlation
3. Chi-square

1. Percentage method
The percentage is used for making comparison between two or more series of data. It is
used to classify the opinion of the respondents for different factors. It is calculated as
No of respondents favourable
Percentage of Respondents = ⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻ 100
Total no of respondents

2. Correlation
The correlation analysis is the statistical tool we can use to describe the degree to which one
variable is linearly related to each other. There are three types of correlation
1. Positive and negative correlation
2. Simple, multiple and partial
3. Linear and non-linear

If two of the variables move in the same direction then they are positively correlated. On the
other hand if two variables move on opposite direction then they are negatively correlated 16.

The correlation analysis deals with association between two or more sample variables. The
correlation does not necessary imply causation or functional relationship though the existence of
causation always implies correlation. By itself it establishes only co- variance

13
nƩXY-ƩXƩY
r= ⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻
√[nƩX2 -(ƩX)2] √[nƩY2-(ƩY)2]

3. Chi Square Test


A chi-square test (also chi-squared or 2 test) is any statistical hypothesis test in which the
sampling distribution of the test statistic is a chi-square distribution when the null hypothesis is
true, or any in which this is asymptotically true, meaning that the sampling distribution (if the
null hypothesis is true) can be made to approximate a chi-square distribution as closely as
desired by making the sample size large enough.
In probability theory and statistics, the chi-square distribution (also chi-squared or x
distribution) with k degrees of freedom is the distribution of a sum of the squares of k
independent standard normal random variables. It is one of the most widely used probability
distributions in inferential statistics.
The best-known situations in which the chi-square distribution is used are the common chi-
square tests for goodness of fit of an observed distribution to a theoretical one, and of the
independence of two criteria of classification of qualitative data. Many other statistical tests also
lead to a use of this distribution, like Friedman's analysis of variance by ranks.

The chi-square test is defined for the hypothesis:


HO: The data follow a specified distribution.
Ha: The data do not follow the specified distribution.
Test Statistic: For the chi-square goodness-of- fit computation, the data are divided into k bins
and the test statistic is defined as
Where:
O is the observed frequency
E is the expected frequency

REVIEW OF LITERATURE

HEATHER CRAYTON, JANUARY-2013 Organizations are constantly undergoing change


through new demands, changing technology, demographic changes and increased competition.
Due to the increase in workload, psychological problems related to occupational stress have
increased rapidly. There is a growing awareness of how stress adversely affects organizational
efficiency. The implementation of stress management programs to counteract this problem has
been slow. In this paper I will examine a stress management program in an organization who
claimed that they were active and successful in stress management for their employees. The
purpose of this research paper is to illustrate the overall importance of stress management in the
workplace. The research paper will start by giving a definition of the term stress management.
After that, it will illustrate the stress management programs implemented by the organization.
Next, it will suggest additional stress management components and ideas beneficial for the
company. Finally, the last point will cover the comparison of the organization's implementation
of stress management program to possible other stress models

NAVEEN.M, JULY-2013 Stress management refers to the wide spectrum of techniques and
psychotherapies aimed at controlling a person's levels of stress, especially chronic stress, usually
for the purpose of improving everyday functioning. In this context, the term 'stress' refers only to
a stress with significant negative consequences, or distress in the terminology advocated by Hans
Selye, rather than what the calls eustress. Stress produces numerous symptoms which vary
according to persons, situations, and severity. These can include physical health decline as well
as depression. The process of stress management is named as one of the keys to a happy and
successful life in modern society. Although life provides numerous demands that can prove
difficult to handle, stress management provides a number of ways to manage anxiety and
maintain overall well-being.

15
HEIDE, MAY-2010 Organizations are constantly undergoing change through new demands,
changing technology, demographic changes and increased competition. Due to the increase in
workload, psychological problems related to occupational stress have increased rapidly in
Western countries (van deer Klink, Roland, & Bonk, 2001). More than ever before, job stress has
become a hazard to the health of employees and in turn the health of organizations (Saunter,
Hurrell, Scharf, & Sinclair, 2003). The purpose of this research paper is to illustrate the overall
importance of stress management in the workplace. The research paper will start by giving a
definition of the term stress management. After that, it will illustrate advantages and limitations
of occupational stress management. Finally, the third point will cover the role of a Human
Resource Manager in the field of stress management.

KTIEBUG, APRIL-2011 Everyone deals with stress in their daily lives. Stress can come from
work, school, home, or children. There are many different techniques you can do to solve your
problems with stress. Some of the things I would like to cover in this paper are how to reduce,
cope, and prevent stress on a daily basis that may occur in your life.
While researching this topic I found a web page that has information about dealing with stress on
a day to day basis. Though this web page suggested numerous of things, I am only going to
mention a few of them. The greatest way to identify stress in your life is by knowing what may
be causing it. Stress can be caused by different things in your life, such as your feelings and
behaviors may affect the way you function on a day to day basis. If you have anything in your
life that is causing you to feel indifferent then that will affect the way you perform at work,
school, or at home. Not only does it show poor performance in your work, other co workers or
professors are able to see that.

However, sometimes being worried about deadlines at work can cause a great deal of stress.
Because if you don't finish your deadlines on time then you are stuck at work until late at night
or you could possibly take what is bothering you home.

16
SARATCHAND, DECEMBER-2010 Stress is the spice of life. Without stress, life would be
boring. Productivity would decrease. Excitement in living would dwindle. Believe it or not, we
often seek out stressful (or thrilling) experiences to heighten our sense of excitement and
adventure in life. However, most of us view stress as negative and something to avoid. It may
seem that there's nothing you can do about your stress level. But you have a lot more control than
you might think. In fact, the simple realization that you're in control of your life is the foundation
of stress management. Managing stress is all about taking charge: taking charge of your
thoughts, your emotions, your schedule, your environment, and the way you deal with problems.
The ultimate goal is a balanced life, with time for work, relationships, relaxation, and fun - plus
the resilience to hold up under pressure and meet challenges head on. For many people, stress is
a daily reality. Some events, such as an important sports competition or a deadline for a paper,
can cause stress that helps motivate us to perform at our best. Unfortunately, stress often
becomes a negative presence in our lives. Stress throws us off balance and can have serious
health consequences if left unchecked. Learning how to manage stress will make you more able
to handle challenging situations and significant events in your life.

SHARMASAURABH, APRIL-2012 Stress management (SM) is a widely used term with a


seemingly obvious meaning. The research literature contains many studies evaluating its
effectiveness, but it is not clear how many different forms of SM exist and how efficacious they
are for which target problem. One hundred and fifty-three studies on SM were analyzed to
determine consensus in definitions and therapy protocols. Results showed that a typical delivery
format exists (mostly group form, 8-10 sessions in length and multi technique), but the number
of techniques used was very large, techniques were inconsistently labeled are often poorly
described. It is concluded that in outcome research, the term "stress management" is
operationally defined with such variability that comparisons of SM outcome studies are not
meaningful at this time.
In recent months Methodist Hospital have developed a stress management progi am. The
organization is struggling in their ability consistently manage the program. Though stress
management program was designed to offer services that can be beneficial and to their staff, they
seem to be able to inspire employees to take advantage of these services. As a result, if not
utilized by employees, the program is at risk for a possible budget cut.

17
As consultant for "Methodist Hospital." this case study will examine the current stress
management program designed by the leadership team. The objective of this study will be to
compare the current management program with other programs determining which will be best
for the company. These options will be implemented immediately allowing employees to utilize
them now in the present and in the future to manage work-stress issues that may arise. The case
study will take into account options that business savvy and cost efficient. If needed, in the future
an evaluation of the options will take place determining the need for adjustment.

STUDYMODE, JULY-20 In a perfect world, violence, plane crashes floods and other disasters
would not occur. Disease and illness would be non-existent. Emergency medical services would
not have a basis for fruition. Unfortunately, the world is not perfect place. EMT's and other EMS
workers are vital to all societies globally. According to the American College of Emergency
Physicians, the definition of an emergency services is, "Emergency services are those health care
services provided to evaluate and treat medical conditions of recent onset and severity that would
lead a prudent layperson, possessing an average knowledge of medicine and health, to believe
that urgent and/ or unscheduled medical care is required." The following pages will illustrate the
struggles of an emergency medical technician and other emergency medical service workers.

JAINMAMTA, OCTOBER 2011 In today's world of competition every other company in the
market wants to be the one company in its industry, country and also globally. This is a good
sign of growth and development in the economic aspect but has any personnel of the big giant
companies paid attention in solving the biggest problem prevailing in their company which is
"stress" experienced by their biggest assets of the company that is their work force. Yes when
companies move and spread their wings wide across the global the organizational changes
creates stress.

Due to the uncertain environment characterized by time pressure, increasing workloads,


mergers, restructuring large number of employees are overworked and stressed. Stress can be
defined as a lively circumstance in which people face constraints, opportunities, or loss of
something they desire and for which the consequence is both unpredictable as well as crucial.

18
Stress is the response of people to the ureasonable excessive pressure or demands placed on
them.
Stress is not always negative. It may also bring out the best in individuals at times. It may
induce an individual to discover innovative and smarter way of doing things. This positive
dimension of stress is called as esters. But usually, the term stress has a negative implication and
this negative aspect of stress is termed as distress. For instance - When a subordinate is Harassed
or warned by his superior, unhappiness of unsuitable job, etc. We can say that "Stress causes
some people to break, and other to break records." The Stress can be managed, however by
practicing some stress busters. You can minimize stress on the job for yourself and your
employees with attention to environment, work load and job security. This paper focuses on the
causes of stress at work place, factors and recommends effective strategies for the HR.

CHAPTER-3
CONCEPTUAL
FRAMEWORK OF
INDUSTRY
CHAPTER -III
3.1 INDUSTRY PROFILE
Introduction
The Indian auto industry is one of the largest in the world. The industry accounts for 7.1 per cent
of the country's Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The Two Wheelers segment with 80 per cent
market share is the leader of the Indian Automobile owing to a growing middle class and a
young population. Moreover, the growing interest of the companies in exploring the rural
markets further aided the growth of the sector. The overall percentage vehicle (PV) segment has
14 per cent market share.
India is also a prominent auto exporter and has strong export growth expectations for the near
future. In April-March 2017 exports of PV and Commercial Vehicles (CV) registered a growth
of 16.20 per cent and 4.99 per cent respectively, over April-March 2016. In addition, several
initiates by the government of India and the major automobile players in the Indian market are
expected to make India a leader in the 2W and Four Wheeler (4W) market in the world by 2021.

Market Size
Production of passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, three wheelers and two wheelers grew at
5.41 per cent in FY17 to 25,316.044 vehicles in FY16. The sales of passenger, commercial
vehicles and two wheeler grew by 9.23 per cent, 4,16 per cent and 6.89 per cent respectively,
during the period of April-March 2017.
India's electric vehicles (EV) sales increased 37.5 per cent to 22.000 units during FY 2015 16
and are poised to rise further on the back of cheaper energy storage costs and the Government of
India's vision to see six million electric and hybrid vehicles in India by 2021

Investment
