Abstract
Occupational stress can be characterized as the physiological and emotional responses that transpire when individuals perceive a disparity between their work obligations and their abilities and resources to fulfill these obligations. The police play a crucial role in upholding laws, regulations, and standards within society. In performing these duties, their responsibilities expose them to various mental health challenges, such as stress and anxiety. Data was gathered from 300 police constables (an equal distribution of males and females) aged between 25 to 40 years through a random sampling method. The Occupational Stress Index (Srivastava and Singh, 1981) and the Work-Family Conflict Scale (Carlson, Kacmar, and Williams, 2000) were employed to gather the data. Results were derived using a t-test, which indicated that male and female police constables significantly differ in terms of occupational stress. Female police constables exhibited higher levels of occupational stress compared to their male counterparts, while no significant differences were noted in work-family conflict and its related variables.
