Abstract
The current study examined the impact of organizational stressors on role performance and job satisfaction. After briefly studying the relationship between the internal and external stressors, a comprehensive and integrated model was built. In addition, moderating role of social support and mediated role of personality are discussed in the model. Sample of 730 employees of banks and financial institutions were selected as a sample. Our findings revealed that the media aggression, terrorism and economic stress have positive association with job stress. Internal stressors have a critical role in contributing towards employee stress. Out of six internal stressors three were accepted and three were rejected due to insignificant results. Media aggression, terrorism and economic stress also have direct association with job stress. The tests verified that personality type partially mediates the relationship between stressors and outcomes. On the other hand it was found that the social support dampens the relationship between job stress and performance.
