Abstract
Stress and burnout do have impacts on performance of individuals in the organizations. The city police department of Pakistan is facing law and order challenges especially so under the adverse security environments in the country for the last about one and half decade. Security concerns and their subsequent fallouts ultimately land on the police directly and indirectly. Persistence of such an environment has deteriorated the situation where additional measures have to be put in place. How does ‘stress and burnout’ impact the performance of individuals is the basic theme of this paper. One city district was taken into consideration for the purpose of this research. Data collection was carried out with the assurance of maintaining its confidentiality. It turned out to be fair collection, one cannot claim to be 100% correct; however, its final interpretation and analysis came out to be synonymous to apparent perceptions on ground. Stress and burnout has retarding impacts on the performance of police employees with varying intensity. The paper also suggests remedial measures to overcome the drawbacks.
