The study investigated the prevalence of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder PTSDand its impact on job satisfaction and perceived job performance in faculty members of private universities in Kabul, Afghanistan. The country has been affected by wars since 1979 USSR invasion, then civil war and now by ongoing war on terror. Utilizing questionnaires as data collection tool, 126 complete responses were received from six universities. Using a threshold score with help from literature, it was found out that in 65.08% respondents PTSD prevailed. The results showed that PTSD has significant negative impacts on job satisfaction and perceived job performance. Conclusively, the study suggests some recommendations for policy makers, especially the concerned institutions of the government of Afghanistan and the management of universities. These recommendations would help the concerned authorities to come up with certain solution plans, policies and strategies to cope up with the problem and reduce the level of PTSD and enhanced the psychological wellbeing of the faculty. This in return would help them attract some experienced professionals from across the globe and retain the current pool of talent for providing quality education to the citizens of Afghanistan which can help in paving the way to an educated and developed Afghanistan. Facilitating their safety and security can lead to a safe and secure mind without PTSD that can lead to increased productivity, loyalty and commitment which ultimately contribute to achieving organizational short and long run goals
