workers and organizational performance. However, it is unclear what sources of stress are
affecting workers at Goldeneyes garments and how the company is supporting stress
management among its workers.

The problem addressed in this study is the need to understand stress management among
workers at Goldeneyes garments in Tirupur. Specifically, the study aims to identify the sources
of stress among workers, the coping mechanisms they use, and the company's support for
stress management. By addressing these issues, the study can provide insights for Goldeneyes
garments to improve employee well-being and organizational performance.
1.3. REVIEW OF LITERATURE

(Henderson, 2017): Stress in the workplace can lead to negative physical and psychological
health outcomes, such as anxiety, depression, and cardiovascular disease.

(Leka & Houdmont, 2010): Stess can also lead to decreased job satisfaction and performance,
as well as increased absenteeism and turnover.

(Cox & Griffiths, 2010): Work-related stress can be caused by a variety of factors, including
workload, job insecurity, lack of control, interpersonal conflict, and organizational change.

(Lazarus & Folkman, 1984): The transactional model of stress proposes that stress arises from a
mismatch between job demands and resources, and that coping mechanisms can be used to
mitigate the negative effects of stress

(Folkman & Lazarus, 1984): Coping strategies can be divided into problem-focused strategies
(e.g., time managem ent, delegation) and emotion-focused strategies (e.g., relaxation
techniques, social support).

(Chiesa & Serretti, 2009): Mindfulness-based interventions have been found to be effective in
reducing stress and improving well-being in the workplace.

(van Uffelen et al., 2013): Exercise has also been shown to be effective in reducing stress and
improving health outcomes in the workplace.

(Halbesleben & Buckley, 2004): Social support from supervisors and co-workers can be an
important factor in mitigating the negative effects of stress.

(Karasek & Theorell, 1990): The demand-control-support model proposes that job demands,
control, and social support can interact to affect stress and health outcomes.

(Bakker & Demerouti, 2007): The job demands-resources model proposes that job resources,
such as autonomy, social support, and feedback, can buffer the negative effects of job demands
on stress and performance.

(Leka & Houdmont, 2010): Workplace interventions to reduce stress can include organizational
change, training, and support programs.
(Lerner & Henke, 2008): Employee assistance programs (EAPs) can provide confidential
counseling and other support services to employees to help them manage stress and other
personal problems.

(Allen et al., 2013): ork-family conflict can be a significant source of stress for employees, and
flexible work arrangements, such as telecommuting and flexible scheduling, can be effective in
reducing this stress.

(Cavanaugh et al., 2000): The impact of stress on employees can also depend on individual
factors, such as personality traits, coping styles, and social support networks.

(Mayer et al., 2008): Emotional intelligence, or the ability to understand and manage one's own
emotions and the emotions of others, has been found to be positively associated with well-
being and job performance.

(Tims et al., 2012): Job crafting, or the process of actively modifying one's job to increase
resources and reduce demands, can be an effective strategy for managing stress and improving
job satisfaction.

(Donaldson et al., 2015): Positive psychology interventions, such as gratitude exercises and
strengths-based coaching, can also be effective in reducing stress and improving well-being in
the workplace.

(Maslach & Jackson, 1981): Burnout, or chronic work-related stress, can lead to emotional
exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced personal accomplishment.

(Bakker & Demerouti, 2007): The job demands-resources model can also be applied to
burnout, with job resources playing a protective role against burnout.

project, while secondary data refers to data that has been collected previously by other
researchers or organizations.

In this study, primary data can be collected through a self-administered questionnaire that is
distributed to workers at Goldeneyes garments Tirupur. The questionnaire can be designed to
collect data on workers' perceptions of stress, their coping strategies, and the effectiveness of
those strategies. Demographic information can also be collected to allow for the examination of
differences in stress and stress management strategies based on demographic characteristics.

SECONDARY DATA: Secondary data sources can include academic journals, books, and reports
from government agencies and industry associations. These sources can provide information on
the causes and effects of stress in the garment manufacturing industry, as well as best practices
for managing stress in the workplace. Secondary data can also be used to provide context for
the findings from the primary data collection.
Overall, a combination of primary and secondary data can provide a comprehensive
understanding of stress management among workers at Goldeneyes garments Tirupur. The
primary data can provide specific insights into the experiences and perceptions of workers,
while secondary data can provide a broader context for the findings and help to identify
potential solutions for improving stress management in the workplace.

1.7.2. TYPES OF RESEARCH - DESCRIPTIVE:

Descriptive research is a type of research that aims to describe a phenomenon, situation, or

group of people in detail. The purpose of descriptive research is to provide a comprehensive
and accurate account of the characteristics, behaviors, or attitudes of a particular population or
phenomenon. Descriptive research is often used to gather information that can be used for
decision-making, program planning, or policy development.

There are several types of descriptive research methods, including:

Surveys: Surveys involve collecting data through questionnaires or interviews. Surveys can be
used to collect information on a wide range of topics, such as attitudes, beliefs, behaviors, and
experiences.

Observational studies: Observational studies involve observing and recording the behavior of
people or animals in their natural environment. This type of research is often used to study the
behavior of groups or individuals in specific settings, such as schools, hospitals, or workplaces.

Case studies: Case studies involve in-depth analysis of a particular case or situation. Case
studies can provide detailed information on a particular issue or problem and are often used in
fields such as medicine, psychology, and social work.

Cross-sectional studies: Cross-sectional studies involve collecting data from a sample of

individuals at a single point in time. This type of research can be used to describe the
prevalence of a particular condition or behavior in a population.

Longitudinal studies: Longitudinal studies involve collecting data from the same group of
individuals over a period of time. This type of research can be used to track changes in
behavior, attitudes, or other variables over time.

Overall, descriptive research methods are useful for providing a detailed and accurate
description of a particular phenomenon or population. These methods can be used to inform
decision-making, program planning, and policy development.
1.7.3. SAMPLING SIZE:

Determining the appropriate sample size for a research study is important because it affects the
accuracy and precision of the results. The sample size should be large enough to provide
reliable and valid results, but not so large that it is impractical or inefficient to collect the data.

My sampling size is 100.

The appropriate sample size for a research study depends on several factors, including the
research question, the level of precision required, the variability of the population, and the
desired level of confidence in the results. In general, larger sample sizes are needed for studies
with more complex research questions or higher levels of precision.

One commonly used method for determining sample size is based on statistical power analysis.
Statistical power analysis involves calculating the sample size needed to detect a significant
effect size with a certain level of power and level of significance. The effect size is the
magnitude of the difference between groups or the strength of the relationship between
variables.

Another method for determining sample size is based on rules of thumb, such as using a sample
size of at least 30 for each group being compared in a study. This approach may be appropriate
for studies with simple research questions or low levels of precision.

Ultimately, the appropriate sample size for a research study depends on the specific research
question and the resources available for data collection. It is important to carefully consider the
sample size during the planning phase of a research study to ensure that the results are reliable
and valid.

1.7.4. TYPES OF SAMPLE:

There are several types of sampling methods that can be used in research, including:
Random sampling: In random sampling, every member of the population has an equal chance
of being selected for the sample. This type of sampling is often used when the population is
large and homogeneous.

Stratified sampling: Stratified sampling involves dividing the population into subgroups or
strata and then selecting a sample from each stratum. This type of sampling is useful when
there are known differences within the population that need to be represented in the sample.

Cluster sampling: Cluster sampling involves dividing the population into clusters or groups and
then selecting a sample of clusters to represent the population. This type of sampling is useful
when the population is widely dispersed or difficult to access.

Convenience sampling: Convenience sampling involves selecting participants who are readily
available or easy to access. This type of sampling is often used when time or resources are
limited.

Purposive sampling: Purposive sampling involves selecting participants who have specific
characteristics or experiences that are relevant to the research question. This type of sampling
is often used in qualitative research.

Snowball sampling: Snowball sampling involves selecting participants who can then help to
identify and recruit additional participants. This type of sampling is often used when the
population is difficult to access or identify.

Each type of sampling method has advantages and disadvantages, and the choice of sampling
method will depend on the research question, the population being studied, and the available
resources. It is important to select a sampling method that is appropriate for the research
question and that provides a representative sample of the population.

1.7.5. TOOLS USED FOR ANALYSIS:

 CHAPTER-3
THEORITICAL FRAMEWORK OF THE STUDY

3.1. INTRODUCTION OF STRESS MANAGEMENT:

Stress is a natural response of the body to demanding situations, and it can be beneficial in
certain situations by motivating us to take action and respond to challenges. However, chronic
or excessive stress can have negative effects on physical and mental health, including anxiety,
depression, and a weakened immune system.
Stress management involves techniques and strategies that aim to reduce stress levels and
promote well-being. These strategies can include things like exercise, relaxation techniques,
time management, self-care, and seeking social support. Effective stress management can help
individuals cope better with challenging situations, increase resilience, and improve overall
health and quality of life.
 It's important to recognize that stress management is not a one-size-fits-all approach and what
works for one person may not work for another. It's important to experiment with different
techniques and find what works best for you. In addition, seeking the help of a mental health
professional may be beneficial for those experiencing chronic or severe stress.

3.2. MEANING OF STRESS:

Stress is a physiological and psychological response of the body to demanding situations,

whether real or perceived. It is a natural response that prepares the body to take action and
respond to challenges. Stress can be caused by a variety of factors, including work-related
issues, financial problems, relationship difficulties, health concerns, and major life changes.
When we experience stress, our bodies release stress hormones such as cortisol and
adrenaline, which trigger the "fight or flight" response. This response prepares the body to
react quickly to perceived threats by increasing heart rate, blood pressure, and breathing rate.
While stress can be beneficial in certain situations by helping us to perform well under
pressure, chronic or excessive stress can have negative effects on physical and mental health. It
can lead to a range of health problems, including anxiety, depression, insomnia, high blood
pressure, and a weakened immune system.
Effective stress management involves identifying sources of stress and implementing strategies
to reduce stress levels and promote well-being. These strategies can include things like
exercise, relaxation techniques, time management, self-care, and seeking social support.

3.3. CAUSES OF STRESS:

Stress can be caused by a variety of factors, including:
Work-related issues: High workloads, tight deadlines, conflicts with colleagues, job insecurity,
and job dissatisfaction can all contribute to work-related stress.
Financial problems: Financial difficulties, such as debt, job loss, or unexpected expenses, can
cause significant stress.
Relationship difficulties: Relationship problems, such as conflicts with a partner, family
member, or friend, can cause stress.
Major life changes: Major life changes, such as moving to a new city, starting a new job, or
getting married, can cause stress.
Health concerns: Health problems, chronic illness, or caring for someone with a health
condition can cause stress.
Environmental factors: Environmental factors such as noise, pollution, and overcrowding can
also contribute to stress.
Personal factors: Personal factors, such as negative self-talk, unrealistic expectations, and lack
of assertiveness, can contribute to stress.
It's important to recognize that what causes stress for one person may not be stressful for
another. Additionally, certain factors may be stressful for different individuals based on their
personal circumstances, experiences, and coping strategies. Effective stress management
involves identifying sources of stress and implementing strategies to reduce stress levels and
promote well-being.

3.4. SYMPTOMS OF DISTRESS:

The signs or symptoms of work-related stress can be physical, psychological and behavioural.
Physical symptoms include:

 Fatigue
 Muscular tension
 Headaches
 Heart palpitations
 Sleeping difficulties, such as insomnia
 Gastrointestinal upsets, such as diarrhoea or constipation
 Dermatological disorders.

Psychological symptoms include:

 Depression
 Anxiety
 Discouragement
 Irritability
 Pessimism
 Feelings of being overwhelmed and unable to cope
 Cognitive difficulties, such as a reduced ability to concentrate or make decisions.
Behavioural symptoms include:

 An increase in sick days or absenteeism

 Aggression
 Diminished creativity and initiative
 A drop in work performance
 Problems with interpersonal relationships
 Mood swings and irritability
 Lower tolerance of frustration and impatience
 Disinterest
 Isolation.

3.5. COMMON SOURCE OF STRESS WORK:

Certain factors tend to go hand-in-hand with work-related stress. Some common workplace
stressors are:
Low salaries Excessive workloads Few opportunities for growth or advancement Work that isn’t
engaging or challenging Lack of social support Not having enough control over job-related
decisions Conflicting demands or unclear performance expectations

3.6. EFFECTS OF UNCONTROLLED STRESS:

Work-related stress doesn’t just disappear when you head home for the day. When stress
persists, it can take a toll on your health and well-being.
A stressful work environment can contribute to problems such as headache, stomachache,
sleep disturbances, short temper, and difficulty concentrating. Chronic stress can result in
anxiety, insomnia, high blood pressure, and a weakened immune system. It can also contribute
to health conditions such as depression, obesity, and heart disease. Compounding the problem,
people who experience excessive stress often deal with it in unhealthy ways, such as
overeating, eating unhealthy foods, smoking cigarettes, or abusing drugs and alcohol.

3.7. CAUSES OF WORK-RELATED STRESS:

Some of the factors that commonly cause work-related stress include:

 Long hours
 Heavy workload
 Changes within the organisation
 Tight deadlines
 Changes to duties
 Job insecurity
 Lack of autonomy
 Boring work
 Insufficient skills for the job
 Over-supervision
 Inadequate working environment
 Lack of proper resources
 Lack of equipment
 Few promotional opportunities
 Harassment
 Discrimination
 Poor relationships with colleagues or bosses
 Crisis incidents, such as an armed hold-up or workplace death.
