More Blessed and Less Stressed at Workplace: The Role of Spirituality in Managing Stress

Abstract

Leaders in organizations have sought to provide a workplace with a less stressful work environment through tailored stress management systems. One of the ways is the essence of personal spirituality and its interaction with workplace spirituality (WS) that enhanced “intrinsic, extrinsic and total work rewards satisfaction”. The quest for strategies and measures influencing workers in stressful workplaces indicates that leaders are concerned about enhancing employee well-being. Consequently, researchers have expressed intrigue about exploring what roles spirituality and stress play in understanding the employees with the propensity to work in a high-stress workplace. Therefore, the current study aims to support the literature on how spirituality handles workplace stress in different working environments. This study provides summarized details and key insights for practitioners and researchers.
