The negative effect on commitment jeopardizes individual productivity. The purpose of the present study is to determine the indirect effects of occupational stressors on individual productivity through the analysis of commitment variables. The respondents were selected utilizing the proportionate stratified random sampling method. A total of 300 questionnaires were collected from the academic administrators of 5 Malaysian research universities. The research instrument used for the stress and commitment components is adopted from the ASSET (A Shortened Stress Evaluation Tool). Meanwhile, the productivity component utilized the criteria employed by the annual performance appraisal of the research universities. Occupational stressors are analyzed dimensionally, while commitment and individual productivity are analyzed aggregately. The results show that certain occupational stressors are significantly, but negatively, related to commitment, including work relationships; work-life balance; overload; control; resources and communication; and pay and benefits. The results also indicate that certain occupational stressors are significantly, but negatively, related to individual productivity, including work relationships; work-life balance; job security; control; resources and communication; and pay and benefits. Finally, the present study finds that commitment partially mediates the aforementioned relationships.

Ergonomics and Stress at Workplace: Engineering Contributions to Social Sciences /jurnalpengurusan/article/ergonomics-and-stress-at-workplace-engineering-contributions-to-social-sciences/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=ergonomics-and-stress-at-workplace-engineering-contributions-to-social-sciences Sun, 09 Oct 2022 16:43:54 +0000 /jurnalpengurusan/?post_type=article&p=4671 The present study explores ergonomic workstation factors to explain work stress outcomes. Proportionate stratified random sampling method is utilized to collect data from 500 production operators. The production operators are employees of 11 manufacturing electronics organizations that joined Malaysian International Chamber of Commerce and Industry (MICCI). The data samples are based upon self-administered questionnaires. Following data analysis, ergonomically designed workstations are proven to be a significant strategy to help organizations minimize work stress outcomes. Additionally, the multiple regression analysis shows that ergonomic workstation element collectively has significant relationship with work stress outcomes.
