Abstract: Occupational stress is known as stress at work. It occurs when there is discrepancy between the demands of the work and that of individuals. It is a serious work hazard which has the power to bring crisis on teachers. There may be various reasons for occupational stress like personality, general outlook on life, Problem solving abilities, and social and family support system, etc. Hence the present study tries to find out the relationship between occupational stress and family environment of teachers.
