Abstract: Pakistan's banking sector is at the forefront of digital transformation, but this progress comes with a hidden cost-techno-stress. Our study, designed with your professional needs, explores how information overload, work-life intrusion, and other tech-related anxieties impact employee well-being and commitment. We examine the prevalence of techno-stress and its links to negative thinking, emotional detachment, and career satisfaction. We aim to develop practical strategies to reduce techno-stress, fostering employee well-being and organizational effectiveness. Using surveys, we analyze how different forms of rumination affect mental health and productivity. We propose interventions to boost employee satisfaction and organizational efficiency by minimizing negative tech stressors and promoting healthy detachment. We analyze the complex relationships between techno-stress and related factors through rigorous methodology. This research underscores the need for context-specific solutions in Pakistan's banking sector, offering valuable insights and actionable recommendations to cultivate a supportive work environment that thrives alongside technological advancements.
