Abstract: There is an increasing attention to identify the occupational stressors on clinical performance among nurses due to the shortfall of paramedical staff especially nurses to an alarming extent globally. We develop a research framework to examine the impact of occupational stress on nurses’ clinical performance. A cross-sectional research design was used for data collection (n= 251). Data collection was accomplished by conducting a survey as a method. Data were analyzed through SPSS. The results indicate that occupational stress is negatively correlated with clinical performance among nurses. Work demand, work-family conflicts, occupational hazards, and occupational issues have a significant impact on nurses’ clinical performance. Moreover, interpersonal relationships and workplace violence are found to be the insignificant impact on clinical performance. Demographic variables like marital status and computer skills have significant differences in occupational stress and clinical performance. Married nurses have a higher level of occupational stress and lower level clinical performance as compared to unmarried. Nurses with computer skills have low occupational stress and higher clinical performance than those without computer skills. The results of the study have theoretical as well as practical implications, needed to be addressed on a priority basis.
