Abstract

Studying men and women and differences between them has long been a topic and goal for researchers and practitioners. Reflecting on this special issue led to important information about the relationship across gender and occupational stress. Women entering the occupational setting is increasing and stressors of the workplace are spreading with the advancement in every domain. For that reason, it is significant to examine gender and occupational stress. Thus, the objective of this chapter is to analyze whether any differences exist between the genders with respect to the effect of occupational stress. This chapter evaluated research relating to the role of gender in workplace stress. A further aim was to review literature related to coping strategies of stress management and gender responses while facing stress at the workplace. This chapter highlighted that there are no clear differences to gender in terms of stress influences; however, experiences, responses, and coping strategies to occupational stress varies person to person.
