The interaction effect between job stress factors and job satisfaction among managers

The purpose of the present research was to investigate the interaction effect between job stress factors and job satisfaction factors among managers. A sample of 140 managers of different levels from 3 Oil Material Industry was randomly chosen as participants in this research. In order to measure research variables (job stress and job satisfaction), three instruments namely Symptom of Stress, Sources of Stress (Davis, Robins & Mac lee) and Job Descriptive Indexes (Smith, Kendall & Hullin) were used. The results showed that the rate of job satisfaction factors had an interaction effect on job stress factors. 49% of variances of job stress were predicted by job satisfaction factors, while 52% of the variances were predicted by job stress factors among managers. The results suggest that if the managersʹ roles and duties were clarified, so that alienation and lower load role were prevented, managerʹ degree of stress would decrease.
