Etiological factors of work dysfunctions (specific work dysfunctions related to
anxiety, stress, personality problems, and certain work attitudes, while problems
such as absenteeism, accidents etc. may also be related to emotional problems
or the interaction between employees and the work environment)
• factors in individual (same as psychopathology)
• work related (physical and social work design)

(a) In your discussion you should provide an analysis of etiology evident in
the EGI context and substantiated with relevant theory (provide this
discussion in 2 pages).
Workplace stress can be defined as the change in one's physical or mental state in
response to workplaces that pose an appraised challenge or threat to that employee.
Research has shown that there are a number of factors that contribute to workplace
stress. These factors include a toxic work environment, negative workload, isolation,
types of hours worked, role conflict, role ambiguity, lack of autonomy, career
development barriers, difficult relationships with administrators and/ or coworkers,
managerial bullying, harassment, and organizational climate. Should the stressors
continue, the employee is at significant risk of developing physiological and
psychological disorders that can lead to increased absenteeism, organizational
dysfunction, and decreased work productivity. Intervention strategies are discussed to
help managers provide support and intervention to employees coping with workplace
stress.
