Office stress develops when demands on employees are greater than their ability to cope with them. Because women being female, their career objectives can be influenced. It can be difficult for women to advance their careers and careers as doctors in various faculties because they lack the inner motivation to overcome the many challenges that stand in their way, identification of protective factors for resiliency and overcoming the barriers for women to achieve their academic success beside their family and life responsibilities.
