“…Thus, future challenge–hindrance research should be further expanded to include the integration of appraisal and coping processes, and may, of course, look for further moderating mechanisms such as personal preferences/characteristics, available coping resources, and success expectations (cf. Carver & Scheier, 1998; Lazarus & Folkman, 1984; Newness, 2011). To achieve this result, in formulating or selecting items for measuring challenge–hindrance demands, attention should be paid to a clear linguistic separation between demands, appraisals, and coping.…”

Within the workplace, time constraints that create deadline pressure may jeopardize employees' goal attainment. In an attempt to overcome this stressful situation, employees may increase their efforts. We examine two strategies that are assumed to be stress reactions (coping) under conditions of high time pressure: working faster and working longer. We propose that these strategies moderate the relationship between time pressure and adverse health effects, as well as work engagement. In our daily diary study, 122 public service employees provided ratings over five consecutive working days. Multilevel analyses revealed that time pressure relates positively to irritation only in conditions of working faster and is unrelated to irritation in the absence of this strategy. It relates positively to engagement only when employees do not work longer, whereas it is unrelated to work engagement in conditions of working longer. We conclude that using the strategies of working faster or working longer is not recommended to overcome daily time pressure. This study contributes to the refinement of the challenge-hindrance framework by identifying boundary conditions of challenge and hindrance effects of time pressure. In addition, this study provides the first empirical evidence about the daily role of "working faster" and "working longer," conceptualized as a maladaptive coping mechanism.

Stress is a popular topic these days. In the workplace, stress is something that almost every worker experiences. It is not simply the notion of physical labor but also the wear and tear of work on a person’s mental health. Long-term and extreme occupational stress can be a severe threat to the psychological well-being of an employee. The growing stress among healthcare workers prompted the researcher to become engaged, sensitive, and concerned about the topic’s significance. Hence, the researcher made a competent effort to determine the effect of occupational stress on the psychological well-being of healthcare workers in General Santos City. The respondents were chosen from the Tertiary Hospitals of General Santos using convenience sampling given that the healthcare workers work in a hectic and demanding environment. Data were gathered through a survey questionnaire disseminated using a link to a Google form. Results revealed that healthcare workers have average levels of occupational stress and moderate levels of psychological well-being. The level of occupational stress of healthcare workers significantly influences their psychological well-being. Conclusively, the findings revealed a significant relationship between occupational stress and psychological well-being. A moderate positive correlation between these variables suggests that as occupational stress increases, the adverse effect on psychological well-being among healthcare workers of General Santos City tends to increase as well. Since the relationship is moderate, it means that while there is a positive relationship between occupational stress and psychological well-being by 35.8%, other factors by 64.2% may also influence the psychological well-being of healthcare workers. Based on the findings, a ‘primary-organizational’ and ‘secondary-organizational’ level of stress management intervention has been crafted for the healthcare workers of General Santos City.
