Occupational Stress in the Multicultural Workplace

Abstract  

Occupational stress is a well researched topic leading to the development of strong, viable models of workplace stress. However,
there is a gap in the literature with respect to the applicability of this research to specific cultural groups, in particular
those of immigrant status. The present paper reviews the extant literature regarding occupational stress from a multicultural
perspective, evaluates the usefulness for existing models in the multicultural context, and discusses current issues with
respect to increasing multiculturalism in the work environment. The authors conclude that workforce diversity is emerging
as a pressing issue of organizational life and consequently, that future research needs to continue investigating whether
current knowledge regarding workplace stress is fitting with the multicultural diversity of the present-day working population.
