Abstract:
In the present scenario, everyone is striving to achieve and make use of the opportunities and
resources to its best. Stress has become a part of everyone’s life. In a corporate world, managers
face day to day affairs where stress is inevitable and unavoidable. The purpose of this research
work is to find out whether the factors of Spiritual Intelligence can distinguish the levels of
employee stress and can help managing the level of stress of the employees. Two standardized
questionnaires were used. The Spiritual Intelligence Self Report Inventory (SISRI- 24)
developed by King (2008) was selected to measure the four factors of Spiritual Intelligence of
employees. Secondly, The Occupational Stress Index developed by Srivastava and Singh in
1981 was used to measure the three levels of employee stress. The study was conducted among
300 employees to measure the level of Stress and Spiritual Intelligence of each individual. The
data was analyzed using Wilk’s Lambda and the findings reveal that the factors of Spiritual
Intelligence do not have the ability to distinguish the level of employee stress.
