Abstract

Workplace stress is a troubling health issue that should be avoided by taking the necessary precautions because it could have major socioeconomic repercussions in sustainable urban areas. In Ludhiana’s industrial sector, workplace stress significantly affects employees’ health and urban sustainability. Rotating shift workers face a 2-fold risk of stress (Adjusted odds ratio=2.37, 95% CI=1.41-3.41), exacerbated by inadequate social support (Adjusted odds ratio=3.71, 95% CI=2.92-5.12) and moderate social support (Adjusted odds ratio=3.11, 95% CI=1.81-4.92). Salary dissatisfaction also increases stress among women (Adjusted odds ratio=2.57, 95% CI=1.32-2.97). Proactive stress management is essential to maintain productivity and prevent workforce turnover.
