1.2 Statement of the Problem
Often times some employees could find

capable of handling. They suffer from raised stress levels which can be
detrimental to an employee’s emotional and physical responses, thus,

Furnham, & Cooper, 1996). Research has linked work instability to
role ambiguity and role conflict (Chang, 2008) and indicated that
certain factors, such as work overload and poor working conditions often
result in negative mental and physical health consequences for
employees (Murphy, Cooper, & Payne, 1988). According to Schabracq

increased absenteeism, and low quality products and services. Lack of
