Summary: | Psychological strain was found to have a substantial positive correlation with productivity loss, indicating that increased psychological strain might result in increased productivity loss. Additionally, employees' mental health issues lead to lower productivity. Thus, there is an obvious need to manage psychological strain to alleviate the cost of individual and organizational productivity loss. The goal of this review paper is to examine the link between psychological stress and productivity loss, as well as to identify the multifaceted elements that contribute to psychological stress. According to the findings of this study, psychological strains consist of multiple aspects. This shows that the definition of psychological strain could be expanded to encompass a variety of aspects that best explain the consequences of workplace stressors. The multiple study sites, the variability of occupations, and the predictive variables that influence most dimensions of psychological strain are all probable reasons. This paper advances human resource management research by providing reviews on a multidimensional measure of psychological strain that might be used as a focus for future research. In conclusion, to reduce individual and organizational losses, it is necessary to tackle the underlying causes of stress that result in psychological strain at work. © 2024 American Institute of Physics Inc..
