The purpose of the study was to determine the relationship between stress
management and workforce productivity of Amol Industrial Park located in
Mazandaran Province. The total population size in the research was 250 from top
managers, middle managers and supervisors responsible in the before-mentioned
Industrial Park and the sample size was determined through Morgan sample
population volume table (n=150). For data collection, Background Information
questionnaire, Stress Management and Workforce Productivity questionnaires were
used. As for analyzing the data gained after collecting the questionnaires;
Descriptive and inferential statistics were used. Pearson Correlation Test, One
Sample T Test, Independent Samples Test and Regression Tests were used for
hypothesis testing.
The results from analyzing the Sub Hypotheses of the research demonstrated that
there was a positive and significant correlation between respectful and responsible
managers (P=0.005), Managing and communicating existing and future work
(P=0.002), Managing the individual within the team (P=0.01), Reasoning/managing
difficult situations, (P=0.004) and workforce productivity in this research. As for
analyzing the Main Hypotheses of the research, the results demonstrated that there
was a positive and significant correlation between stress management and workforce
productivity in this research. The results also demonstrated that there was no
significant difference between the opinions of male and female managers about the
level of workforce productivity and stress management being put in practice in the
before-mentioned Industrial Park. And finally the results indicate that the level of
workforce productivity and stress management being put in practice in the beforementioned
Industrial Park is not under the influence of any of Individual
characteristics of managers (e.g. Age, Education Level, Job Title, Employment
