Abstract
Occupational stress poses a threat to people's health and in the same time on institution'
s health. Stress from an institutional perspective is a very important phenomenon that can
jeopardize the health of individuals and lead to physical, psychological and even social
dysfunction. Occupational stress is of paramount importance in psychological research
and has been presented as one of the health concerns of individuals in the 20th century by
the World Health Organization (WHO); it was later classified as one of the most prevalent
epidemics of the same organization. In this paper we will present a conceptual structure of
stress, and then review the five major theories of occupational stress (Taxonomy of Stress
Theories). Classifications are useful tools to simplify and organize our thinking about
issues and events. Classification provides us a thinking structure to impose framework and
meaning of the complexity. In so doing, the classifications should simplify matters only as
much as they are required and no more, and should remain open for review and
amendment.
