The changes in the nature of job, working environment and organizational behavior would undoubtedly increase the occupational stress of the workers. Work-related stress is a condition arising from the interaction of people and their jobs and characterized by changes within the people that force them to deviate from their normal functioning. Effective management of work-related stress can be achieved under two conditions. First, the individual worker must be able to recognize stressors and understand their consequences and second, organizations must develop stress prevention, as well as stress reduction techniques. One of the factors which increase work-related stress is procrastination. Procrastination considers a self-handicapping behavior that leads to wasted time, poor performance, and increased stress. While procrastination can have different effects on organizational and individual effectiveness, it is imperative for managers to identify the various causes and reasons for procrastination and plan to overcome them. This study is recommended using an experimentally one so that relation between individual's procrastination and work-related stress can be analyzed in order to determine if the findings will be duplicated. © EuroJournals, Inc. 2011.
