Abstract

Work stress and uncivil behaviors can have profound social, physical, and mental consequences on employees, hindering both individual and organizational performance and growth. Despite numerous studies focusing on stress reduction and its impact on job performance and turnover intention, there is a need to explore these dynamics specifically in the context of the Bikanerian hospitality industry. This study, involving 367 working adults, aims to investigate the influence of job stress on employee job performance and turnover intention. The research findings reveal a positive and significant relationship between emotional exhaustion (EE) and job performance (JP). Job Stress (JS) exhibits a significant negative relationship with job performance but a positive correlation with turnover intention and workplace incivility. Additionally, the study highlights a positive and significant relationship between workplace incivility (WI) and Turnover Intention (TI), while workplace incivility does not significantly relate to job performance. The implications suggest that managers should establish informal standards for workplace behaviors and encourage employees to adopt coping strategies for work stress, ultimately improving job performance. This study contributes novel insights into addressing job stress and developing effective employee strategies to mitigate workplace incivility and turnover intention.
