AB  - Reports on a study which utilized responses from 442 employees
working in 23 different Saudi organizations to assess stress levels and
their differences with respect to nationality (Saudis, Arabs, Asians and
Westerners), age, tenure, type of organization (public, semi‐private,
private), and organizational size (small, medium, large). The findings
suggest that: the main source of stress for employees working in private
organizations is the lack of knowledge about their performance
evaluation results, while this is not the case for employees working in
public organizations; Saudi employees have the highest levels of stress,
with Arabs second, Asians third, while Westerners (Europeans and North
Americans) registered the lowest levels of stress; employees who are
less than 30 years old experience the highest levels of stress;
employees with six‐to‐ten years of experience show the highest levels of
stress; and there is a significant inverse relationship between
educational level and stress level.
