Abstract:
Today managing conflicts and stresses in organizations became a prudent factor for gearing the journey of organizational success. Due to the fact of inevitability of conflicts and stresses (Gultekin et al.2011) it is vitalto study the factors which affect the level of conflicts and stresses since root cause of the conflicts and stresses are incompatible goals of the individuals (Galtun, 1973).Numerous studies examined the role of personality and its interaction with situational demands to the perceived stress and ways of coping with stress (Costa, Somerfield, & McCrae, 1996). Meanwhile, the studies on work- family conflicts (Greenhaus & Beutell ,1985) elaborated three dimensions; time-based, strain-based, and behavior-based conflicts.
