Stress unfortunately has become an unavoidable part of our today’s industrialized and urbanized society. Even though stress is an integral part of our organizational life, its implications seemingly are more on those who lead a regimented life for obvious reasons. An extensive literature review was done in this area of stress to study the researches done till date. A further probe was done deeply to unearth the researches which have studied the effects of stress in the employees. After pilot testing through questionnaire, a final structured closed questionnaire having factors and components of effects of stress was floated for primary data collection from the police officers in the rank of Sub Inspector and Assistant Sub Inspector in the Barak valley of southern Assam. Statistical analysis was done on the dataset using SPSS 23 and it yielded some useful results. The findings showed that the Physiological factor leads to maximum stress followed by Psychological factor and Behavioral factor. The relative worth of the components and factors was studied. The demographic variables like age of the respondents, rank of the officers, no. of dependants, etc were also correlated with their responses. The conclusion of the research work is that the policy makers and employers should understand the relative worth of the effects of stress on the police officers and try to reduce them in some way possible.
