Work stress and customer service delivery

Article Abstract:

The existence of various work stressors creates a negligible effect on the quality of service rendered by companies, as shown in an analysis involving 71 service consultants of various ethnic origins. Results derived from these subjects reflected a relatively narrow performance range among employees, which implies that work stressors rarely affect quality of services. In the event of conflicts arising from work-related stress, managers must be able to effect efficient structural and policy changes aimed at promoting employee coordination.
