The beta value, β = 0.251 indicates that when one standard unit of Workplace Environment factor increased, it can be assumed that job stress among the teaching staffs in MRSM will be increased by 0.251 standard unit. It also shows that the more uncondusive the workplace environment, it tends more to stress in their job. However the leadership style, rewards and job stressors are found not to be significantly related to job stress among the teaching staffs from both colleges. 2011 Thesis https://eprints.ums.edu.my/id/eprint/8049/ https://eprints.ums.edu.my/id/eprint/8049/1/mt0000000253.pdf text en public masters Universiti Malaysia Sabah School of Business and Economics
