PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to examine the influence of mindfulness on organizational role stress (ORS) based on the Monitor Acceptance Theory (MAT) perspective.Design/methodology/approachThis study is based on a cross-sectional data analysis collected from 137 employees working at an Indian IT organization located in Bangalore (India). ORS and MAAS scales have been used for measuring ORS and mindfulness, respectively.FindingsOverall, the study findings have indicated a negative relationship (r = −0.588) between mindfulness (M) and ORS. First, both personal inadequacy (PI) and self-role distance (SRD) are found to be predominantly impacted by M, whereas both role erosion (RE) and role overload (RO) appear to be less affected by mindfulness. Second, SRD appears to be the highest ORS sub-dimension among IT employees. Third, building on the extant literature, it can be inferred that “no one size fits all”, ORS is both organization and context specific.Originality/valueThis study pioneers to establish empirical evidence between M and ORS. Training employees on M can help in effectively handling ORS.

Optimisation of stress in accordance with one’s personality and environment can lead to best performance. But if stress becomes distress it can cause major handicap in one’s level of performance and productivity. The present study was conducted on middle level managers from Government, Public and Private sectors. They were administered Udai Pareek’s Organizational Role Stress (ORS) and Role Efficacy Scale. The results show that there was no significant difference in these three sectors on Role Efficacy - all the ten dimensions. But as far as stress was concerned, the public sector managers experienced significantly higher stress on Role Erosion and Self-Role Conflict followed by Government and least in the private sector. As far as the correlations were concerned, all the ten sub-scales of ORS were significantly negatively related to the overall index of Role Efficacy and most of its sub-scales.
