Occupational stress is a common phenomenon that is pervasive in every industry. The domains of stress, especially in the banking sector, consist of the demand of inter role performance, role stagnation, role expectation, conflict of role, role erosion, role overload, role isolation, personal inadequacy, role ambiguity, role distance and resource inadequacy. The work stress in the banking industry occurs because of the effects on one’s understanding of one’s working atmosphere, strengths, opportunities, potential, threats and limitations, while performing a designated role. A gender based study was conducted among 50 bank employees in Kottayam district, Kerala. The gender was taken as an independent variable and stress id taken a dependent variable for the study. The study analysed turbulence, heavy workload and long working hours that have become the norm in the industry. Different elements of stress led to a decline in personal health, relations with colleagues and dissatisfaction with life itself, which affected efficiency and productivity. The study revealed that both the male and female respondents were affected with overload, responsibility, lack of participation, unreasonable work pressure, poor peer relations, intrinsic impoverishment, low status, strenuous working conditions and poor results. The level of significance(p<.05) and the available scores were more that the significance value, except the values of role ambiguity and role conflict.

Presently the competition was going on sky high in the banking industry. Merely tough competitors can persist under these prompt changes. Every single bank wished to face this situation and emerge as victorious, but it was not as easy as one could imagine. But this could be possible somewhat if a desire to work all together for transformation was made. Fast moving and complex world of new techniques &skills had forced banks to consider it and to adjust themselves to the changing banking environment. There was a requirement to advance competencies i.e. skill, knowledge and approach among the bank employees to make them more appropriate to the altering circumstances. Since every human being had potential to do remarkable things and to support him to understand, develop and utilize his/her potential, the bank should provide them knowledge and emerging climate as well as prospects. And this was possible only if efficient and effective Human Resource Practices, which would maximize value and minimize cost within the organization should be applied. But there was no single practice to which all organizations should aspire, but to some extent, each firm must have a distinguishing Human Resource Management System that represents core competencies required for the survival and sustainability of that particular organization. Best for one firm may not be best for other. The best technique applied last month may not be best for today. Hence in this present competitive world, management of human resources had been a matter of crucial determination of success for the banking industry. Better management of human resource had been more earnestly felt as a vital, in recent decade as before. Thus, with a view of the inevitability of Human Resource in the banking sector, the aim of this study was to examine HRM Practices followed by public & private sector banks & to provide some suggestions.

The following study is conducted to measure and compare the performance of 32 Indian banks, 21 public banks, and 11 private banks, at two tiers during the period of 2008–2018. Industrial analysis of both the public and private banking sectors is conducted in the first tier, followed by an individual bank-level analysis at the second tier. Data analysis consists of deposits, assets, and equity as inputs to measure the outputs practicing data envelopment analysis techniques. The empirical results portray a mixed trend in various elements of efficiency. They reveal that with the common pledge to expand market share and performance, public and private banks have been improving and covering the highest efficiency level. However, at the industry level, the private banking industry has slightly better technical and pure technical efficiency results compared to the public banking industry. On the other hand, the public banking sector performed well compared to the private banking industry in the stipulated study period based on mean scale efficiency results.Generally, many studies on Indian Banking Industry focus on determinants of industrial banking growth indicators. Further, we examine Indian banking performance at the individual bank level by incorporating the latest available data. In terms of technical and pure technical efficiency, Kotak Mahindra Bank Ltd., a private bank, scored the highest at the individual bank level. The State Bank of Bikaner & Jai has the highest score in terms of scale efficiency and thus is the best example of a public sector bank. Despite the improvement in income and deposits in both types of banking, there is still room for public banks to redirect their short-term and long-term marketing and communication strategies to focus on targeting customers and enhancing management skills at the branch level.
