“…These are compositions of permanent and contractual faculty of the eight colleges on the main campus of the University. The main tool used in this study was the teacher stress inventory (TSI) [14], a 49item questionnaire with ten (10) factors that assesses the level of stress experienced by the faculty member. The validity and reliability of the instrument had already been proven [14].…”

Stress is inevitable in any workplace. Stressed teachers in every school are prone to exhaustion and commit errors. In the Philippines, few studies have been discussed due to stress among faculty members, especially in tertiary education. In this study, the researchers shed light on sources, manifestations, and levels of stress, and discovered the relationship between sources and their manifestations among faculty members of the eight colleges of the Isabela State University-Main Campus. Data were randomly collected from 165 respondents, through the Teacher Stress Inventory developed by Fimian. Data revealed that the main sources and manifestations of stress by the respondents were Work-related and Professional Investment, and Fatigue Manifestations. The level of stress among the respondents was moderate. Likewise, the sources and manifestations of stress were found significantly correlated to each other. Results of the study press on the development of a proposed Stress Management Program supportive and essential in managing and coping stress of the faculty member

“…Generally, teaching is perceived as a rewarding job, but it also provides a high degree of stress and symptoms of burnout (Skaalvik & Skaalvik, 2015;Zysberg et al, 2017). Findings from previous studies have shown that this phenomenon occurs globally, such as in the Philippines (Tan, 2017), Saudi Arabia (Mohamed & Mohamed, 2016), and Nigeria (Aina & Adeleke, 2018). Bowen (2016) revealed three areas of occupational stress commonly faced by educators: teaching-related stress, workplace relationship-related stress, and organizational-related stress.…”

Of late, the non-tenure lecturers' (NTL) employment is taken to meet the shortage of English language lecturers in Malaysian universities. Significant research has investigated the effects of NTLs' appointments on teaching, students, and university performance; however, little scholarly work has focused on the psychological experiences of NTLs. With the job market's escalating demands, the prevalence of occupational stress has become a matter of great concern for both universities' administrators and NTLs. The purpose of this case study was to shed light and explore NTLs' perceptions of occupational stress sources, stress effects, and coping strategies in a Malaysian public university. Purposive sampling was utilized to recruit study participants who met the sampling criteria. Data gleaned from in-depth semi-structured interviews were analysed using thematic analysis. Results indicate that stigma and novice status was identified as the main stressor, followed by teaching-related engagements, students' negative factors, inadequate infrastructure, and non-teaching related engagements. Personal, social, professional, and institutional coping strategies were the coping strategies used to alleviate stress. The findings suggest prospects for institutional intervention by attending to NTLs' needs to mitigate adverse outcomes for students and universities by providing comprehensive stress training courses.

“…In the Philippines, studies have focused on the health status of college students and not faculty and administrators. However, one study, Tan (2017) identified predictors of stress among Filipino professors in public universities. Findings of the study revealed that age, job satisfaction, work load and negative religious coping predicted stress among the respondents.…”

This study determined the health profile of faculty and staff at the Adventist University of the Philippines. Using the descriptive research design, a total of 83 respondents participated in the study. Results of the descriptive analysis revealed an overall good health status of the respondents. There were however, few occurrences of poor health profile in terms of high systolic blood pressure (41%), high diastolic blood pressure (31.3%), low back pain (18.1%), asthma (10.8%) and sinusitis (7.2%). Additionally, 38.2% of respondents experienced anxiety and 19.7% experienced sleep disturbance. There was a difference in gender based on waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) finding. Based on the WHR results, more than half (56%) of the female respondents were at high risk (WHR ≥ 0.86) for cardiovascular diseases, while only 3% of the male counterparts had a moderate risk (WHR 0.96-1.0) for cardiovascular and other non-communicable diseases. In fact, none (0%) of the male respondents was at high risk for cardiovascular diseases. Amidst the few occurrences of poor health, the respondents experienced considerable life enjoyment and exhibited high priority for attaining their health goals. Respondents are therefore entreated to engage in healthy lifestyle practices (exercise, healthy eating and stress management), avail for regular check-ups and screenings and access medical services in order to prevent and/or control chronic lifestyle-related diseases.
