“…Nitel aşırı rol yükü stresi ise iş bireyin kabiliyet ve yetenek düzeyini aştığı zaman ortaya çıkmaktadır (Sanders ve Fulks, 1995: 46). Diğer taraftan Milbourn (2006) çalışmasına göre nicel eksik rol yükü stresi bir bireyin çok az iş ile görevli olduğunda ortaya çıkmaktadır. Nitel eksik rol yükü stresi ise işin çok kolay, işle ilgili görevlerin bireyleri zorlamadığı ve sahip olunan kabiliyet ve yeteneklerin tamamının kullanılmadığı durumlarda ortaya çıkmaktadır (Larson, 2004: 1126, Gavin ve Dileepan, 2002.…”

“…Quantitative role overload stress arises where an individual is assigned 'too great a volume of work to accomplish in the allocated time' whereas qualitative role overload stress occurs where 'job requirements exceed the individual's ability or skill level' (Sanders and Fulks, 1995, p. 46). Contrastingly, quantitative role underload stress occurs where an individual is assigned too little work (Milbourn, 2006).

T his study examines the root causes of occupational stress in Irish trainee accountants and investigates the relationship between occupational stress, job satisfaction and turnover intentions of Irish trainee accountants. Findings suggest that exam pressure, role confl ict, role ambiguity, qualitative role overload, quantitative role overload and a dominant supervisor are the most common sources of occupational stress experienced by Irish trainee accountants. Whilst many of the job stressors identifi ed were independently found to be signifi cantly positively related to job-related tension (occupational stress), the combination of role overload (both qualitative and quantitative) and role ambiguity is found to signifi cantly impact on job-related tension. Furthermore, role ambiguity and career development concerns were found to have a combined negative impact on job satisfaction, and job dissatisfaction combined with role confl ict signifi cantly impacted on turnover intentions. The implications for employers and accounting membership bodies are discussed in this paper along with opportunities for further research.
