Role stress was studied in a public sector industry across low, medium and high qualification levels. Role Erosion is the most prominent role stressor across qualification levels but role stress across qualification levels is nonuniform. Inter-Role Distance, Role Isolation and total role stress are stronger in medium qualification, compared with low qualification. Personal Inadequacy is stronger in low qualification, compared with high qualification. Role Stagnation is stronger in medium qualification, compared with high qualification. Self-Role Distance is stronger in medium qualification, compared with low and high qualification levels. Curvilinear relationship between Self-Role Distance and qualification level is hypothesized.
