        abstract = {Information Technology (IT) is one of the rapidly expanding sectors in the Indian employment industry in the present day competitive and fast paced corporeal world, where informed professionals have almost limitless career prospects, and yet subject the workers to high performance standards. IT employment is normally characterized by long hours of work, tight time limits in projects, continual adjustment and job insecurity. The conditions may often result into a state of mental stress that may result into fatigue, anxiety, burnout and depression. The fact that the cases of intense psychological distress and suicidal intentions among HR departments in recent years play a critical role in the development of the mental health support system, the deployment of stress management programs, and the subsequent consideration of employee well-being is crucial towards keeping the workforce productive. The current paper concerns the specifics of research on the effects of the stress at work on the mental health of the employees.},
