Impact of Stress on Work Performance Among Female Basic School Teachers at Nangbagu in the Sagnarigu District, Ghana
Résumé
This study focused on the impact of stress on female teachers’ work performance in basic schools in the Tamale Metropolis. The study also investigates the factor of stress and how female teachers cope with the stress. This research used a qualitative method and relied on an interview protocol as instrument to collect data from respondents. Working female teachers at the Nangbagu basic schools were chosen to take part in the study. Based on this research, stress hurts female teachers, who usually differ and depend on how they encounter the stress. However, female teachers who carry out their tasks professionally always try to be professional. Due to that, most of them cope with the stress in a professional way, too. This research is important as a source of reference for the government to understand stress among teachers, especially female teachers in suburban areas in the country. Then, based on this research, the government can understand the reasons for work stress and take measures to reduce stress among teachers. If teachers are stressed due to workload, the government should take initiatives to reduce it by employing more teachers as national service personnel assistants. Then, it can help to reduce the burden on teachers. Keywords : Female teachers, stress, Ghana Education, workload, Coping Strategy, Stressor DOI: 10.7176/JEP/17-6-17 Publication date: June 30 th 2026
