H1.8: poor work characteristics are positively correlated to the work stress
H1.9: lack of managers’ support at work is positively correlated with employees work stress
H1.10: poor social working environment is positively correlated with the employee work stress
H2.1: the employee work stress and thereupon “negative physical effects” on them are significantly correlated
H2.2: employee work stress is negatively correlated with the employee’s performance
H2.3: employee job stress affects employees’ emotions negatively
H2.4: employee work stress has negative effects on the employees’ behaviors
