This paper aims to develop a research framework of the relationship between occupational stress and job performance among teachers. Reading from prior literature, researchers found that job satisfaction mediated the relationship between occupational stress and job performance among teachers. Conclusion could be made after literature reviewed is that there is a significant relationship between occupational stress and job performance among teachers. If a teacher is under stress, they will be dissatisfied with their job and will perform poorly at school. Additionally, this research framework will be beneficial to the human resource management to improve the teachers’ performance and future research is highly recommended.
