Abstract
In the realm of organizational psychology, factors such as stress have been thoroughly investigated; however scientific research focused on the intricacies that influence worker’s stress levels and well-being is still in its infancy. By concentrating on work events one can examine the complex interactions between factors relevant to the workplace such as fatigue. Negative work events resulting in fatigue is the first hypothesis and positive work events decrease the impact of negative work events on fatigue, as the second hypothesis. These relationships are analysed in accordance with the Conservation of Resources (COR), Theory which emphasizes people’s attempt at acquiring and safeguarding resources significant to them. These resources are crucial for experiencing and coping with different work events. A sample of 96 participants, between the ages of 19 to 62 years old, were recruited. The questionnaire respondents were asked to fill in one baseline survey and ten daily surveys to get a better understanding of work events and their impact on fatigue. Significant results were found in support of Hypothesis 1, while the study outcomes were not in line with Hypothesis 2.
