The purpose of this paper was to explore the role of occupational stress in somatic health complaints among executives in public sector organizations. Somatic health complaints lead to disability, absenteeism, job loss and subsequent unemployment in the organizations. The present study was conducted on 210 executives and results revealed that occupational stress (total), role overload, role ambiguity, and role conflict (dimensions of occupational stress) were significantly positively correlated with somatic health complaints. The results of simple regression analysis showed that occupational stress predicted significantly somatic health complaints while results of step wise regression analysis showed that role conflict (dimension of occupational stress) emerged as significant predictors to influence the somatic complaints. The findings of this study will help in reducing the somatic health complaints through considering the role of the present predictor so that organizations will achieve their goals.Keywords
