In the present era, individuals are always in a race of grabbing opportunities for growth, looking for demands and to fulfill those demands they face challenges at their workplaces. The demands sometimes work as the stressors and it produces a stress for an individual. A sample of 149 (n=149) IT professionals were taken from different organizations within tricity, that is, Chandigarh, Panchkula, and Mohali. Four tools namely, Technostress by Ragu-Nathan and Ragu-Nathan (2002) Job Satisfaction Instrument by Mishra, Tiwari, and Pandey (1977) Job Performance Questionnaire by Shokrkon and Arshadi (1990) and Mental Health Inventory by Jagdish and Srivastava (1996) were administered on the sample for the data collection. The findings of the present study have statistically analyzed the data by using correlation, t-test and regression. The t-test has shown a significant difference in technostress (t=2.070,0.05 level) and females found to have more technostress than males. There is a significant difference in mental health(t=2.573,0.05 level) where males are found to have good mental health than females. The result has also shown a significant and negative correlation between technostress and job satisfaction (r=0.255, 0.01 level) and also a negatively significant correlation between technostress and job performance (r=0.333, 0.01 level). The regression has shown a low level of technostress predicting job satisfaction (R square=6.5%),job performance (R square=ll.l%)and mental health(R square=2.2%).Keywords
