Employee efficiency is a vital component of a company's performance in today's dynamic global setting. High levels of stress in the workplace can have a direct negative effect on employee productivity. Stress is a common component, and people from all walks of life are subjected to it. Employers are also investigating the stress management problems that lead to workers' poor job performance. The study's main purpose was to measure stress and its effect on employee productivity. The research was carried out in Ranipet's Leather Industry. The research design chosen was a descriptive survey. Affordability a sample size of 150 was selected using convenience sampling techniques. Questionnaires were used to gather information. The findings revealed that the respondents were subjected to a variety of stressors, and the investigation revealed that stress had an effect on productivity. The majority of respondents said they work under extreme stress and that they don't feel cared about by their employers. The fact that the majority of respondents considered quitting their jobs because they believed their employers didn't care about them reflected a high level of discontent, which inevitably lowered productivity. Management should perform an overview of the organisational atmosphere and environment by evaluating why workers believe Leather Industries does not care for its employees and what they can do to improve this. It was also proposed that an Employee Assistance Program be implemented to allow for early detection and intervention of issues in order to maintain productivity levels.
