Abstract

Stress at work has been shown to contribute to ill-health in a variety of studies (an overview is given in Frese 1982, 1986). In this paper I would like to argue that it is necessary to differentiate between stressors and resources in order clearly to understand how stressors may have a long-range impact on health.
