| Summary: | In the exploration of the cause of stress among Singaporeans, we attempt to look into how individuals interpret their everyday experiences of interpersonal relations. In this paper, stress is studied from a social capital theoretical perspective where social relations at the workplace is a platform for individuals gain resource in the form of social capital; but at the same time a potential bedrock for conflicts resulting in felt stress. This research attempts to fill in the gap in literature by understanding beyond the politically right answers to make sense of the overall stressful experiences that working Singaporeans face, independent of occupation, age, gender and race. |
