    The aim of the study was to examine the effect of job stress on employee psychological wellbeing, the case of Abay Bank North and East District, Ethiopia. This study employs a mixed methods research approach to examine the effect of job stress on employee psychological well-being at Abay Bank, North and East District, Ethiopia. Data were collected using purposive and simple random sampling techniques, involving a sample of employees. The study investigates the relationships among workload, role clarity, employee autonomy, and workplace relationships, and their impact on psychological well-being. Data analysis was conducted using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS), employing Pearson correlation analysis to identify significant relationships among variables. The results reveal strong positive correlations between role clarity and workplace relationships with psychological well-being, while workload demonstrates a negative correlation. To further explore these relationships, a multiple linear regression model was utilized, explaining a substantial portion of the variance in psychological well-being, with a notable R-value. The ANOVA results indicate that the regression model is statistically significant. Coefficient analysis shows that workplace relationships and employee autonomy significantly enhance psychological well-being, while excessive workload detracts from it, alongside a positive influence from role clarity. These findings highlight the essential need for Abay Bank to implement strategies that manage workload, enhance role clarity, and foster supportive workplace relationships.
