The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between occupational stress and job performance by using self-administered questionnaires collected from Malaysian defense and security personnel involved in humanitarian aid in the Middle East. The results of the SmartPLS path model analysis show two important findings: (1) physiological pressure is associated with job performance and (2) psychological stress is associated with significant job performance. These results indicated that occupational stress in humanitarian aid does act as an important determinant in the performance of work in the organization's sample. Furthermore, discussions, implications and conclusions are explained.
