Background of the Study

Workplace stress is a prevalent issue in many industries, and its effects on employee performance and well-being have been widely documented. In the tourism sector, particularly in service-oriented roles such as hotel management, event coordination, and customer service, workplace stress can significantly affect service delivery. Abuja, as Nigeria’s capital, is a prominent hub for tourism and hospitality services, attracting both international and domestic visitors. The increasing demand for high-quality services and the fast-paced nature of the tourism industry in the city place considerable pressure on workers.

Tourism employees in Abuja face stressors such as long working hours, high customer expectations, job insecurity, and the need to manage multiple tasks simultaneously. This type of stress can negatively impact employee morale, reduce productivity, and impair customer satisfaction. It is crucial for tourism organizations to understand the effect of workplace stress on service delivery to maintain high standards of hospitality and enhance the overall visitor experience.

This study aims to examine the impact of workplace stress on service delivery in Abuja’s tourism sector, focusing on how stress affects employee performance and the quality of services provided to tourists.

Statement of the Problem

Workplace stress in the tourism sector has the potential to disrupt service delivery, which in turn can harm the reputation of businesses in Abuja’s tourism industry. Although stress is a recognized issue in hospitality and service sectors, there is limited research on its specific effects in the tourism industry of Abuja. This study seeks to explore how stress influences the quality of service, employee interactions with customers, and the overall success of tourism-related businesses in the city.

Objectives of the Study

  1. To assess the impact of workplace stress on service delivery in Abuja’s tourism sector.
  2. To identify the primary sources of workplace stress for employees in Abuja’s tourism industry.

  2. What are the main sources of workplace stress for employees in Abuja’s tourism industry?
  3. What strategies can be implemented to manage workplace stress and improve service delivery in Abuja’s tourism sector?

Research Hypotheses

  1. Workplace stress has a significant negative effect on service delivery in Abuja’s tourism sector.
  2. The primary sources of workplace stress in Abuja’s tourism sector include long working hours, customer demands, and job insecurity.
  3. Stress management strategies will lead to improved service delivery in Abuja’s tourism sector.

Scope and Limitations of the Study

This study will focus on tourism workers in Abuja, including those employed in hotels, tour agencies, and other tourism-related businesses. Data will be collected from employees, managers, and industry experts. Limitations include the subjective nature of stress assessment and the challenge of measuring its direct impact on service delivery.
