Abstract The aim of the study is to assess and compare the 'occupational stress and coping between male and female High School Teachers' of Bangalore. Assessment of occupational stress was carried out by using Occupational Stress Scale (OSS) and the coping was assessed by Coping Check List (CCL). 50 male and 50 female High School Teachers were selected from twelve high schools as samples using non- probability purposive sampling technique. It was found that female teachers had more occupational stress (64.79%) than male teachers (58.44%). In coping, male teachers were found to be more effective (47.68%) than their female counterparts (46.71%). Among High School Teachers, 64.32% had severe occupational stress in 'performance pressure' domain. Regarding coping, 57.3% were able to cope with 'problem focused' domain. The study findings revealed that, there was a significant relationship (p< 0.05) between occupational stress among male and female High School Teachers and there was no significant relationship between coping among male and female High School Teachers (p>0.05).
