To achieve the above objectives, three hypotheses were formulated and tested in the study. Data were analyzed using regression analysis. The result showed that pressure-induced stress had a significant effect on employee effectiveness in deposit money banks in Abia State (b=0.140, t=2.746, p&lt;0.006).
