The present study aimed at finding out relationship between occupational stress and general life satisfaction of male (N-30) and female (N=30) Central Government officers. ‘t’ tests had been done first to find out if there was any significant gender difference among the officers on either occupational stress or general life satisfaction which, indeed had revealed a significant difference on occupational stress. Therefore, the two samples were treated independently for finding out the interrelationships. Person’s product-moment ‘r’ had been computed for this purpose. Results indicated that for male officers, such relationships could not be found. However, for female officers, occupational stress and general life satisfaction had been found to be correlated.
