 In this case study, the entire course of event revolves round the actions taken by the
company owner of Walter Rossler and the employee Simpson. He had to leave his job
for his whistle blowing and pay $ 700 to the company as he left his job abruptly and the
company had filed a lawsuit for this reason. As the owner of Walter Rossler Company
provide unsatisfactory reference to the other companies so that Simpson do not get
scope for placement in any company.
 The Job Demand Control theory supposes that that the work related stress result from
the interaction among psychological job demand related to workload can like cognitive
and emotional demand and interpersonal conflicts (Noblet & Lamontagne, 2016). In
addition to this, the frustration that Simpson could not change his course of life by
entering another company to work.
 As found out in the transactional theory of work stress, the wok environment can be a
stressor for the employee (Thirumaleswari & Ragothaman, 2015). For Simpson, this
process of protesting against the discriminating behaviour of the company led him to
think unvalued for the organisation. This affected his psychosocial needs which
affected his respect.
