In India Schools are the social institutions those have been under intense criticism. Teachers are expected to fill multi facets roles in their daily tasks. In the process of balancing these tasks, their productivity at the work place may be affected. Moreover, recent trends in education system have enforced comprehensive continuous evaluation of pupils that has led to perceived work load increase among school teachers.
