Abstract
The purpose of the present study is to assess the level of anxiety among Pre-retiree and Retired Bank employees at different stages of retirement among of 200 bank employees (100 Pre-Retiree and 100 Retired) from public sector banks. The State Trait Anxiety Test (STAT) by Sanjay Vohra (1993) was used to assess ‘anxiety’ among these employees. The analysis showed a significant difference between Pre-retiree and Retired employees with higher level of anxiety among Pre-retiree employees. There was a significant difference in the level of anxiety among the two groups of Pre-retiree (6 months & 3 years) employees in certain dimensions and no significant difference among the groups of retired (6 months & 3 years) employees within. Implications are discussed.
