Abstract Despite extensive scholarly and practical engagement with workplace stress, its prevalence demands innovative perspectives. This research addresses this need by integrating the lens of positive organizational behavior to examine the protective function of psychological capital. We posit that the positive psychological resources of efficacy, hope, optimism, and resilience (collectively known as PsyCap) are critical personal resources that buffer against adverse stress-related outcomes. Empirical results from a sizable and diverse sample of employees demonstrate that PsyCap significantly explains variance in perceived stress, intention to quit, and job search behavior. The paper concludes with evidence-based recommendations for HR practitioners to cultivate psychological capital as a strategic intervention for stress management.
