A model about unique stressors among working women was explored. Those stressors become salient when a working woman conceives an aspiration for business career in the organization. Therefore it was named career stressor. Female employees (N=188) working for private corporations were asked to respond the questionnaire consisting of measures on career stressor and general stressor in the organization, career motives, career formation support, and stress reactions. It was found that faced with the high level of career stressor, women with high career motives tend to feel more job dissatisfaction than the low motive group. In addition, the results indicated that the support for career failed to buffer the effect of work over-load on measures of strain: the more the work load, the more the strain regardless of the level of social support. Then, it was suggested that the company needs to work to decrease career stressor and work over-load to allow female workers to move ahead with their careers.
