Abstract: Stress levels in the organisations have been increasing which has been damaging employee's wellbeing and causing serious illnesses. Mutual gains model of human resource management endorses employee's well-being in the organisational sphere. The study aimed to deploy mutual gains models for determining either stress levels of the employees can be reduced through the intervention of HRM attributions. Furthermore, it was estimated how gratitude interventions can improve mental wellbeing of employees and help in reducing occupational stress. Positivist research doctrine was deployed, and primary data was collected from the respondents using non-probability sampling method. Structural equation modelling technique was executed for the testing of causal relationships among constructs. Empirical outcomes affirmed strongly knitted theoretical connotations among the constructs. This study contributes to human resource management literature by proposing a framework which can improve mental well-being and can reduce employees stress levels in the organisations.
