A random sampling method has been used in this study and sample of 250 employees was selected from the different organizations. Questionnaires were distributed among the participants.Software SPSS version 21 was used to find the correlation between time management, work stress and work performance. Social exchange theory supports the hypothesis of this research. Findings reveal that there is significant negative relationship between time management and work stress, significant positive relationship between time management and work performance and significant negative relationship between work stress and work performance.
