This is a descriptive correlational study done through field study. The sample includes all employees of sport and youth directorate of Alborz province, 140 employees completed the questionnaires. The measuring instruments of this study include Macan time management scale (1950), Hsu organizational effectiveness scale (2002) and Endler and Parker stress coping styles (1990). The results of Pearson correlation coefficient tests and multiple regression showed that there is meaningful relation between stress coping styles and time management among male employees, however, there is no meaningful relation between the stress coping styles and organizational effectiveness. Furthermore, the best predictor of stress coping styles is time management. Among female employees, there is no meaningful relation between stress coping styles, time management and organizational effectiveness. Moreover, time management and organizational effectiveness do not predict the stress coping styles. Within the employees, from time management and organizational effectiveness, targeting is meaningfully able to predict stress coping styles.
