This study also aims to identify if organizational politics moderates these relationship in the business organizations operating in Pakistan. Data are collected from the 179 respondents (employees) of private sector organizations by employing survey method. Different position holders of the organizations have participated in this study. Simple regression analysis was used to measure the impact of social support on job stress and employee's well-being and that of job stress on well-being. Hierarchical regression was used to test the moderating effect of organizational politics. Results show that a significant relationship exists among social support, job stress and well-being. However, the study proposes negative relationship between social support and job stress and positive relationship between social support and well-being but the results show negative relationship between social support and well-being. Results also show that organizational politics play a significant moderating role and it not only moderates the relationship of social support with job stress and well-being but these relationships also become positive in the presence of the moderator.
