Bu çalışmada, sağlık çalışanlarının stres düzeylerinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaçla hastane ortamında çalışan sağlık çalışanlarının hem genel stres düzeyleri hem de iş stresi düzeylerinin sosyo-demografik değişkenler açısından incelenmesi düşünülmüştür. Çalışmaya 19-69 yaş aralığında 178 erkek ve 332 kadın olmak üzere toplam 510 kişi katılmıştır. Katılımcılar, meslekleri dikkate alınarak hekim, hemşire ve diğer sağlık çalışanları olacak şekilde üç gruba ayrılmıştır. Çalışmaya hastane ortamı dışında çalışan sağlık çalışanları dahil edilmemiştir. Katılımcılar A Stres Ölçeği-36 ve A İş Stresi Ölçeği-20’yi cevaplamıştır. Çalışmada ölçek genel toplam puanları ve alt ölçek toplam puanları sosyo-demografik değişken grupları açısından çok değişkenli varyans analizi (MANOVA) ile karşılaştırılmıştır. Sonuçlara göre tüm grupta hemşirelerin, hekimlerden ve diğer sağlık çalışanlarından, hekimlerin de diğer sağlık çalışanlarından iş stres düzlerinin yüksek olduğu görülmüştür. Sosyo-demografik değişkenlerden sadece gelir durumunun sağlık çalışanlarında stres düzeyi açısından farklılık yarattığı anlaşılmıştır. Gelir durumu kötü olan grubun stres düzeyinin diğer gruplardan yüksek olduğu belirlenmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlar ilgili literatür doğrultusunda tartışılmıştır.
