Manifestarea stresului ocupațional la angajații din sistemul educațional

Abstract

Stress has become an indispensable part of our lives. Environmental demands are constantly rising and are affecting all spheres, including work. The activity of employees in the education system is far from easy. Not everyone manages to adapt to new changes, to the challenges of reality and hence the stress that affects their quality of life and professional performance. This article reflects the results of an experimental study undertaken on 90 employees in the education system, aged between 20 – 72 years, from early education institutions, theoretical gymnasiums and high schools in urban and rural areas. According to this research, 42.2% of education system employees have a high level of stress, while 3.3% experience an intense level. Teachers from preschool and high school institutions are the ones most affected by stress, while employees in middle institutions show a lower level of occupational stress.
