Sažetak


Stress has been the focus of many research in technical, biomedical and social sciences and humanities. Every field has its own view on stress, therefore, there are many definitions of stress in contemporary literature. Stress is considered as one of the most important sources of psychophysical, work and organisational problems of employees. It is in the second place of workers̕ health problems in the EU with women being more prone to work-related stress than men. It is one of the biggest causes of professional diseases and absenteeism in the world and one of the leading economic problems in developed countries. The aim of this study is to identify the most common sources of stress in physiotherapists and examine the relationship between overall stress experience and some sociodemographic characteristic. Subjects were 65 physiotherapists from the Clinical Hospital Centre Zagreb, of the average age of 42,8 years. We used The Occupational Stress Questionnaire for Hospital Health Care Workers. The results indicate that physiotherapists experience low to moderate levels of work-related stress. There were no significant correlations between the levels of stress, age and years of practice. We can conclude that overall stress experience and sociodemographic characteristics are not related. The most common stressors in physiotherapist are those related with work organisation and financial constraints, which is in agreement with other research on work-related stress.
