Summary/Abstract: One phenomenon that generates significant losses in terms of productivity and cost in organizations is occupational stress. Stress is encountered in various occupational groups, but its levels are high when we speak about professions that are in contact with a large number of people as part of their responsibilities, such as teaching. Given the major implications of stress on the individual involved in the work, but also on the organization, the main concern of this research was to identify and understand the risk factors involved. Using the hierarchical regression, we tried to highlight the extent to which certain stress sources in the academic environment influence the level of stress experienced by the teachers, while controlling the influence of other situational factors such as demographics or personality factors.
