Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka stress på arbetsplatsen bland vårdpersonal och vad de anser kan vara åtgärder för att minska stressen på sin arbetsplats. Undersökningens datainsamling utfördes genom en kvalitativ metod, fem intervjuersom bestod av tio intervjufrågor. Dataanalysen genomfördes genom att innehållsanalys tillämpades. Analysen resulterade i två teman och genom dessa presenteras resultatet. Det framkom att stressorsaker bland vårdpersonalen var konflikter mellan personal, tidsbrist för vissa arbetsuppgifter och vård vid livets slutskede. Det som vårdpersonalen ansåg skulle kunna minska stressen var en bättre relation mellan personalen och att arbetsplatsen måste ha mer resurser. Slutsatsen av undersökningen är att mycket av det som beskrivits som negativt i resultatet skulle kunna bli bättre om det fanns riktlinjer, något som saknas i nuläget. / The purpose of this study was to explore and describe workplace stress among healthcare workers in a community based nursing home for elderly, dement individuals and what they considered could be measures to reduce stress at their workplace. The method used was a survey made by a qualitative interview with five respondents, consisting of ten interview questions. The data analysis was performed through content analysis. The emerging results showed that causes of stress among the nursing staffwere conflicts between staff members, lack of time for tasks and palliative care. The nursing staff identified that ways to reduce stress could be a better relationship between the staff members and that the work place needs more resources, for example in the form of more personnel. The conclusion of the study was that the work place needs guidelines as to how they should solve problems, and the presence of guidelines at the work place will most probably help to reduce stress among the staff.

Therefore, I decided to learn more about this issue. This thesis deals specifically with stress in primary school teachers, to which teachers are increasingly exposed, and the word stress is very often associated with this profession. For several years I personally worked as a teaching assistant in a special school and now I teach Czech to foreigners at a primary school in Pilsen. Also for this reason, I decided to map the stress of primary school teachers. I would like to continue working in this profession, as well as working on my personal growth and finding a way to effectively prevent stress. The thesis is divided into two parts. In the theoretical part, I define the terms load and stress first and cite some well-known authors dealing with this issue. I also describe the symptoms of stress of various kinds and its consequences for our health. In the following chapter I describe individual stressors, which have a significant effect on the teacher's work performance. The chapter describing...
