description ABSTRACT: Introduction & Objective: Stress is a collection of reactions against incompatible and unexpected internal and external factors. Since the manager of any organization is exposed to stress more than other personnel. The present study was performed to determine the rate of stress in senior managers and their assistants in Kohgilouyeh and Boyrahmad province. Materials & Methods: In this descriptive, cross-sectional study, all the 134 senior managers and their assistants were recruited through a stress questionnaire. The questionnaire included six physical, individual, cultural, occupational, familial domains, and physical conditions of job environment. Results: It was revealed that the avarage rate of stress was 54.88, and 34.3% of the subjects appeared to experience high stress. Occupational stress (58.73) appeared to be the most stressful domain and physical stress (41.43) was the least stressful one, respectively. Violation from regulations, success of the opportunists, and showing discrimination toward the referrals turned out to be the most stressful options. Conclusion: Since in this study the occupational dimension had created the highest degree of stress in the managers, it appears that the greatest and most effective step in decreasing the managers’ stress is perhaps accurate supervision, appropriate encouragement and finally due punishment proportionate the managers' performance.
