The purpose of this study was to examine the level of stress of sub-dimensional job stress of staff nurses. This study surveyed 163 nurses in three general hospitals in Seoul and Gyung-gi province for two months starting in September 2004. The questionnaire consisted of 52 questions about job stress. The job stress was measured using ’The general job stress scale’ developed by Kim WH(2002). The answers were on a scale rating of 5. This questionnaire consists of four domains relating to nursing activity, job environment, interpersonal relations, and hospital & administration management. The data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, the t-test, ANOVA, and tukey test using SAS. The average of staff nurses’ job stress was 3.14. The mean scores of job stress of nurses showed higher than average in all four dimensions: 2.89±8.5 in the nursing activity dimension, 3.45±7.6 in the job environmental dimension, 3.02±7.5 in the interpersonal relations dimension, and 3.31±4.3 in the hospital administration & unit management dimension. This study showed that the staff nurses must be trained with job stress management programs for each nursing organization’s effectiveness.
