This study sought to determine the organizational values as predictors of the occupational stress level among secondary school teachers. The Work Stress Scale and the Organizational Values Profile Inventory were used as tools. 321 teachers participated in the survey. The stress factor analysis pointed out two factors and the multidimensional scaling of the Organizational Values Profile Inventory presented 5 motivational types: ethics and concern with the community;domain, organizational prestige and accomplishment; autonomy and employees' well-being; conformity; and tradition. The multiple regression suggests that the more the teacher is aware of autonomy and employees' well-being and ethics and concern with the community, the less he reports occupational stress. Physical activities and sick leave also presented an impact on occupational stress. In conclusion, organizational values significantly influence occupational stress and organizational culture management can reduce the stress level.
