Stress has been stated by experts as one of the main harmfulnesses of modern society, being a risk factor for well-being and a quality of life. The sphere of work is proving to be one of the main sources of stress, threatening your physical and mental health or your needs for personal and /or professional fulfillment, which impairs the exercise of your function in this environment. Thus, the present study evaluates the level of stress experienced by health professionals in the Alagoano / Baiano Sertão. The survey was conducted with professionals from hospitals, centers and health posts with 138 professionals grouped in 32 different functions. For data collection we used the stress questionnaire designed based on the studies by Karasek et al. (1985), Siegrist (1998), Alves et al. (2004), Rodrigues, Barrichello and Morin (2016) and application of Item Response Theory. With the collected data was applied the dimensionality analysis of the questionnaire, confirming its two-dimensionality and soon after applying the Samejina Gradual Response Model (MRG) of two parameters in the construction of the scales for the dimensions of stress Work demand and Social Support. As a result, a two-dimensional model was built to assess occupational stress level where 81.2% is in the Passive Work region (low demand and low support). It is noteworthy that it is essential to analyze the quadrants that generate health risk, such as passive work and high tension (stress region). Thus, in the present study, 81.9% of the studied were in a health risk zone (81.2% in passive work and 0.7% in high tension). This result generates an alert for the working conditions where the respondents are working and the consequences that are already being generated on health.
