Restructuring of work processes entailed deep impactos in the banking sector, with consequent reduction in employability, precariousness in labor relations, and consequent disease of its main actors. In this context, the aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of occupational stress and negative self-evaluation of health workers of a banking network of Vitória/ES and the association of these variables with socioeconomic, demographic, anthropometric characteristics, job characteristics, habits life and health condition. A cross sectional study was based on data from 525 bank employees, aged 20 and 64 years, of both sexes. Occupational stress was assessed using the short version and adapted for Brazil off the Job Stress Scale and self-assessment of health based on the question: "In general , compared with people of your age, as you consider your own state health?". It was found that most bank belonged to the passive job quadrant (34.4%, n=179) quadrant considered intermediate risk for occupational stress. Among the investigated variables, socioeconomic status (p=0,008), marital status (p=0,015), position/function (p=0,001), working time on the bank (p=0,038), hours of daily work (p=0,001) and social support (p=0,001) were associated with the Karasek’s quadrants. Regarding self-rated health, 17% (n=87) of bank self-rated their health status as fair or poor. Were associated with worse self-assessed health of the low socioeconomic level (OR 1.80, CI 1.06-3.05), the sedentary lifestyle (OR 2.64, CI 1.42 - 4.89), the excess weight (OR 3.18 , CI 1.79 - 5.65 ) and low social support (OR 3.71 , CI 2.10 - 6.58), and especially the presence of self-reported chronic diseases (OR 5.49 , 2.46 - 12.27). These results may support organizational actions to promote worker health, aiming at reducing the factors related to the increase in occupational stress and poorer health perception.
