Occupational stress has become a major cause of illness and a major risk to the psychological and social well-being of workers. In this context, the aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of occupational stress in employees of a banking network in the municipal region of Vitória, state of Espírito Santo, and its association with sociodemographic variables and work characteristics. This cross-sectional study involved 525 bank employees. Occupational stress was evaluated using the short version of the Job Stress Scale. A multivariate analysis was conducted to evaluate the association between the Karasek quadrants and the independent variables. It was found that most bank employees belonged to the "passive jobs" quadrant (34.4%, n = 179) and were considered to have an intermediate risk of occupational stress. Considering the "low demand jobs" category as the standard, the increased risk of stress was associated with low education levels (odds ratio, 3.69, 95% CI, 1.64-8.28), working in bank agencies (odds ratio, 2.55, 95% CI, 1.36-4.77), a length of employment at the bank of more than five years (odds ratio, 3.32, 95% CI, 1.89-5.81), a daily work period of six hours (odds ratio, 2.72, 95% CI, 1.27-5.81), and, mainly, low social support (odds ratio, 2.57, 95% CI 1.45- 4.56).
职业压力已成为疾病的主要成因以及对员工心理和社会福祉的重大风险。在此背景下，本研究旨在估算圣埃斯皮里图州维多利亚市辖区内一家银行网络的员工职业压力患病率，及其与社会人口统计学变量和工作特征的关联。这项横断面研究涉及525名银行员工。使用工作压力量表的简版对职业压力进行评估。进行了多变量分析以评估 Karasek 象限与自变量之间的关联。结果发现，大多数银行员工属于“被动工作”象限（34.4%，n = 179），并被认为具有中等职业压力风险。以“低需求工作”类别为标准，压力风险增加与以下因素相关：低教育水平（比值比，3.69，95%置信区间，1.64 - 8.28）、在银行分行工作（比值比，2.55，95%置信区间，1.36 - 4.77）、在银行工作超过五年（比值比，3.32，95%置信区间，1.89 - 5.81）、每日工作时长六小时（比值比，2.72，95%置信区间，1.27 - 5.81），以及主要是低社会支持（比值比，2.57，95%置信区间1.45 - 4.56）。
