Trabalho, Educação e Saúde - TES (Work, Education and Health) is an open access scientific journal, edited by the Joaquim Venâncio Polytechnic School of Health, from Oswaldo Cruz Foundation.
The article addresses the phenomenon of stress and its relationship with the worker and his system. The methodology used was exploratory research with a qualitative approach. A review of the literature was conducted for the years ranging from 2001 to 2012, searching for articles published in Portuguese and English in the Virtual Health Library, SciELO, and MEDLINE databases. These descriptors were used: occupational health, occupational stress, psychological stress, work, intervention and worker health surveillance. After reading the abstracts of 362 articles that were found, 18 were selected and submitted to content analysis. The need to identify, remedy or mitigate the factors that cause this phenomenon was emphasized in order for health promotion activities to be proposed within the workplace aiming to turn it into a source of pleasure for the worker.
