Objectives: The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between job stress and physical-mental health among hospital staff. Methods: This study employed a cross-sectional design with non-random purposive sampling. A total of 450 subjects were recruited from three local teaching hospitals in southern Taiwan. A self-administered questionnaire was used to collect information about demographic characteristics, job stress and physical- mental health. Statistical analyses were undertaken using SPSS 13.0. Results: Results showed that the primary cause of stress for hospital staff came from the preparation of hospital accreditation (92.9%) and the second cause of stress was the threat of medical malpractice lawsuits (91.8%). Significant relationships was found between job stress and average hours of sleep, income, marital status, job title, rotation, workplace and sleeplessness. The sub-scale report on the health of hospital staff revealed that the primary health issue was anxiety and sleeplessness, and the secondary issue was physiological symptoms. The analysis also showed that there were significant relationships between physical-mental health and average hours of sleep, income, gender, marital status, job title, workplace and sleeplessness. The higher the working pressure, the worse physical-mental situation. Conclusions: These results may help hospital authorities understand the causes of pressure on their staff. They should also arrange stress-releasing activities to improve employee's physical and mental health.
