Health and wellbeing has always been an important concept of relevance for concerned health specialists and workers. The present study envisages to look at the nature of occupational stressors and mental health problems in a group of hospital employees at the Zahedan University of Medical Sciences. The study was carried out on 130 employees chosen from various hospitals in Zahedan. Results reveal that there is a significant relationship between occupational stress, depression and anxiety. No sex differences were observed with regard to psychological problems and level of stress. Furthermore, the level of stress, depresion , as well as anxiety, is higher in the medical staff than the office staff. On the whole, the most stressful factors were: fear of failure at the job, inadequate understanding of employee problems by the management, and low opinion of the assigned job by the employees.
