The purpose of this study was to identify job stressors and related factors in newly employed nurses. A cross-sectional, descriptive research design was used for this study. A total of 107 newly employed nurses were recruited from one medical center in Taichung. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire. The results revealed seven job stressors ranking in the order of stress level as professional knowledge, skills, work process, patients and their families, environment, workload, and peer group. The nurses that don't have any work experience were found to have higher job stress for all job stressors (p＜.05~.001). Higher job stress was found in six stressors (excluding peer group) in those sent to the miscellaneous wards than in those sent to other wards of single specialty (p＜.001). Age, years of work experience were negatively correlated with stress from professional knowledge, skills, patients and their families (r=-.2~-.24, p=.00~.04). The number of patients cared by each nurse showed a positive correlation with stress from professional knowledge, skills, work process, workload, peer group, patients and their families (r=.21~.49, p=.000~.01).We suggest that preceptors provide more assistance to newly employed nurses to help them cope with job stress, especially for young nurses who have recently graduated from school and therefore have less work experience.
