AB  - Purpose – The purpose of the study is to determine the prevalence of stress and to identify the occupational
stressors among Lebanese police officers.
Design/methodology/approach – Operational Police Stress Questionnaire (PSQ-op) was addressed to 100
randomly selected male Lebanese Police officers. Twenty items from the PSQ-op were run through the principal
component analysis to determine the most significant factors of stress and loading within each of the factors.
Findings – The results indicated that 59% of officers reported moderate stress level and 41% reported
strenuous stress. Principal component analysis identified six independent factors or stress among Lebanese
police officers explaining in total 72.1% of the total variance: excessive workload (30.6%), social-life time
management (12.8%), occupational fitness (9.1%), success-related stress (8.6%), physical and psychological
health (5.8%), and working alone at night (5.2%).
Research limitations/implications – This research approach encountered some limitations so further
research must: use a larger sample size, include female gender and identify other sources of stressors mainly
organizational or job context stressors.
Originality/value – Addressing and understanding stress factors among Lebanese police officers helps
improving awareness and developing individualized treatment strategies leading police officers to engage in
stress-management training to learn coping strategies and use effective tools for preventing stress before it
becomes chronic.
