Abstract
The sudden outbreak of COVID-19 as a deadly disease worldwide has caused widespread psychological problems as well as physical problems. Due to the importance of prevention and control of psychological problems in exposed individuals, the present study was conducted to investigate the perceived stress of medical and non-medical staff in the face of the epidemic of COVID-19 disease. 90.2% of the subjects had moderate job stress and 4.2% had severe stress. The level of stress in students was higher than formal and contract employees. Also, women had more stress than men, and people with medication, people without medication, and people with medical occupations more than non-medical occupations. Vulnerable groups in society, such as women, students, and healthcare workers, need more prevention and care in the COVID-19 crisis, which should be strengthened over time as effective coping strategies and disease epidemic management, access to medical resources, and mental health systems also plan national strategies and first aid in crises through telemedicine and online services.
