The purpose of the study was to determine the levels of teacher work stress and its sources in South Sulawesi. This research is is a survey research with teachers in South Sulawesi as the subject of the research. Data were collected using a questionnaire and were analyzed using the quantitative data analysis. Findings showed that teacher work stress in South Sulawesi was moderate, with a data trend of 41.9%. Teacher work stress is due to six sources of work stress, namely (1) welfare; (2) teaching; (3) students; (4) relationships and conflicts; (5) organizational climate; and (6) the time dimension. The dominant or general source of teacher work stress comes from welfare and teaching factors, while other teacher work stress factors are student factors and organizational climate. Findings from the factor analysis shows that the six indicators are combined in only one factor in the work stress source variable. © 2022, author.
