Introduction: Nurses working in primary health care are professionals potentially susceptible to the development of stress. In their daily lives, they face conflicting situations such as overwork and accumulation of tasks that cause physical and mental strain. Objetive: To analyze the perception of Brazilian nurses working in primary health care about the contribution of stress in the workplace. Methodology: Descriptive study with a quantitative approach, carried out with nurses working in primary health care in a municipality in the southern region of Brazil, with the summary version of the Job stress scale being a data collection instrument. The results of this study were analyzed according to the Karasek Demand-Control model. Results: 28 nurses participated in the study, predominantly women (92.80%), married or living with a partner (67.85%), with children (64.28%), aged 30 to 41 years (53.57%) . In general, the nurses investigated were professionals who had worked for a long time in the same sector, with a double shift; demonstrated to perceive themselves subject to stressful situations, with high control over them; they were not perceived to be influenced by the stress contribution in their work environment; and demonstrated social support by bosses and colleagues to be relevant. Linear correlations of Person between the predominant sociodemographic and occupational variables, were not significant.Conclusions: Although the studied population works in a sector with high psychological demand, which contributes to the triggering of global stress, they are professionals who have high control over the work situation.
