A quantitative descriptive correlational study was developed. The study area was a Labor Medical Clinic and the sample consisted of 26 people.

No statistically significant association was found between those with metabolic syndrome and work stress, p = 0.803. The predominant positions with the highest level of stress were: laboratorians, manager and administrator, physicians and nurses. The area with the highest level of stress (moderate) was the laboratory and medical management with an intermediate level of stress.
