Description: We have investigated the presence and intensity of professional stress and burnout syndrome among employees of the oncology departments of the General Hospital (OB) Karlovac and the Tumor Clinic (KZT) Zagreb. The research was conducted as an observational and cross-sectional study on a convenient sample. A higher level of stress among the employees of OB Karlovac and KZT Zagreb was shown by respondents from OB Karlovac (t=2.09; P=0.039). Also, the level of burnout at work is statistically significant among respondents OB Karlovac (t=2.09; P=0.039). No positive correlation was found between gender, age, level of education, as opposed to the length of work experience, on the total experience of stress and the incidence of burnout syndrome. An increase in length of service by a year leads to an expected increase in burnout at work by an average of 2.79. The parameter is statistically significant (t=2.04; P=0.022). It was found that a statistically significant majority of medical personnel do not take anxiolytics to help them perform their duties normally (χ2=51.56; df=1; P
