Objective: To analyze stress, sleep quality and daytime sleepiness in teachers of basic education. Descriptive exploratory cross-sectional study with quantitative approach, conducted in Natal / RN, from May 2011 to May 2013. Twenty schools were visited, among them public and private, and 98 primary school teachers were approached. Data collection was performed through the instruments: Health and sleep, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSRI), the Epworth / ESE Sleepiness Scale, the Horne and Ostberg Questionnaire, and the LIPP Adult Stress Symptom Inventory (ISSL). The profile of the teachers was: 90 teachers, with a mean age of 43 years (SD ± 9.37 years), married (64%), with children (76%), teaching in a public school (63%), working in only one school (48%) and average teaching time of 19 years. The most frequent chronotype was the intermediate (41%). Were diagnosed with poor sleep quality (44% - x2 = 1.60; p = 0.20) and 36% with excessive daytime sleepiness (x2 = 1.51; p = 0.21). Of the individuals (57% - x2 = 1.96; p = 016), they presented symptoms of stress, mostly in the resistance phase (73% - x2 = 142.3; p = 0.001), followed by the exhaustion phase. (27% - x 2 = 142.3; p = 0.001). Changes in sleep and stress may be due to the working conditions of the teaching professional, which makes it necessary to design new studies on this subject, expanding the sample and assessing the factors that may be contributing to these health conditions in the teaching professional.Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Estresse laboral, ensino básico, saúde do trabalhador, condições de trabalho, satisfação no trabalho.bachelorThesis
