    Abstract
    This study identifies and prioritizes aspects of work and personal life as sources of stress for employees of a city fire department. Surveys were completed by employees (n = 147) and their romantic partners (n = 62). A total of 22 of 33 areas were rated as stressful by a third or more of employees, including personal life areas of maintaining relationships with a romantic partner, with children, and caring for elders. Few significant differences were found between employee and partner perspectives on what was stressful for the employee. When asked to judge the stress level of areas as experienced by other employees, 10 areas were thought to be more stressful for others than for oneself. Implications for coping processes are discussed. Study conducted by Optum Employee Assistance Program for Minneapolis Fire Department (Minnesota).
