A crosssectional survey design was adopted to obtain information from three hundred and twenty-five (325) personnel using purposive sampling method. Job Description Index (Smith, Kendall & Hulin, 1969) and the Depression Anxiety and Stress Scale (Lovidond & Lovibond, 1995) were adopted in the study. Majority of the respondents had moderate level of depression, (n=103, 31.7%) and 31 (9.5%) had extremely severe depression. Also, majority of the respondents had high level of anxiety, 111 (34.2%). Furthermore, majority of the respondents had normal level of stress, 149 (45.8%). In respect to job satisfaction, majority of the respondents had low level of satisfaction with their job, 297 (91.4%). Also, there was a slight majority of the respondents who were satisfied with their pay 165 (50.8%) as compared to those that were not, 160 (49.2%). For promotion, majority were not satisfied, 308 (94.8%). Low satisfaction with supervisor also had a majority of 308 (94.8%) and also, majority were not satisfied with their co-workers, 316 (97.2%). Gender (X=6.660, p<.05), Age (X =6.781, p<.05) and Rank (X =3.799, p<.05) were significant predictors of job satisfaction while psychological distress (X =3.265, p>.05), religion (X =2.635, p>.05) and marital status (X =.640, p>.05) were not found to be significant. Personnel of the NSCDC in Yobe were shown to have feelings of low satisfaction about their job with high psychological distress. Psychosocial interventions should be instituted by the military institution in collaboration with the NSCDC authorities to boost the morale of their personnel deployed to protect the integrity of the nation.

In response to this, the investigators explored the sources and predictors of work related stress among Omani Nurses. Methods Samples were selected through proportionate population sampling (PPS) from five selected tertiary care hospitals. Data were collected through self-administered nursing stress scale. The study included 383 Omani nurses. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data. Results The highest level of work-related stress was on the subscale of workload with a mean score of 8.99 followed by the subscale of emotional issues related to death and dying with a mean of 8.72.
