Abstract: Representing the central point of many heated theoretical debates, the concept of stress is often used, with meanings that are more or less concrete. It does not belong anymore only to medicine, although it owes a lot to the researchers who focused their efforts for defining the concept, for identifying the determining factors and for drawing up modalities of protection against the negative effects. The seventy years of investigations carried out by the stress researchers offer today plenty of data that help us understand the biological and psychological reality and orientate the individual and organizational actions. In the following lines it will be highlighted the way management identified the information regarding stress and the actions initiated in the view of reducing its destructive effects.
