The development and maintenance of the health and safety conditions of the police, which are a professional group exposed to stress and committed to ensuring the safety of the community, is of great importance not only for this professional group but also for the whole community. The security members experience a number of problems as a result of exposure to various physical and psychosocial risk factors found in the work environment, primarily problems arising from the nature of the work and the working conditions. The aim of this study is to identify the stress sources that police officers, one of the risky professions, face, the psychological symptoms of stress and the styles of anger, and to examine the relationship between them. In the interpretation of the data obtained by the survey method applied to the 5725 security member, the t test for the relationship tests, the Kruskal Wallis H-Test, the regression and the correlation analysis were used to measure differences. To identify stress sources, the Stress Source Scale, the SCL-90 Psychological Symptoms Screening Test, the Continuous Anger Style Scale, was used to measure psychological symptoms, and to determine persons’ continuous levels of anger and the styles of anger. The study found a meaningful relationship between stress sources, psychological symptoms and anger styles (p<0,05) It is also understood that gender variables have an effect on stress sources and anger styles, and that age, education level and age are also related to stress sources. On the other hand, it has been revealed that the effects of symptoms on the level of anger are greater than the sources of stress.
