Objective: To identify the relationship between Work Stress and Work Well-being in a sample of health personnel from District 18D04 of Tungurahua in the context of Covid-19. Methodology: Descriptive, quantitative, correlational and cross-sectional study using the Labor Stress scales of the International Labor Organization (ILO) and the General Labor Wellbeing Questionnaire. Participants: 334 health professionals, classified between men (29.3%) and women (70.7%), between 23 and 63 years old (M= 34.7 years old) who carry out their work activities in District 18D04 of the province of Tungurahua. Results: The levels of Work Stress are low, with a presence of 9.4% of risk cases. Occupational Well-being is moderate-high and with 5.7% of risk cases. Work Stress is moderately and positively related to the Side Effects factor (somatization, exhaustion and alienation) of Work Well-being, but not with Psychosocial Well-being. Conclusions: Work Stress covaries with the collateral effects of Work Well-being in the participating sample.
