Health professionals are exposed to stress, being vulnerable to Burnout syndrome when coping mechanisms are not developed or are insufficient. This study aimed to provide reflections on stress in the work process from the perspective of the Family Health team in Feira de Santana (Bahia, Brazil). It was a qualitative, exploratory and descriptive study carried out with 11 professionals from a Family Health team who answered individual interviews, and whose responses were submitted to content analysis. The results point to a limited understanding of stress, with negative aspects polarized. The stressors identified deal with individual, collective, and institutional aspects, and the characteristics of the work. Coping mechanisms were observed and there are signs of burnout in some professionals. The study indicates that stress has impaired the work process of the Family Health workers and that strategies to cope with it must be implemented.
