For VALIDITY AND RELIABILITY of questionnaire, 20 persons of the group were chosen for content validity analysis of the questionnaire. For Reliability analysis of the result, Cronbach alpha test and in-cluster correlation test were used. SPSS software version 18 was used for analysis of the data.Result: The mean age of the participants was 30.8 years (SD=4.9) and the average of job tenure in firefighting office was 7.4 years (SD=4.8). In order to reliability analyze the questionnaire, Cronbach alpha coefficient of all influential factors was obtained more than 0.7. In-cluster correlation coefficient of the questionnaire is calculated using retesting on all influential factors. With the exception of Physical Environment and Mental Demands which were about average, all other coefficients were over 0.7, which is a very appropriate result.Conclusion: Considering that VALIDITY AND RELIABILITY factors of the questionnaire were be appropriate, it can be recommended that NIOSH Generic JOB STRESS Questionnaire (GJSQ) can be used as a Valid and Reliable questionnaire for JOB STRESS evaluation in Iran.
