الملخص EN

This research aims to identify the impact of workplace stress on the job commitment of nurses at Jordanian university hospitals.

the study applies a descriptive and analytical approach.

the research focused on a population of 917 nurses working at university hospitals in Jordan (king Abdullah hospital and uni-versity of Jordan hospital).

the researchers distributed 276 questionnaires and retrieved 264 questionnaires valid for research purposes.

the research concluded that there is a high level of workplace stress facing nurses in university hospitals in Jordan, and a high level of job commitment.

the nurses in university hospitals in Jordan have a medium level of emotional and normative commitment, and there is a statistically significant negative effect of work pressures on job commitment (significance level 0.05).

the results indicate a need to work seriously on controlling workplace stress among nurses and re-ducing it by giving these nurses the needed rest time and ensuring that the work time allocated to nurses is commensurate with the tasks assigned to them, practicing appropriate oversight over supervisors to ensure that their orders are not conflicted which strengthen the links among nurses and their supervisors.

respon-dents also expressed the need for job security.
