The subject of the post-graduate specialist thesis is the research about the relation between personality traits and stress coping strategies. The sub-goal of the paper was to investigate the relationship between socio-demographic characteristics of respondents and their stress coping strategies. In order to determine these relations, empirical research was conducted through an online questionnaire on a sample of 157 employees, and the collected data was analyzed using the IBM SPSS software package. The results of the research confirmed that people with certain personality traits recognize stress differently and accordingly use different stress coping strategies. More specifically, the research results found that people who score high on the personality traits of agreeableness and openness use more a problem-focused coping strategy. In addition, the research showed that people who score high on the personality traits of agreeableness, openness, and neuroticism use an emotion-focused stress coping strategy more often, while people who score low on the personality traits of extraversion and conscientiousness and score high on the personality trait of neuroticism more often use an avoidance-oriented coping strategy. Additionally, the results of the research confirmed that there is a relationship between respondents' socio-demographic characteristics and strategies they use for dealing with stress. The relationship between stress coping strategies and gender, profession and the number of children of respondents was confirmed, while no relationship was found with age, level of education, years of experience, hierarchical level and marital status. Empirically, the research expands existing knowledge about the relationship between personality traits and strategies for dealing with stress, and enables more targeted and effective psychological interventions, as well as the determination of specific training and development programs that will in turn improve employees' abilities to cope with stress and apply effective strategies for dealing with stress.
