ABSTRACT:

If you can make it here, you’re undoubtedly stressed out. No one was really surprised when a recent medical study suggested that New Yorkers are at the highest risk in the United States for developing heart disease because of stress.

If New York City were a factory, OSHA – the Occupational Safety and Health Administration – would have to close it down, citing adverse working conditions.

Here then are the 10 most stressful jobs in New York City:

1. Firefighter

2. Cabbie

3. Doctor

4. Policeman

5. Executive

6. Mayor

7. Publicist

8. Broker
