The tests were applied to a group of 60 police officers from Brăila, the subjects being predominantly men. The group was divided into 30 borderline policemen and 30 forensic technicians, aged between 28 and 53, and with between 6 and 30 years of work experience. Given the presented, the objectives of the paper are: to find out the existence of a difference between forensic technicians and borderline policemen in terms of work ethic and also what influence stress has on it. Following the statistical calculations, all objectives were achieved, all hypotheses being valid. There are significant differences in the dimensions of work ethic, obligation and avoidance, border policemen having significantly lower scores. In terms of correlations, work ethic correlated negatively with stress, scores obtained by both specializations.
