5 high-paying jobs for people who don't like stress

by Emma Fierberg and Rachel Gillett on Feb 24, 2017, 11:35 AM

To find jobs with that perfect combination of high pay and low stress, we combed through the Occupational Information Network (O*NET), a US Department of Labor database that compiles detailed information on hundreds of jobs and looked at salary data from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics website

O*NET rates the "stress tolerance" for each job on a scale from zero to 100, where a lower rating signals less stress. (Note: We are not saying these jobs are "stress-free" – they just tend to rate lower than other professions.)

To rate each job, O*NET looks at how frequently workers must accept criticism and deal effectively with high stress at work.

Here are five jobs that pay more than $70,000 a year, on average, and earned a stress tolerance rating of 71 or lower, in order from lowest to highest stress score.
