Özet: This study aims to determine the relation between career barriers of teachers, who have previously experienced the phenomenon? and those who work in state schools, and their job satisfaction and stress level. The paper also addresses the predictive power of teacher’s career barriers on their job satisfaction and stress level. To be able to analyse the mentioned relationship, correlational survey model was used in this research. In the study, disproportionate stratified sampling was used and 278 teachers’ notions were taken into consideration. Data were gathered via the application of “Teachers’ Career Barriers Scale” which was developed by Inandi and Gilic (2020), “Sources of Stress Scale”, developed by Pehlivan (1993) and “Job Satisfaction Scale”, developed by Spector (1994) and translated into Turkish by Yelboga (2009). Correlation and regression analysis were used for the collected data. As a result of the study, significant relations were found between teachers’ career barriers, and their job satisfaction and stress levels; teachers’ career barriers significantly have predicted their stress levels and job satisfaction. Besides, one of the fast and effective ways to decrease stress levels and therefore increase job satisfaction of teachers is to eliminate the career barriers they encounter amongst which the most destructive sub-dimensions are union and administrative barriers
