The results showed that the stress of working mothers who lived in Tanah Jawa Village, Tanah Jawa District, Simalungun Regency was light, namely 93.8% because the majority of working hours of mothers in Tanah Jawa Village were relatively short, namely 5 hours a day, and experienced stress. role as household manager (Mean = 2.64 and SD = 2.076). And the coping used in this study is coping that focuses on problems (Mean = 21.19 and SD = 3.66) while coping that focuses on emotions (Mean = 14.23 and SD = 4.41).
