Stress management aims to improve one's physical and mental health while reducing the health
risks of stress. This study wanted to figure out the stress factors that impacted police officers.
This study aims to determine how police officers addressed stress during the COVID-19
pandemic. Determine the availability of work-related stressors that police officers encountered
during the COVID-19 pandemic and identify preferred coping mechanisms. This study used a
qualitative descriptive research design, and five (5) randomly selected officers from Alfonso
Municipal Police Station participated in this qualitative research. The main objective of this
study was to comprehend what they had experienced and how they perceived what had
happened. To gather the data for this study with formality, the data for this research were
collected using a face-to-face interview. Six (6) emerged themes were drawn from this study,
namely: (1) Worrying about One's Health and Family, (2) Maintenance of Rapport, (3)
Adherence at Work, (4) Infringement of the Law, (5) Leisure Time with Family (6) God
Centered Police officers are overworked during the COVID-19 pandemic, but they are devoted
to their work and spend meaningful time with their families. They keep God in their hearts and
work on self-compassion, even under much stress. This results in worrying about one's health
and family. To overcome the challenge of the pandemic, the other respondents must have an
optimistic perspective and faith in God. The researchers recommend providing nursing
treatments, health protocols, and home-based interventions to reduce sedentary behavior
