AB  - OBJECTIVES: The diverse list of tasks and needs related to the SARS-CoV-2 
      pandemic may lead to different professional experiences in nurses working with 
      patients infected with and not infected with SARS-CoV-2. The aim of the study was 
      to measure the professional challenges of nurses working during the SARS-CoV-2 
      pandemic in Poland. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study was conducted in 2021 in a 
      group of 151 nurses. The following scales were used: the Perceived Stress Scale 
      (PSS-10), the General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES), the Impact of Event Scale - 
      Revised (IES-R), the Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire (MSQ-SF), the Areas of 
      Worklife Survey (AWS) and the Maslach Burnout Inventory - Human Services Survey 
      (MBIHSS). RESULTS: Nurses working with patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 showed a 
      positive correlation between workload and emotional exhaustion (rho = 0.26, p = 
      0.02), as well as positive correlations among control, community and 
      depersonalization (rho = 0.25, p = 0.02; rho = 0.23, p = 0.04). Among nurses working 
      with uninfected patients, positive correlations were found among control, 
      community, fairness and emotional exhaustion (rho = 0.40, p = 0.000; rho = 0.41, p = 
      0.000; rho = 0.25, p = 0.03), as well as correlations between control and 
      depersonalization (rho = 0.33, p = 0.01), and among control, community and personal 
      accomplishment (rho = 0.23, p = 0.05; rho = 0.27, p = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS: Nurses 
      working during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic with infected and uninfected patients both 
      experienced a variety of psychosocial challenges in coping with the demands of 
      their work, social relationships and personal life. Int J Occup Med Environ
