12. Correctional officer
Correctional officers come in about halfway through our list of most stressful jobs in the world. These folks have the obligation to make sure everything is smooth-sailing in prison. If you think about it, this job has everything you need to stress yourself out. The environment can be distressing, hazards come plenty, and the pay is somehow not what you would expect for such a stressful job.
