Objective: To determine the levels of anxiety present in the personnel working at the Jorge Álvarez Educational Unit. Method: Descriptive observational. Results and Conclusions: The presence of AT in the personnel working at the Jorge Álvarez Educational Unit reaches 39.8%; however, it is a situation to be addressed in view of the fact that workers consider their mental health affected since the mandatory confinement by Covid-19, a situation that awakens early warnings due to the stress indexes manifested in the personnel after the resumption of classroom work at the educational institution, which generated in the researcher the interest to investigate the problem and thus, establish the existence of AT in the workers.
