The social work discipline has started to develop intervention tools in the area of occupational health and safety due to increased numbers of working children and inability to access to the labour rights. The agricultural sector is the sector in which children work the most and have limited access to the basic needs of workers and the rights of working life. It was aimed to discuss social work practices by determining the stress levels of young workers related to their jobs and individual/environmental factors. In this cross-sectional study 383 young people- between 15-18 ages and working as agricultural workers- were selected by cluster sampling method (response rate was 95,8%). The Socio-demographic Information Form and the Seasonal Agricultural Workers Stress Scale were filled out during face to face interviews. 60% of young workers are women. It was found that 37% of the youth were illiterate or did not finish primary school, 95% of them started to work under 14, about 80% worked in jobs that are not suitable  for their ages, 75% of them experienced traumatic events at least once, between 53-81.4% of them reported that they  experienced physical, psychosocial and educational and health stresses.  93.7% of youth indicated that work hours are too long.  93% of them worked uninsured, 88.8% of them did not receive their full and timely payment. The agricultural sector is an area where children should not work because of the physical, mental and social effects of long-term stress due to individual / environmental factors. Social work at micro, mezzo and macro levels are required for children not to work, better risk management and enabling access to the life and working rights.
