Abstract. This essay addresses the growing incidence of emotional and mental disorders in the workplace, highlighting the importance of preserving the mental and emotional health of employees, strengthening their resilience, and maintaining the integrity of personal identity in adverse organizational contexts. The reflection is based on a qualitative analysis that involved a literature review of various academic sources and an interpretation of constant exposure and pressure, lack of institutional support, and overload of responsibilities in professional environments. The conclusion indicates that preserving mental health at work requires an active stance that combines self-knowledge and emotional intelligence with humanized organizational practices and transparent communication. The balance between individuals' internal strategies and structural changes in organizations is essential to transform adversity into opportunities and promote well-being and work performance.
