Abstract: Job stress is linked to mental, physiological and neurobiological alterations that contribute to the development of cognitive problems and the depletion of workers' health. This problem has led to an increase in prolonged periods of work inactivity, the emergence of chronic diseases, unfortunate occupational accidents and even, in the most serious cases, the loss of human lives. This tragic situation could be prevented to a large extent through solid Health Promotion and Education. The paper we present adopts a critical perspective with respect to Health Education, considering it not only as a preventive strategy that disseminates information and seeks to maintain optimal health in the economically active population, but also as an interdisciplinary task that involves the redesign of the work organization. Emphasizes the complexity of this alternative approach and its importance in addressing work-related stress more effectively
