Abstract: The current context of Romania in what concerns the social protection institutions is characterized by continual transformations aimed at improving and making more efficient service provision. This article has precisely as point of interest this process of change which, in our perspective, has as a starting point the investigation of the concetst of professional identity and performance. The study took place in DAmbovi?a County and the sample was selected from the employees of the General Directorate of Social Assistance and Child Protection. The main objective of the article was to compare the two professions - social workers and psychologists, in the light of the interest shown in regards to professional identity and performance at work. The results confirmed the hypothesis of the research, which brings us closer to the aim pursued through this article - initiating steps in terms of institutional change.
