Around of 71.4% of articles were guided by quantitative methods and the remaining of them by mixed methods. It wasn’t found qualitative articles in this research. Regarding psychosocial risk at work, it was identified high prevalence’s of workload, substance abuse, job strain, emotional and job exhaustion, and hostile workplace. Respect with mental health prevalence’s, three documents related with the topic had agreement according with high percentages of depressive’s episodes. The documents disposed in databases only approached to mental health topic as a variable derivate of general status of health and it wasn’t a principal focus of the research.
