Nowadays, work is a constitutive factor of the subject’s identity and includes/excludes them from social relations, which makes it important for them to be part of the labour environment and, with this, the need for a job that makes sense, considering the current demands placed on workers and the time they dedicate to work. This situation can be experienced through the lens of pleasure or displeasure, depending on the subject’s life history and the organisational structure they are part of. There are many situations that can lead workers to feel emotionally exhausted, to experience physical and muscular pain, to be prone to stress, among other pathologies that are linked to the work environment, leading them to fall ill. However, many companies are not concerned with the health and well-being of their workers, pointing to the need for humanisation within these companies, which have taken on a perverse character. Based on this scenario, this study’s triggering question is: why don’t companies care about workers’ mental health and what is their understanding of this concept?
