<![CDATA[Excessive workload has become a critical factor affecting mental health across various occupational sectors, contributing to increased stress, anxiety, burnout, and diminished job satisfaction. This study examines the systemic factors influencing workload-induced mental health issues, including labor laws, workplace culture, and economic conditions. A systematic review of existing literature was conducted using databases such as Scopus, PubMed, and Google Scholar, focusing on peer-reviewed studies from the past decade. The findings indicate that healthcare professionals, educators, and emergency responders are among the most affected groups, with high workloads leading to severe psychological distress. Furthermore, workplace culture and economic instability exacerbate these effects, making mental health interventions a pressing concern. The study emphasizes the importance of regulatory frameworks, supportive workplace policies, and evidence-based interventions to mitigate workload-related mental health issues. Strategies such as flexible work arrangements, peer support networks, resilience training, and mental health education programs have demonstrated efficacy in reducing burnout and improving employee well-being. The findings highlight the need for further research on long-term workload effects, industry-specific interventions, and cross-cultural analyses to develop tailored policy solutions. Addressing workload-induced mental health problems requires a collaborative effort from policymakers, employers, and researchers to implement sustainable and effective interventions. This study provides valuable insights for designing healthier workplace environments that enhance productivity while safeguarding employees’ mental well-being.]]>
