Rezumat: In the professional environment, psychosocial risk factors are related to mental health issues, illustrated by structural aspects of the workplace and operational methodologies that can impact the mental wellbeing of educators. Teachers' mental well-being profoundly affects cognitive processes, interpersonal communication, educational achievement, and personal development. A state of well-being promotes resilience and enhanced self-confidence, constituting essential components for active engagement in social and professional spheres. The study analyzed psychosocial factors such as role conflicts, material support for teachers regarding technological equipment, teaching resources, unlimited access to software programs, and high-speed Internet. Factors related to the professional training of teachers to use software products and hardware and retraining training to work in emergencies, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, have also been studied. The trend is to improve the situation in terms of technological equipment and professional learning, although some of the teachers experienced some difficulties in using the software and hardware. The second aspect of research is stressogenic factors such as mental and emotional exhaustion, which are directly related to burnout, which is at medium to low levels. The results of the Maslach test showed a low percentage of burnout among Bulgarian teachers, which is a positive phenomenon regarding teachers' mental health.
