This study investigates trends and patterns in this field using a bibliometric analysis approach. Methods. By analyzing 907 articles from 2013 to 2023, the research aims to explore the evolution, focus, and key contributions of scientific publications related to physical activity and mental health in workers. Bibliometric data were obtained from the Scopus database, and VOSviewer software was used to visualize collaboration networks between researchers, institutions, and emerging research topics. Results. This study analyzes trends, key contributions, and collaboration in research on mental health and physical activity among workers, noting a recent surge in publications reflecting growing interest. Key contributors and impactful works, like Shechter et al.'s (2020) study on healthcare workers' psychological distress during COVID-19, underscore significant advancements, with the United States leading in both productivity and citations globally. Conclusion. Additionally, the study includes a systematic review of the literature to map potential future research directions based on current trends, offering valuable insights for future scholars and practitioners. © 2025, Society of Aging and Physical Activity (SAPA).
