It also sought to identify the prevailing levels of these two variables within this specific professional category.  Methodology: The researchers adopted a descriptive correlational approach. A comprehensive survey (total census) was conducted on a community of 104 workers. Data were collected using two main scales: a Vocational Maturity scale and a Mental Health scale, following the verification of their validity and reliability (Cronbach's Alpha = 84.4%). Data were analyzed using SPSS V26.  Key Findings: 1. There is no statistically significant correlation between vocational maturity and mental health among the study sample (r = -0.164, Sig = 0.097). 2. The level of vocational maturity among workers is high, particularly in terms of responsibility and commitment. 3. The level of mental health issues (anxiety, depression, and frustration) is moderate to high, indicating significant psychological pressure. 4. There is a severe lack of psychosocial support within the work environment, which directly impacts the workers' well-being. 5. The results of the one-way analysis of variance ($ANOVA$) showed no statistically significant differences in the level of professional maturity due to the occupational category, but rather due to professional experience and educational level." 6. :"The results of the one-way analysis of variance ($ANOVA$) showed no statistically significant differences in the level of mental health due to the occupational category variable, but rather due to the quality of relationships at work, the level of job security, professional experience, or the personal characteristics of the individuals." Recommendations: The study recommends establishing a psychological support unit at the port, improving physical working conditions, and organizing training sessions on stress management to help maritime workers cope with the unique rigors of their profession.otherVocational MaturityMental HealthMaritime WorkersPort of Beni SafThesis
