This article analyzes the current state of the preventive system aimed at preventing and reducing professional and pedagogical deformation in higher education teachers. The issue of professional deformation began to be studied in the 20s-30s of the 20th century. In this regard, one can see scientific research that studied the problems of professional aspiration, ensuring labor reliability, increasing work capacity, as well as situations related to unfavorable conditions in professional activity. Professional deformation is a negative change in the cognitive, behavioral and motivational sphere of a specialist as a result of the influence of external and internal factors in professional activity. During the study, the main causes of professional deformation, its impact on teachers and existing preventive measures were studied. Based on the results obtained, practical recommendations were developed to propose effective preventive measures aimed at reducing professional deformation. The results of the study will serve to increase the professional well-being and effective work of teachers in the higher education system.
