The article is devoted to the study of stress resistance and the use of coping strategies of behavior among cadets and young specialists of the fire service, which is relevant and practically significant for professional activity. Cadets and young employees of the Ministry of Emergency Situations took part in the study. It was revealed that cadets in a stressful situation rationally assess the possibilities of effective resolution of a problematic situation. In situations involving increased loads, cadets will resort to the use of intellectual rationalization techniques, switching attention to reduce the subjective significance of intractable situations, which reflects a constructive approach to solving difficulties. For young professionals with work experience, they resort to trying to solve the problem by implementing specific actions aimed at changing the situation.
