Work force aging generates the need to develop studied with the purpose to evaluate work capacity. The objective of this study was to analyze the work capacity of the nursing aides of a public health institute. A cross-sectional study was developed on the work capacity of these professionals regarding their demographic, work and lifestyle characteristics (n=241). A univariate logistic regression analysis was performed with inadequate work capacity (score below 37) as the dependent variable. There was an association with age (the eldest), work time at the institution (the oldest), body mass index (obesity) and item 1 of the work capacities index: present work capacity. This information can be used to create preventive measures and restore work capacity.
Resumo Introdução: o trabalho ocupa um lugar importante na vida do indivíduo e, dependendo da forma como é organizado e executado, pode gerar satisfações ou insatisfações. O método mais utilizado para avaliar a satisfação no trabalho tem sido a aplicação de instrumentos de medida. Objetivo: realizar a adaptação cultural do instrumento Job Satisfaction Survey para utilização no contexto dos trabalhadores brasileiros. Método: o procedimento de adaptação cultural do instrumento constou das seguintes etapas: (1) Tradução independente por dois tradutores; (2) Síntese das traduções por um terceiro tradutor e especialistas; (3) Retrotradução por outros dois tradutores independentes; (4) Revisão por um comitê de especialistas; (5) Verificação do Índice de Validade de Conteúdo; (6) Pré-teste com trabalhadores de Enfermagem; (7) Adequações finais do instrumento. Resultados: foram obtidas as equivalências semântica, idiomática, cultural e conceitual entre a versão traduzida e a versão original e observou-se facilidade de entendimento e aceitação dos itens do questionário no contexto dos trabalhadores da Enfermagem. Conclusão: a análise do comitê de especialistas e o pré-teste demonstraram que os itens são pertinentes à cultura brasileira e avaliam a dimensão proposta pelo instrumento original.

Aim:To evaluate the psychometric properties of the Psychological Empowerment Instrument among Brazilian nurses.Background: The Psychological Empowerment Instrument-Brazil is a structured questionnaire that aims to measure the psychological empowerment in the work environment. Method:A methodological study involving 219 nurses. Confirmatory factor analysis was conducted to evaluate the factor structure validity of the Psychological Empowerment Instrument-Brazil. Model fit indices and saliences of factor loadings were assessed. The convergent validity was estimated using the average variance extracted and composite reliability. The correlational analysis was verified using the Spearman Correlation between the Psychological Empowerment Instrument-Brazil and other specific tools. Discriminant validity, internal consistency, test-retest and floor/ceiling effects were also assessed. Results: Factor structure indices of the second-order hierarchical model were [λ = 0.47-0.84; χ 2 /df = 1.84, GFI = 0.93, CFI = 0.96, TLI = 0.94, RMSEA = 0.06 (90% CI = 0.04-0.08)]. Model refinement was not required. All subscales presented suitable average variance extracted, composite reliability and Cronbach's alpha, except the Impact subscale (0.39; composite reliability = 0.65, α = 0.63). All correlations between Psychological Empowerment Instrument-Brazil and the other questionnaires were significant. Conclusion: Psychometric properties of the Psychological Empowerment Instrument-Brazil were suitable when applied to Brazilian nurses. Implications for nursing management.: Psychological Empowerment Instrument-Brazil supports the evaluation of the empowerment level, as well as the applicability of the psychological empowerment in the work environment of Brazilian nurses.

The structural empowerment preceded the psychological and occurs when people have access to information, support, resources | 405 SCHUMAHER Et Al.

Purpose To evaluate the psychometric properties of the Obstacles to Return-to-Work Questionnaire (ORTWQ) among Brazilian workers on sick-leave due to musculoskeletal disorders. Methods Confirmatory factor analysis was conducted to evaluate the factor structure validity of the ORTWQ. Model fit indices and salience of factor loadings were assessed. The convergent validity was estimated using the Average Variance Extracted (AVE) and Composite Reliability (CR). The correlational analysis was verified using the Spearman Correlation between the ORTWQ and other specific tools. Discriminant Validity, internal consistency, stability (test-retest) and floor/ceiling effect were also assessed. Results A total of 301 participants completed the ORTWQ with a mean age of 45.0 (9.9) years. After refinement, the factor structure indexes of the oblique model were [χ/df = 1.8; CFI = 0.9; TLI = 0.9; PGFI = 0.7; PCFI = 0.8; RMSEA = 0.05 (90% CI 0.05-0.06)]. Only Depression, Physical Workload and Perceived Prognosis subscales presented suitable AVE indices: 0.63, 0.51 and 0.52 respectively. The correlations between ORTWQ and the other questionnaires were appropriate for almost all subscales. Reliability evaluation showed adequate estimates for all subscales except for the Worry Due to Sick-Leave (CR = 0.45; α = 0.44; ICC = 0.69). A higher order hierarchical model is suggested, in order to estimate an overall score to ORTWQ in a Brazilian population. Conclusions The psychometric properties of the Brazilian version of the ORTWQ were evaluated and after refinement, the validity, reliability and floor/ceiling effects indexes were suitable when applied to a sample of Brazilian workers on sick-leave due to musculoskeletal disorders. However, the factor structure presented some issues regarding convergent and discriminant validity.
