“…This study is the first to nationally evaluate the profile of food handlers that work in CRs in Brazil. Most of the workers were female (63.1%), similarly to data in most studies already performed in some Brazilian states with food handlers [27,45,[47][48][49]. In addition, most of the CR food handlers present a low level of education (53.3% with complete or incomplete elementary school), following other studies that commonly report low educational levels of food handlers [50][51][52][53][54][55][56].…”

“…From all of the 1062 Brazilian CR food handlers, 559 (52.6%) agreed to participate. Therefore, the sample presented the power of 96.8% and 99.9% to identify the prevalence of overweightness and hypertension, the most prevalent pathologies among food handlers in this category, considering, respectively, the overweightness prevalence of 60.8% [45] and 29% of hypertension [46] for the definition. Table 1 shows the NCD status, the socio-demography, and the anthropometric profile of low-income food handlers that work in the Brazilian CRs.…”

“…The reported author states that in a study which 45 women with mild obesity presented difficulties at work, dissatisfaction with appearance, problems in social relationships and difficulty in carrying out activities. [16] There is a difficulty to perform a health self-assessment with the advance of age and this is consistently observed, being interpreted as a result of increased comorbidities and functional disabilities. The reduction on the prevalence of self-assessment of health as excellent or very good with relation to age did not occur in the 80 years or older segment.…”

“…Nesse contexto, uma alimentação desequilibrada pode comprometer a produtividade de trabalhadores, prejudicar o sistema de defesa contra patologias (o que assume particular importância pelo fato de atuarem em ambiente hospitalar), bem como aumentar os riscos de acidentes de trabalho [11,12]. Além disso, este desequilíbrio pode representar um risco para o desenvolvimento de doenças crônicas não transmissíveis (DCNT), como a obesidade, hipertensão e diabetes [13].…”
