Fatores relacionados ao absenteísmo por doença em profissionais de enfermagem

Abstract

ObjectiveTo analyze short-term leaves among the nursing personnel of a university hospital. MethodsStudy population included 965 nursing professionals active on 1 January 2000. Leaves up to 30 days in one year were analyzed. Sickness leaves (one-year aggregate), service demand, and diagnoses were described. Relative risk was estimated through multivariate analysis, using negative binomial distribution. Results Rev Saúde Pública 2003 ; 37(5)Sickness absenteeism, nursing personnel www.fsp.usp.br/rsp Reis RJ dos et al About 65% of workers generated 1,988 appointments, of which 68,6% lead to absence from work. The greatest demand occurred among nursing technicians, women, and statutory workers (OR=1.61; 1.47; 1.53 respectively). Over half the studied population (57.6%) had at least one absence. This corresponds to 87.8% of workers who had physician appointments. These workers generated a total 1,364 leaves of absence -1.41 per worker -and 5,279 workdays were missed. Multivariate analysis was carried out considering each gender separately. An effect was found only for work regime (RR=1,45 e RR=2,43) for both men and women. ConclusionsA relationship exists between absenteeism and work regime. It is necessary to include other variables, such as time working for the company, shift, and number of children.

Such statistics should be taken into account for an adequate dimensioning of the nursing team.…”
