“…Apesar do dado observado com relação ao trabalho em alta exigência, cabe mencionar que outras pesquisas evidenciaram que trabalhadores com alta exigência apresentam as reações mais adversas à saúde, produtividade e satisfa-ção 22,39,40,41 . Portanto, o achado de situação favorável à qualidade de vida em trabalho de alta exigência deve ser analisado cuidadosamente em função das características específicas do tipo de trabalho analisado.…”

Este estudo objetivou avaliar a qualidade de vida de mototaxistas e sua relação com os aspectos psicossociais do trabalho. Estudo epidemiológico, transversal, realizado com 400 mototaxistas do Município de Jequié, Bahia, Brasil. Utilizou-se um formulário contendo dados sociodemográficos, o WHO Quality of Life-Bref Questionnaire (WHOQOL-Bref) e o Job Content Questionnaire (JCQ). Os resultados evidenciaram que mototaxistas com alto controle sobre o trabalho apresentaram melhor percepção de qualidade de vida no domínio psicológico; os que possuem alta demanda psicológica apresentaram melhor percepção de qualidade de vida nos domínios relações sociais e meio ambiente; aqueles com alta exigência e com trabalho ativo apresentaram melhor percepção de qualidade de vida nos domínios relações sociais e meio ambiente. Assim, o ambiente psicossocial do trabalho, e, especialmente, o controle sobre o trabalho, são importantes determinantes da percepção da qualidade de vida dos mototaxistas.

“…Although the relationship between MSP and working conditions of teachers has not been the object of this work, other studies claim that working conditions are determinants of health impairment among teachers. The prevalence of MSP is related to variables of teaching activities, including working time, number of students per class, weekly schedule, physical exertion, heat, furniture, high demand and low decision-making capacity 4,23 . The conditions under which the work is performed by educators can be a source of personal wear with consequent impairment of perception of well-being at work [24][25][26] .…”

Introduction:Musculoskeletal pain is one of the most frequent complaints among teachers, compromising their health and quality of life. Objective: To estimate the prevalence of musculoskeletal pain among teachers, assessing their occurrence according to sociodemographic characteristics, general health and well-being at work. Methods: An exploratory cross-sectional study conducted with 525 teachers. During activities of continuing education, the teachers completed a self-administered questionnaire containing questions about sociodemographic factors, general health, well-being at work and musculoskeletal pain. Results: The overall prevalence of musculoskeletal pain was equal to 73.5%. The most common musculoskeletal pains were localized in the shoulders (31.6%), upper back (27.8%), neck (27.2%) and ankles and/or feet (24.0%). Circulatory and respiratory problems and Common Mental Disorders were associated with pain in the shoulders, upper back, neck and ankles and/or feet. Well-being at work is associated with pain in the shoulders, neck and ankles and/or feet. Conclusion: It is necessary to deepen the knowledge about musculoskeletal pain among teachers, exploring the biological, ergonomic, occupational and psychosocial mechanisms of teaching, as well as invest in practices that improve the relationship of coexistence between workers and activities that enhance the comfort and reduce referred pain.

“…In Brazil, as from the1990s, there has been increase in the number of studies investigating working conditions and health of professors. Cardoso et al 15 , in a census study with 4496 professors of the city of Salvador, have identified that work overload, together with unfavorable psychosocial aspects of the working environment, may lead to the development or worsening of chronic conditions, such as pain. In this study, chronic pain was a relevant health problem among professors, being associated to impaired labor activity with decreased performance or withdrawal from work activities 15 .…”
