“…It must be considered that an individual who is under the effect of alcohol and drugs in his workplace is more prone to unsafe acts that can lead to work accidents due to lack of attention or loss of reflexes. The use of tobacco and its byproducts leads to a variety of diseases, increases absence in the workplace and is also associated with mortality and morbidity (Lotufo, 2007). So, the use of alcohol, drugs, and tobacco can lead to the occurrence of work accidents, illnesses, withdrawals, and reduction of productivity.…”

Purpose: To identify the influence of physical and psychosocial stress and health-related factors on the occurrence of work-related accidents, based on the National Health Survey (NHS) conducted in Brazil in 2013, through the execution of a retest in the Brazilian context, according to the model elaborated by Rommel, Varnaccia, Lahmann, Kottner, and Kroll (2016). Originality/value: Brazil has a high rate of workplace accidents. This retest, applied to the Brazilian context based on the German model of Rommel et al. (2016), allows obtaining information concerning the factors that may increase the chances of workplace accidents. Design/methodology/approach: Study with secondary data collected from the National Health Survey (Fiocruz, 2013). The model of Rommel et al. (2016) was used with the set of four blocks of variable factors. Logistic regression explored the physical, psychosocial, and health-related stress factors that may be more likely to occur in the workplace. Findings: 2.8% of the individuals have been involved in some work accident. Model 5 is the most explanatory of occupational accidents and factors such as high school level of education (OR = 2.082), full-time work (OR = 4.814), having three or more jobs (OR = 2.593), exposure to radiation, asthma (OR = 4.880), and alcohol consumption (OR = 4.620), according to each block typified, which most significantly increase the chances for the occurrence of work accidents. Managers and legislators should observe the factors that increase the chances of an accident occurring in order to develop prevention policies or actions.

“…Sobre o conforto acústico, LOTUFO et al (1981) ressalta ainda a qualidade acústica proporcionada no interior das cúpulas, a geometria favorece que o som seja reverberado dentro delas e que se torne uma barreira para os sons de fora. No caso do hotel, esta qualidade pode ser aproveitada dentro das cúpulas para o convívio social com apresentações musicais e a privacidade pode ser garantida com a distância dada entre estas cúpulas.…”

RESUMOEste trabalho se propõe a apresentar um estudo sobre os aspectos ergonômicos tais como percepção ambiental, acessibilidade e conforto térmico, dentre outros, do hotel EcoCamp na Patagônia relativos a análise do ambiente construído, porém, atentando também para os aspectos sustentáveis, por acreditar que há uma tendência/urgência no cenário atual em colocar em foco estas questões e creditá-las de igual importância, colaborando assim com os estudos da Ergonomia do Ambiente Construído que ainda oferece muitas oportunidades para se desenvolver, e também tornar mais conhecidas as estruturas geodésicas e suas vantagens num contexto de sustentabilidade. ABSTRACT This scientific research aims to present a study on the ergonomic aspects such as environmental awareness, accessibility and thermal comfort, among others, about the hotel EcoCamp in Patagonia on the analysis of the built environment, however, paying attention also to the sustainable aspects, believing there is a tendency and urgency in the current scenario to put into focus these issues and credit them of equal importance, thus contributing to the studies of Ergonomics Built Environment which still offers many opportunities to develop, and also make the geodesic structures best known and its advantages in a context of sustainability. INTRODUÇÃOPara IIDA (2005) a Ergonomia é o estudo das interações das pessoas com a tecnologia, a organização e o ambiente, objetivando intervenções e projetos que visem melhorar a segurança, o conforto, o bem-estar e a eficácia das atividades humanas. Em se tratando de ambiente, ele é considerado ergonomicamente adequado quando atende às necessidades físicas e cognitivas das pessoas que o vivenciam.
