“…These same authors discuss that the presence of pain in this age group may be associated to work and working conditions of these people 7 . Studies point to the relationship between chronic pain and ergonomic factors of work, such as repeatability, manual handling of weight and inadequate postures [8][9][10] . There are also evidences that pain onset or maintenance are associated to organizational and psychosocial factors, such as long working hours, high demand, pressure for time and productivity and social working environment [10][11][12] .…”

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:To observe chronic pain prevalence and location, to evaluate psychosocial factors and to investigate the association between psychosocial job aspects and chronic pain. METHODS: Crossover study carried out with 23 professors of two schools of the city of Serrana/SP. Chronic pain prevalence, intensity, duration and anatomic location were evaluated. Job Content Questionnaire was used to evaluate psychosocial factors. Data were submitted to descriptive analysis with absolute and relative frequency measurements, Mann-Whitney test and Spearman correlation coefficient. RESULTS: Musculoskeletal pain was reported by 69.6% (16) of professors, with mean symptom duration of 96.13 months (SD=104.84) and mean intensity of 6.37 (SD=2.41). There has been significant association between chronic pain and sleep hours. With regard to psychosocial factors, 52.2% (12) of professors had poor job control and 52.2% (12) have referred poor social support. CONCLUSION: Chronic pain prevalence was high among professors and worrying psychosocial factors were observed, such as highly demanding job and poor social support. Keywords: Chronic pain, Education, Employees' health, Professors, Psychosocial factors. Psychosocial job factors and chronic pain: analysis in two municipal schools in Serrana/SP RESUMO JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVOS:Verificar a prevalência e localização da dor crônica, avaliar os fatores psicossociais e investigar a associação entre aspectos psicossociais do trabalho e dor crônica. MÉTODOS: Estudo transversal realizado com 23 docentes de duas escolas da cidade de Serrana/SP. Foi avaliada a prevalência, intensidade, tempo e localização anatômica da dor crônica. Para avaliar os fatores psicossociais utilizou-se o Job Content Questionnaire. Os dados foram submetidos à análise descritiva com medidas de frequência absoluta e frequência relativa, teste MannWhitney e o coeficiente de correlação de Spearman. RESULTADOS: 69,6% (16) professores relataram presença de dor musculoesquelética, com tempo médio de sintoma de 96,13 meses (DP=104,84) e intensidade média de 6,37 (DP= 2,41). Observou-se associação significativa entre dor crônica e horas de sono. Em relação aos fatores psicossociais 52,2% (12) dos professores possuíam baixo controle sobre o trabalho, e 52,2% (12) referiu baixo suporte social. CONCLUSÃO: A prevalência de dor crônica foi alta entre os professores e encontrou-se presença de fatores psicossociais preocupantes, como um trabalho de alta exigência e baixo suporte social.

RESUMO -A organização do trabalho e os fatores psicossociais têm sido apontados como responsáveis pelos casos de LER/DORT, estando estes fatores relacionados à atividade dos operadores de máquinas florestais. Diante disso, buscou-se estudar e descrever os fatores de risco ligados a estes aspectos. A pesquisa compreendeu uma variação do sistema de colheita florestal de toras curtas (cut-to-length). O sistema empregado foi harvester e forwarder. A população do estudo foi constituída por operadores de máquinas de colheita de uma empresa de base florestal. Para a descrição dos aspectos da organização do trabalho foram realizadas observações in loco, almejando entender e descrever o dia-a-dia de trabalho, ou seja, o comportamento dos trabalhadores no posto de trabalho. Um questionário foi idealizado e desenvolvido especificamente para o estudo em questão. Ao término da pesquisa pode-se concluir que o trabalho pode ter impactos diferentes em trabalhadores expostos às mesmas condições de trabalho, o que pode ser explicado pelos fatores organizacionais e psicossociais.Palavras Chaves: Organização do Trabalho; Fatores Psicossociais; LER/DORT; Operadores de Máquinas PSYCHOSOCIAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH RISK OF LER/DORT IN OPERATORS OF FOREST HARVESTING MACHINESABSTRACT -Work organization and psychosocial factors have been suggested as responsible for cases of LER/DORT, and these factors related with the activity of forest machine operators. Therefore, the present study aimed to assess and describe the risk factors linked to these aspects. The research included a variation on the system of short log harvesting (cut-to-length). The system used was harvester and forwarder. The study population consisted of harvesting machine operators from a forest-based company. For the description of work organization aspects, in situ observations were performed, aiming to understand and describe the day-to-day work, i.e., the behavior of the workers on the job. A questionnaire was designed and developed specifically for the study. At the end of the study we concluded that the work could have different impacts on workers exposed to the same working conditions, which can be explained by psychosocial and organizational factors.

“…According to the Brazilian Ministry of Health [3] , the textile industry ranks fifth in WRMSD cases. Corroborating this statistic, the present study found that exposure to occupational risk factors is perceived as a serious problem by the workers and is related to regions with a higher incidence of musculoskeletal complaints.…”

Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WRMSD) include a list of inflammatory and degenerative diseases characterized by the presence of musculoskeletal symptoms, compensatory posture changes and functional disabilities. The objective of this study was to evaluate the kinetic/functional characteristics of textile plant workers, their level of exposure to risk factors and the contribution these make to musculoskeletal symptoms. The sample of 42 workers answered the Nordic Questionnaire and the Job Factors Questionnaire. The kinetic/functional characteristics of each worker were verified by a blinded evaluator. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Pearson's correlation. Musculoskeletal symptoms were more prevalent in the spinal region and upper limbs. The exposure levels to risk factors were identified as a serious problem. Postural disorders, musculoskeletal symptoms and risk factors were correlated (P 0.05).
