-Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate whether rotating shift work increases occupational stress in nurses. Methods: This study measured shift work scheduling and occupational stress by using the Effort-Reward Imbalance model with selfreported questionnaires in a sample of 654 female nurses. Results: Overcommitment risk was higher in nurses who worked rotating shifts than in those who worked day/non-night shifts (OR, 2.16; 95% CI, 1.03−4.66). However, an effort/reward imbalance was not directly associated with work schedules (OR, 1.88; 95% CI, 0.87−4.35). Among nurses working rotation rotating shifts, those who had 2 days off after their most recent night shifts showed an alleviated risk of overcommitment (OR, 0.52; 95% CI, 0.32−0.82), but those who had worked for at least one series of 7 consecutive work days per month had an increased risk of effort/reward imbalance (OR, 2.75; 95% CI, 1.69−4.48). Additionally, those who had little or no participation in planning working hours and shift scheduling and worked overtime at least three times per week during the preceding 2 months tended to have high stress. Conclusions: The

“…In a Sino-Japanese joint venture, Chinese employees often work under Japanese management styles, with emphasis on quality and strict operation standards, and experience conflicts arising from cultural differences, which may lead a higher burnout level. Evidence from earlier studies suggested a positive association between burnout and work-related stress 3,16) . However, there has not been any study on the relationship between occupational stress, burnout and turnover intention among employees in Sino-Japanese joint ventures in the literature.…”

“…Nesta amostra o homicídio ocupou a terceira posição nas causas externas, sendo mais prevalente em número absoluto nos advogados (cinco advogados contra três médicos). Este achado pode ser fundamentado simplesmente pelo maior número de óbitos em advogados em relação aos médicos ou mesmo pela maior exposição profissional dos advogados a situações conflituosas e de risco 29 . Ressalta-se que essa exposição profissional não pode ser generalizada a todos as especialidades de advogados.…”

As causas externas apresentam distribuição desigual entre diferentes grupos populacionais. Esta pesquisa buscou verificar se há diferença nos óbitos por causas externas entre médicos e advogados, profissões de um mesmo grupo socioeconômico. Foi realizado um estudo transversal dos laudos de necropsias realizadas em médicos e advogados no IML-BH no período de 2006 a 2012. Foram analisados 107 laudos, sendo 39 de médicos (36%) e 68 de advogados (64%). Em ambos os grupos houve predominância de indivíduos do sexo masculino, com idade superior a 49 anos e a maioria vivia sozinha. As principais circunstâncias dos óbitos nos dois grupos foram acidentes de trânsito, suicídio e homicídio, nesta ordem de prevalência. Como não houve diferença estatística na maioria das variáveis analisadas e o poder do estudo foi inferior a 80%, não foi possível com os dados avaliados afirmar diferenças nos óbitos por causas externas entre as duas ocupações. Apesar deste estudo não apresentar poder suficiente para demonstrar associação entre a circunstância do óbito e a profissão, sua relevância encontra-se na descrição do perfil epidemiológico destes profissionais em relação às mortes por causas externas. O seu conhecimento pode orientar ações preventivas em relação a essa causa de mortalidade, contribuindo para medidas de saúde pública.
