“…In this regard, existing findings concerning economic and health indicators already suggest that women professionals experience unfavorable health situations when compared to men, and in most cases, this disadvantage among women cannot be explained solely by clinical and biological variables. In this context, QOL can be a good indicator in analyzing the health situation of formal workers, as it can help in identifying individual and collective health needs that should be prioritized for the planning and resource allocation to mitigate the challenges in the area of occupational health [ 7 , 8 ].…”

Background: This study aimed to assess the quality of life associated with gender inequalities in formal workers and to determine the effect of sociodemographic, clinical, and behavioral factors on the quality of life (QOL). Methods: This cross-sectional study involved 1270 workers. Quality of life was measured using the EUROHIS-QOL 8-Item and assessed in terms of psychological, environmental, social, and physical domains, while demographic, socioeconomic, behavioral, and clinical variables served as explanatory variables. Analyses were performed using an ordinal logistic regression model whose significance level was 5%. Results: Of the participants, 80.2% were men, and 19.8% were women; the mean age was 34 (standard deviation: ±10) and 32 (±9) years, respectively. In all prediction scenarios, men were more likely to have a higher quality of life, especially in the physical (odds ratio: 2.16; 95% confidence interval: 1.60–2.93) and psychological (odds ratio: 2.09; 95% confidence interval: 1.51–2.91) domains. Conclusions: Men and women had significantly different levels of quality of life, and sociodemographic, clinical, and behavioral variables partially clarified these differences, which were possibly established by a socio-historical process of construction of the work role determined by gender issues.

“…Additional factors were lack of specific times for daily meals and for end of working hours, lack of health insurance support, lack of time for rest and leisure, long working hours added to housework hours, and occurrence of a greater number of RSIs, while workshop sewers had access to ergonomic environments, workplace stretching, and predetermined meal breaks. 35 , 36 Similarly, in the study conducted by Costa et al, 13 women had poorer QoL because of extra working hours, and, in the aforementioned study of sewers, 95% of the sample was composed of women.…”

Workers in general have their quality of life affected; however, in the industrial setting, they are exposed to poor and unhealthy conditions in their workplaces and to different occupational hazards depending on their role, sector of activity, and climatic conditions. This study aimed to analyze the quality of life of Brazilian industrial workers. This is an integrative review. The PICo strategy was used to prepare the research question, and each letter represents one component of the question - population (P), workers; interest (I), quality of life; and context (Co), Brazilian industry. The search and selection process was conducted in the Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO) and PubMed databases. The search was conducted from August to September 2019, and studies published in the past 10 years were selected. In most workers, work-related QL deficits were identified mainly in the domains of general health and vitality in the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) and of social relationships and environment in the World Health Organization Quality of Life short version (WHOQOL-Bref). The factors that represented risks for quality of life included exposure to noise in the workplace, repetitive strain injury/work-related musculoskeletal disorders, occupational low back pain, occupational stress, and work-related fatigue. Few studies assessing quality of life of industrial workers were found. The reviewed studies showed that quality of life deficits are related to vitality, physical functioning, general health, environment, and psychological health of these workers.

O ambiente de trabalho e todos os elementos que o compõem interferem de forma direta nas pessoas que nele estão inseridas. A ergonomia visa a saúde, segurança e satisfação do trabalhador, por isso, tem como objetivo proporcionar condições de trabalho favoráveis, saudáveis e seguras ao homem, lidando com um largo escopo de problemas relevantes ao design em relação à avaliação de sistemas de trabalho. Portanto, este artigo tem como objetivo apresentar uma fundamentação teórica e específica a respeito de intervenções ergonômicas no trabalho em olarias artesanais, que são empreendimentos inseguros, insalubres e de poucos recursos. Para obter as referências necessárias ao entendimento do tema, uma revisão narrativa de literatura foi realizada e os dados apresentados refletem a situação das olarias, constatando-se que as características desse tipo de trabalho provocam impactos negativos em seus trabalhadores, sendo importante mais estudos neste campo.
