This study came up with the main objective to inspect psychosocial health and wellbeing factors that affect the work ability of hairdresser. A cross-sectional and descriptive study was carried out in which 106 hairdressers workers were surveyed. To this end, the Work Ability Index (WAI) and Copenhagen Psychosocial Questionnaire (COPSOQ) questionnaires were administered. The results demonstrate that the sociodemographic variables gender, age and educational attainment are influenced by psychosocial health factors. The average WAI score among workers was 40,7 points (SD=7,2), ranging from 24 to 49 points and the prevalence of good capacity for work was 77,36%. Regarding to the symptoms of stress were obtained in difficulty to think clearly (16,03%), pain or problems in the stomach (13,21%), tension in various muscles (15,1%), difficulty making decisions (13,21%), lack of initiative (8,49%) and tightness or chest pain (9,43%) in respondents. The administrators of beauty salons should be aware of the results obtained with this category of workers so little studied (but very prominent today) to pore in creating an environment conducive to maintaining the work capacity and well-being of hairdressers, mitigating the problems encountered with this study.

“…Tal como já foi referido, para além da importância da participação no trabalho, o apoio social é outro fator a considerar. A falta de coesão social tem consequências negativas no stress e na saúde dos trabalhadores, diminui o rendimento e afeta a perceção do trabalho, uma vez que é experienciado como negativo, o que poderá levar à falta de motivação e ao absentismo (DeVries & Wilkerson, 2003). Tal indica que a existência de uma boa relação entre os diferentes elementos do grupo de trabalho são um fator central na saúde pessoal e organizacional (Ladeira, 1996).…”

RESUMOO excessivo stress ocupacional experienciado pelos trabalhadores tem sido fortemente associado ao aparecimento de doenças e prejuízo da saúde mental, interferindo na sua capacidade para o trabalho, produtividade, bem-estar e qualidade de vida. A análise exaustiva do presente trabalho seguiu a orientação da sistematização e interpretação de modelos específicos de stress ocupacional, dissecando-os e expondo a sua génese construtiva e congénere entre eles, contribuindo para a possível construção de baselines preditoras de indução de stress. Apesar de alguns pontos de coincidência, os fatores que originam a resposta de stress apresentam algumas discrepâncias entre si, sendo, na sua maioria, ao nível do objeto que consideram como fonte de stress. A adequada compreensão destes processos tem, também, como objetivo contribuir para o desenvolvimento de programas de prevenção primária ao nível da saúde ocupacional e de metodologias de intervenção organizacional, com a finalidade de promover uma adequada qualidade de vida laboral, potenciando o desempenho e o sucesso no trabalho e o incremento da capacidade para o trabalho.Palavras chave: Stress.
