Objective:To analyze the risks of illnesses related to the work context of nursing
workers in a psychiatric hospital. Method:Cross-sectional and quantitative study, developed in a psychiatric hospital
with 74 nursing workers. The Work Context Assessment Scale was used to
measure the risks of illness at work. Descriptive analyzes were performed
with mean and standard deviation. To test the reliability of the data, the
Cronbach’s alpha test was used. The correlation between the factors of the
work context was tested using the Spearman correlation coefficient. Results:The organization of work was considered serious, social-professional
relationships were considered satisfactory and working conditions were
considered severe for risks of illness at work. The repetitiveness of tasks,
work conditions that pose risks to safety, inadequate furniture and physical
structure of the workplace, and the existence of noise in the work
environment were indicated as severe risks to workers’ health. Conclusion:The factor working conditions is the one that contributes the most to illness
among nursing workers.
Objetivo: analisar a associação entre danos à saúde e qualidade de vida no trabalho de enfermeiros hospitalares. Método: estudo quantitativo, descritivo, transversal. Amostra de 145 enfermeiros. Pareceres da comissão de ética: 1.634.051 e 1.643.912. Utilizaram-se estatísticas descritivas, análises bivariadas, teste do qui-quadrado, cálculo da razão de chance e intervalos de confiança. Resultados: observou-se que o consumo de medicamentos provocado/agravado pelo trabalho aumentou em 2,31 vezes a chance de o enfermeiro ter baixa qualidade de vida no trabalho; transtornos do sono provocados/agravados pelo trabalho aumentou em 3,15 vezes a chance de ter baixa qualidade de vida no trabalho; cefaleia frequente provocada/agravada pelo trabalho aumentou a chance em 1,98 vezes de ter baixa qualidade de vida no trabalho. Conclusão: condições de trabalho impactam na saúde e qualidade de vida do trabalho do enfermeiro. Ambientes de trabalho adequados proporcionam satisfação pessoal e profissional, além de manterem a qualidade da força de trabalho do enfermeiro.
