“…Our study addresses a gap in research on how residents perceive and experience work opportunities in their neighborhoods. With increasing recognition of the need for qualitative research for health equity, few recent studies have examined perceptions of specific occupations within a neighborhood [ 71 , 72 , 73 ] or work transitions (due to age or gentrification) [ 74 ], but there remains little research on how work is experienced within a neighborhood.…”

Work is a key social determinant of health. Community health and well-being may be impacted in neighborhoods with high proportions of people engaged in precarious work situations compounded by health inequities produced by other social determinants associated with their residential geography. However, little is known about how community residents experience work at the neighborhood level nor how work impacts health at the community-level, particularly in communities with a high proportion of residents engaged in precarious work. We sought to understand, through participatory research strategies, how work is experienced at the community level and to identify community interventions to establish a culture of healthy work. As part of a mixed-methods community health assessment, community researchers conducted focus groups with residents in two high social and economic hardship neighborhoods on Chicago’s southwest side. Community and academic researchers engaged in participatory data analysis and developed and implemented member-checking modules to engage residents in the data interpretation process. Twelve focus group discussions (77 community resident participants) were completed. Three major themes emerged: systematic marginalization from the pathways to healthy work situations; contextual and structural hostility to sustain healthy work; and violations in the rights, agency, and autonomy of resident workers. Findings were triangulated with findings from the concept-mapping research component of the project to inform the development of a community health survey focused on work characteristics and experiences. Listening to residents in communities with a high proportion of residents engaging in precarious work allows for the identification of nuanced community-informed intervention points to begin to build a culture of healthy work.

“…Os idosos que não têm queixas são capazes de realizar atividades do dia-a-dia (27) . A qualidade de vida dos idosos é diretamente influenciada pelas circunstâncias e fatores que ocorrem em sua vida (28) . Portanto, o idoso com hipertensão deve ser capaz de manter a saúde de seu corpo, principalmente o tratamento da hipertensão no sentido de controlar sua pressão arterial.…”

Objetivo: analisar as diferenças nos mecanismos de enfrentamento e na qualidade de vida entre idosos com hipertensão em casas de repouso da Indonésia. Método: foi realizado um estudo transversal entre 71 idosos durante dezembro de 2018 em casas de repouso. Foi utilizado um questionário autoadministrado foi para identificar as características dos participantes e a qualidade de vida dos idosos, ao mesmo tempo em que o esfigmomanômetro foi usado para medir a pressão arterial. A análise de dados foi feita com teste qui-quadrado. Resultados: houve diferenças significativas entre os mecanismos de enfrentamento e a qualidade de vida dos idosos com hipertensão (X2=4,15; p=0,041). Os idosos que usavam mecanismos de enfrentamento focando nos problemas eram mais propensos a ter uma qualidade de vida moderada (OR=2,86; 95% IC=1,02-7,97). Conclusão: os mecanismos de enfrentamento de idosos com hipertensão devem ser aprimorados para que alcancem qualidade de vida por meio de cuidado e aconselhamento.

PurposeOccupational health promotion programmes targeting the Indonesian agricultural farmers (AFs) are limited. This action research aimed to involve the AFs in the research and development of community-based occupational health promotion (COHP) programme, which is tailored to meet their perceived needs for preventing health problems related to occupational workplace.Design/methodology/approachThis study employed the qualitative action research approach. The participants (n = 136) were farmers from seven regions in the rural areas of East Java, Indonesia. The COHP was examined from public health centres (PHCs) in seven regions through eight steps, including recognition, analyses, planning, communication, preparation, implementation, evaluation and continuity of programme, for eight weeks. Data were collected through focus group interviews and examined using qualitative content analysis.FindingsThe findings revealed that the participants not only lacked health status but were also required to promote a comprehensive programme for occupational health and safety. The health problems of AFs were identified as the lack of nutrition and high blood pressure, which are related to un-ergonomic condition during work, limited use of personal protective equipment, high stress and workload. The lack of support for AF groups to prevent health problems and to access health services was a key theme for all the participants. Therefore, self-help group as social support was designed to solve the health problems among AFs.Originality/valueThe COHP, through action research, provided a change strategy for AFs to manage and promote occupational health and safety within their practice. The study findings could be used in the development of a framework for PHCs in delivering occupational health and safety practices in the agricultural sectors.
