    (Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina do Exercício e do Esporte, 2013-10-01) Grande, Antonio José [UNIFESP]; Silva, Valter [UNIFESP]; Manzatto, Luciane; Rocha, Túlio Brandão Xavier; Martins, Gustavo Celestino; Vilela Junior, Guanis de Barros; Universidade Metodista de Piracicaba; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP); Universidade Estadual de Londrina; Faculdades Integradas Pitágoras de Montes Claros
    INTRODUCTION: About one-third of the day goes on in the workplace. Therefore, strategies that benefit the quality of life of workers become important. OBJECTIVE: To investigate determinants of quality of life after three months of workers' health promotion programs. METHODS: An experimental design was used to verify the quality of life outcomes of 190 workers. The interventions lasted three months. Company A received the exercise program, posters with recommendations on health and quality of life and computer software; Company B received only an exercise program; Company C received posters with recommendations on health and quality of life and computer software, Company D was the control. All assessments of the quality of work life occurred through the questionnaire QVS-80. Data were analyzed through descriptive statistics, the Z test and Cronbach's alpha test. RESULTS: The main factors that interfered in the quality of life were: physical activity focused on aesthetics, physical fitness, smoking, physical activity recommended by a doctor, sitting time, family life, sleep quality, income. Comparing national data to the present study for all chronic diseases self-reported, statistically significant differences were observed. Physical activity for aesthetic reasons is the variable that most negatively influences on the perception of quality of life. CONCLUSION: These data help to reflect on the importance of combined strategies such as physical activity implementation and the understanding on the lifestyle components in the workplace.

    Política de Saúde do Trabalhador: revisitando o caso do Centro de Referência em Saúde do Trabalhador de Campinas
    (Fundação Jorge Duprat Figueiredo de Segurança e Medicina do Trabalho - FUNDACENTRO, 2013-06-01) Medeiros, Maria Angélica Tavares de [UNIFESP]; Salerno, Vera Lúcia; Silvestre, Mírian Pedrollo; Magalhães, Lilian Vieira; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP); Prefeitura Municipal de Campinas Centro de Referência Regional em Saúde do Trabalhador; Western University Faculty of Health Sciences
    INTRODUCTION: The Regional Occupational Health Reference Center (Cerest) opened in Campinas, São Paulo State, Brazil, in 1986, as a union demand. OBJECTIVE: To analyse the trajectory of Cerest-Campinas comparing the challenges identified in a 2001 study with the 2012 reality. METHODS: Secondary analysis was carried out comparing the current moment with data from 2001. For content analysis, the authors recorded Cerest workers' reflections and testimonies in a field notebook. RESULTS: Although there are structural limitations concerning Surveillance, especially regarding marginalization of the Occupational Health Policy, there has been progress in Health Care. Neverthless, the obstacles faced in 2001 are greater nowadays. Difficulties in management and financing coupled with municipal administration problems caused a crisis culminating in a movement In defence of Cerest (2011). As in the previous study, a relevant fact was the degree of personal involvement of Cerest workers, as they, in spite of all difficulties, kept resisting. CONCLUSION: Cerest survives amidst contradictions, and challenges remain. The threat of its closing called back the commitment of historical actors (professionals and unions) involved, suggesting possibilities, which, depending on rearrangement of political institutional powers, can consolidate workers' health policy, in local and nationwide levels.
