I vård och omsorgssektorn är sjukfrånvaron hög. Det finns många orsaker till ohälsa och i många fall är det arbetsrelaterat och de anställda har en ökad risk att drabbas av psykisk ohälsa och främst stress. Finns det en obalans i arbetslivet och kraven överstiger resurserna kan det få negativa effekter. En god arbetsmiljö kan inspirera medarbetaren till att behålla sina egna resurser och bidra till en ökad medvetenhet relaterat till välbefinnande. Fysisk aktivitet har positiva effekter på hälsan och kan skydda individer från att utveckla psykiska ohälsa orsakad av stress. Måttlig intensitet av träning, 150 minuter per vecka är tillräckligt för att uppleva mindre stress och ett ökat välbefinnande. Arbetsmiljölagen ställer krav på arbetsgivaren att arbetet ska anpassas till den enskilda arbetstagarens psykiska och fysiska förutsättningar. I det ingår att undvika stress genom att anpassa arbetet till arbetstagaren. Syftet med studien är att belysa om det finns ett samband mellan fysisk aktivitet och upplevelsen av stress och den psykosociala arbetsmiljön hos medarbetare inom vård och omsorg. En kvantitativ metod har använts och olika professioner i vård och omsorgssektorn har svarat på en enkät. Resultatet visar att det inte finns signifikant skillnad i upplevelsen av stress mellan de som inte är fysiskt aktiva och de som är fysiskt aktiva. Däremot finns det ett samband mellan fysiskt aktiva individer kopplat till att de har lättare att hantera arbetskrav i form av arbetsmängd. De fysiskt aktiva upplever att de har stöd från arbetskamrater vänner och familj i större utsträckning än de fysiskt inaktiva. / In the healthcare and care sector sick leave is high. There are many causes of ill health and in many cases it is work-related and employees have an increased risk of mental illness and, above all, stress. If there is an imbalance in working life and the requirements exceed the resources, it can have negative effects. A good working environment can inspire the employee to maintain his own resources and contribute to increased awareness of well-being. Physical activity has positive effects on health and can protect individuals from developing mental health caused by stress. Moderate intensity of exercise, 150 minutes per week is enough to experience less stress and increased well-being. The Work Environment Act requires employers to adapt the work to the individual employee. The purpose of the study is to highlight whether there is a connection between physical activity and the experience of stress and the psychosocial work environment of the employee in healthcare and care. A quantitative method has been used and various professions in the healthcare and care sector have responded to a questionnaire. The result shows that there is no significant difference in the experience of stress between those who are not physically active and those who are physically active. On the other hand, there is a connection between physically active individuals linked to the fact that they are easier to handle work demands in terms of workload. The physical activists experience that they have support from workmates, friends and family to a greater extent than the physically inactive ones.

A crescente epidemia de obesidade tem incentivado profissionais da saúde a procurar por intervenções que possam atingir um grande número de indivíduos de maneira custo-efetiva. Os Programas de Qualidade de Vida no Trabalho vêm sendo apontados como ferramentas importantes para a promoção da saúde e qualidade de vida. Neste contexto, o Coaching em Saúde e Bem Estar vem despontando como um componente promissor nas intervenções desenvolvidas nestes programas, de modo a atingir resultados positivos e permanentes para mudança de comportamento para um estilo de vida saudável. Desta forma, o propósito desta revisão é verificar o efeito do Coaching em Saúde e Bem Estar sobre o peso corporal, nível de atividade física e consumo de frutas, legumes e vegetais de trabalhadores. Para tanto, foi conduzida uma busca nas bases de dados PubMed, CINAHL, EMBASE, LILACS e Cochrane Library. Onze ensaios clínicos randomizados atenderam aos critérios de elegibilidade, aos quais foi aplicado o instrumento de avaliação de risco de viés da Colaboração Cochrane e extraídas as informações relevantes de cada estudo. Encontrou-se associação de efeito na direção esperada para peso corporal, atividade física e consumo de frutas, legumes e vegetais. No entanto, 72,7% dos estudos (n=8) apresentaram alto risco de viés. Assim, conclui-se que as evidências para responder à pergunta desta revisão são limitadas e, portanto, sugere-se que mais estudos sejam realizados, considerando-se a transparência no relato das evidências e o rigor metodológico recomendado para sua execução. / The expanding outbreak of obesity has stimulated health professionals to search for interventions capable to encompass a large number of individuals in a cost-effective manner. Worksite Wellness Programs have been pointed out as important tools for the promotion of workers\' health and quality of life. In this context, Health and Wellness Coaching is emerging as a promising component of the interventions developed in such programs, leveraging achievement of positive and permanent results on behavior change for a healthy lifestyle. Under such perspective the purpose of this review is to verify the effect of Health and Wellness Coaching on workers\' body weight, physical activity and consumption of fruits and vegetables. Therefore, a survey was conducted in PubMed, CINAHL, EMBASE, LILACS and Cochrane Library databases. Eleven studies met the selection criteria of this research. The risk of bias analysis tool developed by Cochrane collaboration was applied, and the relevant data were extracted from each study The analysis of results of such studies demonstrated association of positive effect for the increase of workers\' physical activity, body weight and fruits and vegetables intake. Nevertheless, 72,8% of the studies (n=8) showed a high risk of bias. So the conclusion is that the evidences found are not enough to answer the proposed question. Further studies are necessary in order to gather consistent data raised with the required methodological rigor.
