Os três artigos são produto do mesmo tipo de estudo,analítico transversal de caráter epidemiológico, com amostra de 84 funcionários técnicos e auxiliares administrativos da Universidade Estadual de Goiás. Os instrumentos de avaliação utilizados foram: Questionário Epidemiológico, Critério de Classificação Econômica(ABEP), Questionário de Qualidade de Vida World Health OrganizationQualityof Life-bref (WHOQOL Abreviado), Índice de Capacidade para o Trabalho (ICT), Avaliação Ergonômica do FinnishInstituteofOccupational Health adaptada, Questionário Nórdico de Distúrbios Osteomusculares e o Questionário de Qualidade de Vida no Trabalho (QVT). Quanto aos resultados do primeiro artigo, a amostra foi composta em sua maior parte por mulheres, com idade maior ou igual a 40 anos, casadas, com nível superior e que exercem cargo auxiliar administrativo na instituição.Os funcionários possuem uma boa qualidade de vida geral, sendo que o domínio social foi o que obteve maior escore, e o ambiental o menor; e possuem uma capacidade moderada para o trabalho. Os funcionários do sexo masculino apresentaram melhores pontuações nos domínios físico, psicológico e na qualidade de vida geral; os casados tiveram melhores escores no domínio psicológico. No segundo artigo, emrelação à ergonomia, observou que os trabalhadores da instituição dispõem de um bom espaço ergonômico. Algumas variáveis como a atenção requerida, posturas e movimentos, restritividade no trabalho, ruído e repetitividade, respectivamente, apresentaram os piores escores, o melhor achado entre os dados aponta que os funcionários apresentam facilidade e boa capacidade para se comunicarem com os outros funcionários, os homens se comunicam mais no trabalho e apresentam maiores riscos de sofrerem algum acidente durante a jornada de serviço. Entretanto, as mulheres realizam mais trabalhos repetitivos. Quando se comparou os funcionários com cargo auxiliar administrativo e técnico, pôde-se concluir que aqueles que possuem cargos técnicos são mais suscetíveis a acidentes de trabalho.No terceiro artigo, a ocupação exercida pelo funcionário correlacionou-se com o tipo de distúrbio osteomuscular, desta forma observou-se que, àqueles que ocupavam cargos técnico-administrativos apresentaram maior índice de dores, na coluna lombar. Obteve-se também correlação significativa entre as dores em membros inferiores e a qualidade de vida no trabalho, ou seja, quanto maior as dores em membros inferiores menor serão as condições de saúde e segurança do trabalhador. Assim, pode-se perceber que a aplicação de um programa de prevenção em uma população de funcionários, pode ser benéfica. Este programa atuará diretamente na redução de queixas musculoesqueléticas provenientes do trabalho, melhorando a qualidade de vida destes funcionários.

<p>At the turn of the year 2009/2010 there was a change in the regulations on sickness impact. This led to 328 persons in County of Kronoberg had an expired period of sickness benefit from the Social Insurance Office (Försäkringskassan) when they reached the maximum time for sickness or temporary disability compensation. These individuals were offered introductory programs with the employment services. The purpose of this study is to investigate how the population with expired period of sickness benefit from the Regional Social Insurance Office in the County of Kronoberg (Försäkringskassan Kronoberg) is described in the initial stage, and to explore how individuals who achieved expired period of sickness benefit from the Social Insurance Office (Försäkringskassan) talks about the meaning to get an expired period of sickness benefit regarding economic and social issues. The study was inspired by Grounded theory. The method has consisted of both quantitative and qualitative interviews. In total, six persons participated in the surveys. Narrative method was used in the interview with a person with experience of an expired period of sickness benefit from the Social Insurance Office (Försäkringskassan). The interviews indicate that the authorities have different focus on the concept of rehabilitation. This means that what is to be regarded as rehabilitation and the efforts which may benefit the individual depends on which authority has the power of definition. This study is made before preparing administrators for either statistics or working methods were established by the relevant authorities. Longer experience in the field is still missing about what the change means for both individuals who have experience of the expired period of sickness benefit and professionals. This points out; further research in this area is needed.</p>
