| Title | Working hours and health behaviour among nurses at public hospitals | pt_BR |
| Type | Article | |
| Abstract | Objective: to analyse the differences between genders in the description in the professional,
domestic and total work hours and assess its association with health-related behaviour among
nurses. Methods: this is a transversal study carried out in 18 different public hospitals in the
municipality of Rio de Janeiro. The data collection procedure was based on questionnaires. All
nurses working with assistance were considered eligible (n=2,279). Results: men and women
showed significant differences in relation to working hours. The female group showed longer
domestic and total work hours when compared to the group of men. In contrast, the number of
hours spent on professional work was higher among men. For the women, both the professional
hours and total work hours were often associated with excessive consumption of fried food and
also coffee, lack of physical exercise and also the greater occurrence of overweight and obesity.
Conclusion: both the professional hours and the domestic work hours need to be taken into
account in studies about health, self-care and also the care provided within the context of nursing
workers, particularly among women. The results add weight to the need for actions for health
promotion in this occupational group and the importance of assessing the impact of long working
hours on the health of workers. | pt_BR |
