title: Physical activity level and cardiovascular strain in wildland firefighters during forest fire suppression: an exploratory study

description: Abstract Introduction: wildland fire suppression exposes firefighters to high cardiovascular risk. Objective: to evaluate the physical activity level (PAL), sedentary behavior (SB) and cardiovascular strain of wildland firefighters during a large fire suppression. Methods: for 9 days, 24h/day, we evaluated 7 male wildland firefighters. Participants had their heart rate (HR) measured every second and physical activity recorded by an accelerometer sensor every 60 seconds. The mean records of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th days of fire suppression were computed for the analysis. PAL was evaluated by the vector magnitude and cardiovascular strain by HR intensity. Results: the volunteers spent on average 112 (SD 24) min/day in moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA), achieved 14,803 (SD 1,667) steps/day and spent 1,860 (SD 481) kcal/day. Cardiovascular strain remained on average at 47 (SD 42) min/day of vigorous effort and 8 (SD 12) min/day of very vigorous physical activity. Conclusion: the firefighters evaluated during a large-scale wildland fire suppression accounted for more than double of the minimum recommended MVPA/week in three days, showed more than 50 min/day of high cardiovascular strain, and little time on sedentary behavior compared to other professions.

title: Profile of fatal occupational accidents in an oil company between 2001 to 2016

description: Abstract Objective: to analyze fatalities due to occupational accidents occurred from 2001 to 2016 in a Brazilian oil and gas company. Methods: data were collected from the social sustainability reports published by the company and supplemented by information available at the company library, in union documents, and in the media news. Results: fatalities predominantly occurred in the exploration and production activities (55.0%), refining (15.0%), and engineering/construction (13.0%). The highest number of deaths occurred on offshore platforms (19.4%), followed by refineries (14.4%) and oil wells (8.1%); motor vehicles caused 15.8% of the fatal injuries. Occupations with the most fatal accidents were drivers or drivers’ assistants (14.4%), maintenance technicians (9.9%), operation technicians (9.5%), assistants (6.8%), technician assistants (5,9%) and equipment operators (4.5%). Conclusion: deaths in the oil and gas industry struck mainly outsourced workers engaged in exploration and production activities, especially on the platforms, corroborating the international statistics on the high risk in offshore work.

title: Exposure to pesticides and agricultural workers’ health: what does literature reveal?

description: Abstract Introduction: the association between pesticides and health effects has been investigated in several different contexts. Objective: to gather relevant scientific evidence regarding health effects associated to occupational exposure to pesticides. Methods: literature review of studies published between 2000 and 2017 on PubMed, Embase and LILACS. We adopted the following eligibility criteria: a) observational studies; b) population of agricultural workers; c) occupational exposure to pesticides; d) health effects defined as outcome; e) statistical comparison between exposed and non-exposed subjects; f) English, Portuguese or Spanish language. Results: of 59 papers selected, 33 were cross-sectional studies, 22 cohort studies and 4 case-control studies. Discussion: the studies indicated that rural workers presented higher risk for some chronic diseases (cancer, mental, neurological, endocrine, kidney, hearing, respiratory and autoimmune), subclinical effects (genetic damages and biochemical changes) and clinical signs and symptoms of acute pesticide poisoning. We also identified study limitations concerning design and sampling, assessment of exposure and outcome. Conclusion: the evidences suggest the need to complement health evaluation of workers exposed to pesticides using effect biomarkers of genotoxicity and cytotoxicity in order to promote and expand surveillance of pesticides exposure and chronic intoxications, as well as their prevention.

title: Risk factors for hearing loss in naval military personnel: a review

description: Abstract Introduction: military personnel are exposed to noise in most of their professional activities. Objective: to identify risk factors and describe hearing damage related to noise exposure in naval military activities. Methods: literature review in Scopus, Web of Science and SciELO bibliographic bases. We searched original articles published from 2007 to 2017. The studies were classified according to the methodological quality Cochrane Collaboration criteria. Results: out of 47 studies, seven met the inclusion criteria. The selected articles showed that the naval military personnel’s hearing health can be affected by military activities. The studies confirmed that hearing loss cases increase according to the length of time spent in military and post-operative activities, both in combat and on board of ships. The hearing loss prevalence increases with age and time of exposure, and is featured according to the type of noise. It is more frequent among white men and reaches predominantly the hearing high frequencies, being of sensorial-neural type. Conclusion: the vulnerability of this group reinforces the need for implementing hearing conservation programs within military organizations in order to monitor and develop preventive actions aimed at this professional category.

title: Health workers and COVID-19: flailing working conditions?

description: Abstract Objectives: to analyze the working conditions of health professionals facing the COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil based on online media reports published in prominent news portals. Methods: qualitative analysis of 22 news stories selected from two of the main Brazilian news portals, published between April 20 and 30, 2020. Based on thematic content analysis, we defined five categories: Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and COVID-19; health workers with comorbidities working on the front line; illness and death due to work; access to treatment and work leave due to COVID-19; resigning from work and professional updating. Results: the news stories reported inadequate working conditions due to lack of and/or inadequate PPE; health care workers with comorbidities remaining at work; sickness and death from COVID-19; strain and fear of being infected, and having to deal with co-workers’ sickness and death; difficulties in getting tested for COVID-19 and obtaining sick leave for treatment; resigning from health care work; need for fast professional updating for COVID-19 health care. Conclusion: the pandemic clearly evidences the need for public investment in health care for workers in charge of caring for the population.

title: Prolonged exposure to laboratory animals is associated with increasing asthma cases

description: Abstract Objective: to describe the follow-up evaluation of sensitized workers who prolonged their occupational exposure to laboratory animals. Methods: after a follow-up period of approximately 7 years, we contacted all individuals with occupational allergic sensitization detected in a previous study. A questionnaire was employed to assess present occupational status, relationship between allergy and decision on quitting job or exposure, and to assess asthma, wheezing, rhinitis, skin symptoms, and nocturnal dyspnea. Results: of the 74 individuals with occupational sensitization, 45 volunteers completed the questionnaire at the second evaluation and 37 were still exposed. By comparing the data from the first evaluation with data from the current evaluation, we observed an increase in asthma frequency. In the first evaluation, among all sensitized subjects (n=74), 27.0% answered yes to both questions “Do you have or have you ever had asthma?” and “Was the asthma diagnosed by a doctor?” In the second evaluation, 7 years later, among the 37 subjects who were still exposed, 51.3% answered yes to these questions (OR: 2.80; 95%CI: 1.23-6.38; p=0.013). There was no change in the frequency of positive responses to the other questions. Conclusion: data demonstrate increasing frequency of asthma among workers with occupational sensitization who prolong exposure to laboratory animal.

title: Women’s return to work after experiencing breast cancer: a metasynthesis

description: Abstract Introduction: breast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer in women worldwide and the number of cases has increased among the economically active population. Therefore, issues related to returning to work after BC has aroused the interest of the scientific community. Objective: To systematize and synthesize qualitative studies that address the experience of returning to work after BC. Methods: qualitative meta-synthesis with search for primary studies in ASSIA, BIREME, CINAHL, Embase, PsycInfo, SciELO, Scopus and Web of Science databases. The total of 779 articles were found, of which only nine met the inclusion criteria. Results: six second-order concepts were generated: the effects of the disease on rehabilitation; financial problems; fear of recurrences; support from family, friends and health professionals; and changes in the meaning of work after BC. Conclusion: the return to work should not be limited to aspects related to obstacles and facilitators of rehabilitation. The “worlds of life” shown in the broader contextual factors reveal that facing the return to work implies improving support for workers in the work environment, in family life, in the relationship with the health and social security systems and in the individual sphere, to prevent early retirements and prolonged disability.

title: Relationships between role-plays and the psychic development of children aged 5-6 years

description: ABSTRACT This study reflects on the relationship between role-plays and the psychic development of children aged 5 to 6 years from the perspective of cultural-historical psychology. As an example, we present excerpts of role-playing games, selected from the ones observed and filmed during six sessions of 45 minutes each, involving 12 children in preschool. The results allow inferences about their experiences and the context in which they live. At the same time, role-plays expand higher psychological processes, as they enable children to transition between actions with concrete objects and actions with meaning. We emphasize that the child experiences manifested in the games denounce serious social issues faced by educators today. Thus, the teacher must recognize and favor the educational potential of role-playing; however, the challenge of educating the contemporary child requires public policies beyond the classroom environment.

title: Integrated education as a policy measure for social justice: the case of AET courses in Portugal and PROEJA in Brazil

description: ABSTRACT Based on a socio-critical framework, we reflect on two educational policies aimed at youth and adult education in Portugal and in Brazil, which illustrate the possibility of the State assuming its role of guaranteeing the right to education. It is concluded that these courses focus on the formation of students, providing them with both the right of access to historically constructed knowledge and a professionalization that allows them to act in the world of work and in the production of their subsistence; and, on the other hand, in a movement that compromises their existence, these courses are affected by government decisions or policies based on assumptions contrary to their foundations. A macro-analysis also shows that the ideological position of State governance is what defines decisions related to education.

title: Literacy for the deaf: beyond alpha and beta

description: ABSTRACT This paper aims to theoretically and synthetically discuss the nature of literacy for the deaf through two approaches, namely: literacy in Brazilian Sign Language (Língua Brasileira de Sinais - Libras), using the SignWriting system; and literacy in Portuguese, through the Latin alphabet alphabetic-orthographic system. This text indicates the specificities of each literacy method and discusses the more prominent problems, as perceived by the author, in the current Brazilian educational scenario. The paper argues that literacy for the deaf in Libras must be addressed by teaching methods for writing sign language through the SignWriting system, and points out the need for linguistic policies that systematize and legitimize this proposal. Furthermore, it proposes premises for those teaching literacy to the deaf who teach written Portuguese as a second language.

title: Teacher’s informal learning: relation with professional and organizational development

description: ABSTRACT The article analyzes the informal learning of the teaching staff and its relationship with the professional and organizational development. The literature review details the implications of these for organizations in general, and educational centers in particular. The importance of reflective practice of teachers, their positive attitudes toward change and collaborative work are also highlighted. Individual, group and organizational factors support the promotion of informal learning, as the basis for a pedagogical proposal to encourage informal learning in schools. In conclusion, possibilities and limitations of informal learning are emphasized, especially for organizations that aspire to their consideration as an element for professional and organizational improvement.
