Resumo: The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of PTSD (last 30 days) and to investigate whetheroccupational variables are associated with the outcome in firefighters from Belo Horizonte city, Brazil. The cross-sectionalstudy was conducted in 2011. Among 794 eligible workers, 711 (89.5%) participated. Information was obtained by self-reportquestionnaire: sociodemographic and occupational variables, health status and non-occupational adverse events. The prevalenceof PTSD was 6.9 %. Occupational variables contributed to explain the outcome in the final model (multivariate logisticregression): psychosocial work factors, occupational traumatic events, duration of work as firefighter, and absenteeism. Age,mental health problems in the past, and non-occupational adverse events were also associated with the outcome. The resultsare discussed considering the assumptions of Demand-Control Model.

Estudo transversal foi realizado em 2011. Dentre 794 elegíveis, 711 (89,5%) participaram. Informações foram obtidas por questionário de autorrelato: variáveis sociodemográficas e ocupacionais, saúde e eventos extralaborais adversos. A prevalência de TEPT foi 6,9%. Variáveis ocupacionais contribuíram para explicar o desfecho no modelo final (regressão logística multivariável): fatores psicosssociais do trabalho, eventos traumáticos ocupacionais, tempo de trabalho e absenteísmo. Idade, problemas de saúde mental no passado e eventos adversos extralaborais também foram associados ao TEPT.
