Resumo: | This article focuses on the magnitude of work-related deaths in Porto Alegre, the capital of Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil. Death certificates were used to investigate 159 cases, or 18% of the 877 deaths from external causes in 1992. Some 31 cases were identified. The principal cause of death among these workers was homicide, with 58% of cases (15 from fire arms and 3 from knives), followed by traffic accidents, with 29% (5 motor vehicle collisions and 4 pedestrians run down by motor vehicles). Of these 31 deaths, 17 were workers from the formal labor market, of whom 11 did not fit into the regular reporting procedures for work-related accidents. The other 14 deaths were of workers from the informal labor market (7), individuals involved in illicit activities (6), and unknown (1), in which cases reporting as work-related accidents was also inappropriate. These data suggest negligence by the public sector in dealing with this issue and the fact that official statistics fail to reflect the reality of daily working conditions. The authors conclude that health surveillance requires other data collection mechanisms besides those used by the Social Welfare System, so as to include all actual risks related to work situations. |

A partir das Declarações de óbito, e utilizando metodologia qualitativa, confirmando a causa das mortes através de inquérito familiar, foram investigados 159 óbitos, 18% dos 877 classificados como devidos a Causas externas ocorridos em 1992. Foram identificados 31 casos. As principais causas dos óbitos entre estes trabalhadores foram homicídio, em 58% dos casos (15 com arma de fogo e 3 com arma branca), seguido de acidente de trânsito, em 29% (5 colisões e 4 atropelamentos). Dos 31 óbitos, 17 foram de trabalhadores do mercado formal de trabalho e, dentre estes, 11 não se enquadram nas normas de notificação acidentária. Outros 14 óbitos foram de trabalhadores ligados: ao mercado informal de trabalho (7), à execução de atividades ilícitas (6) e à atividade ignorada (1), os quais também não são notificáveis. Isto desvela a omissão do Estado no tratamento desta questão e o quanto os dados oficiais não traduzem a realidade existente no cotidiano do trabalho. Os autores concluem que, para fins de Vigilância em Saúde, faz-se necessária a utilização de outros mecanismos de coleta de dados, além dos utilizados pela Previdência Social, de modo a incluir todas as situações reais de risco à saúde provenientes do trabalho.Reports in Public HealthCadernos de Saúde Pública1997-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/948Reports in Public Health; Vol. 13 No. 6 (1997): Supplement 2Cadernos de Saúde Pública; v. 13 n. 6 (1997): Suplemento 21678-44640102-311Xreponame:Cadernos de Saúde Públicainstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZporhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/948/1886https://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/948/1887Oliveira, Paulo Antonio BarrosMendes, Jussara Mariainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2024-03-06T15:26:09Zoai:ojs.teste-cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br:article/948Revistahttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csphttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/oaicadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br||cadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br1678-44640102-311Xopendoar:2024-03-06T13:01:09.767953Cadernos de Saúde Pública - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)true |
