Resumo: | Diseases in general and work absenteeism due to illness are prevalent among schoolteachers in Basic Education, whose mission is essential for preparing future citizens. This study study aimed to produce information on demographics, characteristics of the schools and school systems, and health status of the group of teachers that felt pressured to work even when sick. The probabilistic sample was calculated by simple random selection in order to represent the total universe of 2,229,269 Brazilian schoolteachers working in Basic Education (preschool-12). Teachers answered a multi-thematic questionnaire by telephone. The question leading to the outcome variable, “Do you experience difficulty missing work even when you’re feeling pain or have some other health problem?”, was tested and validated. The answer allowed empirically operationalizing the concept of pressure to work when sick. The multivariate analysis used Pearson’s chi-square test and the decision tree method. The final model’s fit was assessed by estimating the risk of incorrect classification. The tree’s subdivisions pointed to weak social support as the first determinant of pressure to work, 55% reported difficulty missing work when they were feeling pain or having some other health problem, and 70% of the group that rated their health as bad or very bad felt pressured to appear for work even when sick or in pain. The associated factors were: weak social support, an agitated workplace due to unruly students, and health problems that were considered work-related diseases. Given the goals of valuing schoolteachers in Basic Education, attention should be given to gender differences, management styles, and infrastructure in the schools. |

El objetivo fue producir información sobre las características demográficas, características de la escuela y de la red de enseñanza, y situación de salud del grupo que percibió presión laboral. La muestra probabilística se calculó por selección aleatoria simple, de manera que represente el universo de 2.229.269 profesores de Educación Básica en Brasil. El cuestionario multitemático se respondió por teléfono. La pregunta que dio origen a la variable desenlace: ¿usted tiene dificultad para faltar al trabajo incluso cuando sufre dolor u otro problema de salud? Se probó y validó. La respuesta hizo viable visibilizar empíricamente el concepto de presión laboral. Se utilizó el test del chi-cuadrado de Pearson y el método del árbol de decisión en el análisis multivariado. El ajuste del modelo final se evaluó mediante la estimativa de riesgo de clasificación incorrecta. Las subdivisiones del árbol indican el apoyo social como el primer determinante de presión laboral, un 55% informaron que tienen dificultad para faltar al trabajo, incluso cuando sufren dolor o cualquier otro problema de salud; un 70% del grupo, que evaluó su salud como mala y muy mala, se sintió presionado para comparecer al trabajo cuando estaban enfermos o sufrían dolores. Los factores asociados fueron: escaso apoyo social, ambiente agitado en función de la indisciplina de los alumnos y problema de salud considerado como enfermedad ocupacional. Ante estas metas de valorización de los profesores de educación básica, se deben considerar diferenciales de género y estilos de gestión, además de las infraestructuras en las escuelas.Morbidades em geral e licenças médicas são prevalentes no grupo dos professores da Educação Básica, cuja missão é essencial para a formação dos cidadãos.
