Entre los participantes que presentaron algún signo significativo de estrés, la mayor parte trabaja o trabajaba con reciclaje. Una vez analizada la Escala de Estrés Infantil, se observó que hay más signos de estrés en los niños que trabajan en comparación con los antiguos trabajadores y existe una correlación significativa entre el trabajo y el estrés (p=0,008). Conclusiones: Se observó que la actividad laboral em la infancia puede causar trastornos de naturaleza psicofisiológica y, a pesar de que la muestra fue pequeña, se pudieron identificar daños de esta actividad en los niños y adolescentes.
