Resumo: Objective: To analyze the use and handling of pesticides by workers from ten rural communities in the city of Vitória de Santo Antão-PE. Methods: Observational cross- sectional descriptive study was conducted from January to July 2010, through the application of a structured questionnaire to a sample of convenience. Sample size was estimated with a level of significance (α) of 5% in order to access variables on personal data, use and handling of pesticides. Results: Of 230 farm workers in the studied region, most were women (n=157; 69.2%) with incomplete elementary school level (n=130; 57%). It was observed that 141 (61.3%) respondent workers reported to use pesticides and only 3 (0.9%) applied the product under technical guidance of experts. Of the interviewees, 97 (28.3%) were unaware of the grace period, 67 (19.5%) unaware of recycling law, 95 (27.7%) did not use personal protective equipment, 80 (23.3%) used the rivers for washing the equipment and 108 (31.5%) reused the remains of liquid preparations. Conclusions: The harmful exposure of rural workers who used pesticides and the permanent environment contamination are evidenced. Such data reflects an agricultural model that seeks productivity and financial profits without proper compliance to health promotion and quality of the environment. doi:10.5020/18061230.2013.p182

Métodos: Estudio observacional seccional descriptivo realizado en el periodo de enero a julio de 2010 a través de la aplicación de un cuestionario estructurado a una muestra de conveniencia cuyo tamaño fue estimado con un nivel de significancia (α) del 5%, para levantar variables relativas a los datos personales, el uso y manoseo de agrotoxicos. Resultados: La mayoría de los230 trabajadores rurales de la región investigada eran mujeres (n=157; 69,2%) que estudiaron hasta la educación primaria incompleta (n=130; 57%). Fue observado que 141 (61,3%) trabajadores entrevistados utilizaban agrotoxicos y apenas 3 (0,9%) aplicaban el producto bajo la orientación de técnicos especialistas. De los entrevistados, 97 (28,3%) no conocen el periodo de carencia, 67 (19,5%) la ley de reciclaje, 95 (27,7%) no usan los equipos de protección individual, 80 (23,3%) utilizan los ríos para lavar los equipos y 108 (31,5%) reutilizan los restos de las caldas. Conclusión: Son evidentes las exposiciones nocivas de los trabajadores rurales que utilizan el producto y la permanente contaminación ambiental. Esos datos reflejan un modelo agrícola que busca la productividad y el rendimiento financiero sin la atención adecuada a la promoción de la salud y la calidad ambiental. doi:10.5020/18061230.2013.p182Objetivo: Analisar o uso e manuseio de agrotóxicos por trabalhadores rurais de dez comunidades do município de Vitória de Santo Antão-PE. Métodos: Estudo observacional seccional descritivo realizado no período de janeiro a julho de 2010 por meio da aplicação de questionário estruturado a uma amostra de conveniência cujo tamanho foi estimado com um nível de significância (α) de 5%, a fim de levantar variáveis relativas a dados pessoais, uso e manuseio de agrotóxicos. Resultados: Dos 230 trabalhadores rurais da região estudada, a maioria eram mulheres (n=157; 69,2%) que cursaram até o ensino fundamental incompleto (n=130; 57%). Foi observado que 141 (61,3%) trabalhadores entrevistados utilizavam agrotóxicos e apenas 3 (0,9%) aplicavam o produto com orientação de técnicos especialistas. Dos entrevistados, 97 (28,3%) desconhecem o período de carência, 67 (19,5%) a lei de reciclagem, 95 (27,7%) não usam equipamentos de proteção individual, 80 (23,3%) utilizam- se dos rios para lavagem dos equipamentos e 108 (31,5%) reutilizam as sobras das caldas. Conclusões: Ficam evidentes as exposições nocivas dos trabalhadores rurais que utilizam o produto e a permanente contaminação ambiental. Tais dados refletem um modelo agrícola que busca a produtividade e rendimento financeiro, sem a atenção adequada à promoção à saúde e à qualidade ambiental. doi:10.5020/18061230.2013.p182Universidade de Fortaleza2014-04-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion"Peer-reviewed Article""Avaliado pelos pares""Avaliado pelos pares"application/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/290210.5020/2902Brazilian Journal in Health Promotion; Vol. 26 No. 2 (2013); 182-191Revista Brasileña en Promoción de la Salud; Vol. 26 Núm. 2 (2013); 182-191Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde; v. 26 n. 2 (2013); 182-1911806-1230reponame:Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúdeinstname:Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor)instacron:UFORporenghttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/2902/pdfhttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/2902/pdf_1Siqueira, Danielle Ferreira deMoura, Romero Marinho deLaurentino, Glória Elizabeth CarneiroAraújo, Anderson José deCruz, Simara Lopesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-02-16T11:27:18Zoai:ojs.ojs.unifor.br:article/2902Revistahttps://periodicos.unifor.br/RBPS/oai1806-12301806-1222opendoar:2022-02-16T11:27:18Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde - Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor)false
