Dados do Ministério da Saúde (BRASIL, 2001) revelam índices crescentes de doenças ocupacionais em todos os segmentos profissionais. No setor da saúde, o profissional envolvido com o cuidado humano, também tem apresentado altos índices de doenças decorrentes do exercício profissional. Esta pesquisa buscou investigar as condições de trabalho de terapeutas ocupacionais que atuam junto a portadores de disfunções físicas visando identificar fatores de risco no trabalho e possíveis impactos na saúde dos mesmos, bem como propor medidas de prevenção e melhoria das situações de trabalho e consequentemente na assistência aos pacientes. A amostra foi composta por 10 terapeutas ocupacionais de Bauru e região. Os dados foram coletados a partir de um roteiro de entrevista estruturado e após a coleta transcritos integralmente, categorizados e organizados em figuras e tabelas. Foi possível concluir que as condições de trabalho oferecidas podem conduzir ao processo de adoecimento dos terapeutas ocupacionais. As atividades são realizadas predominantemente na postura em pé e sentada, com adoção de posturas inadequadas da coluna associado ao uso de força durante manuseio de pacientes; baixo índice de adesão às atividades de condicionamento físico, realizam pausas durante o trabalho e referem queixas quanto aos ambientes de trabalho e insuficiência de materiais e equipamentos.
