Abstract

Background: Presenteeism refers to the presence of a worker at work with reduced performance due to illness, and it is a common public health problem. Exposure to noise during production processes brings risk to workers' health.

Objective: To analyze the health profile of workers in the automotive industry and identify the association between noise perception and presenteeism among workers in the Brazilian automotive industry.

Design and setting: This was a cross-sectional study utilizing a case study design analyzing the automotive industry in the interior of São Paulo state, Brazil.

Methods: This study included 306 workers using the Presenteeism Work Limitations Questionnaire protocol. Multiple logistic regression was used for data analysis.

Results: Male workers with reports of headache, tension, and limited well-being at work, having perceived that noise exposure interferes with productivity, showed a positive association with the occurrence of presenteeism. Physical demand had the highest score in terms of interfering with the presenteeism index.

Conclusion: Workers' perceptions of noise were associated with presenteeism.

出勤与工作噪音感知:一项使用关联分析的横断面研究。

背景:出勤主义指的是员工因生病而导致工作表现下降，这是一个常见的公共卫生问题。在生产过程中接触噪音对工人的健康造成危险。目的:分析汽车工业工人的健康状况，并确定噪音感知与巴西汽车工业工人出勤之间的关系。设计和环境:这是一项横断面研究，利用案例研究设计分析巴西圣保罗州内陆的汽车工业。方法:采用出勤制工作限制问卷对306名员工进行调查。采用多元逻辑回归进行数据分析。结果:在工作中有头痛、紧张和有限幸福感的男性员工，已经意识到噪音暴露会干扰工作效率，与出勤率的发生呈正相关。实物需求在干扰出勤指数方面得分最高。结论:工人对噪音的感知与出勤有关。
