Abstract

Faced with the rupture of the VALE S.A. tailings dam that hit the city of Brumadinho (MG), the article sought to better understand the organisation of work of military firefighters who participated in the search and rescue operation and the relationship between work and health present in this scenario. This is a qualitative research with a focus on the subjective production of the speeches of seven firefighters who were interviewed individually with a semi-structured script, using as a basis of analysis the ergological perspective and the productions of the psychodynamics of work. The firefighters experienced a scenario with risks of injury, contamination, and even death. In the interviews, they showed that more than twelve hours of work was responsible for sleep problems during and after the performance, as well as the food provided and the lack of time for physical exercise proved to be aggravating factors for their health. Working in the tailing’s mud combined the development of musculoskeletal problems and anxiety, due to the possibility of contamination by metals present in the mud. The work relationships show a high degree of trust and recognition between the firefighters and the affected population, which helped in the motivation and continuation of the operation until the present moment. The work in this operation that gained national prominence was responsible for the feeling of pride and for feeling more capable and prepared to act in other disasters. This research is expected to broaden the discussion about the work-health relationship of military firefighters exposed to disasters, as well as serve as a subsidy to encourage the creation of public policies focused on the health of these workers.
在工艺与泥浆之间:Córrego do feij大坝溃决中消防员工作与健康关系分析- brumadinho /MG
面对巴西淡水河谷公司(VALE S.A.)在布鲁马迪尼奥市(MG)发生的尾矿坝破裂事件,本文试图更好地了解参与搜救行动的军事消防员的工作组织,以及在这种情况下工作与健康之间的关系。这是一项定性研究,重点关注七名消防员的主观演讲,他们分别接受了半结构化脚本的采访,以工效学视角和工作心理动力学的产生作为分析的基础。消防员们经历了一个有受伤、污染甚至死亡风险的场景。在采访中,他们表明,超过12小时的工作是造成表演期间和之后睡眠问题的原因,提供的食物和缺乏体育锻炼的时间也被证明是恶化他们健康的因素。在尾矿的泥浆中工作,由于泥浆中存在的金属污染的可能性,肌肉骨骼问题和焦虑的发展结合起来。工作关系表明消防员和受灾人口之间高度信任和认可,这有助于激励和继续行动,直到现在。在这次行动中获得全国瞩目的工作使我们感到自豪,并使我们感到更有能力和准备在其他灾难中采取行动。预计这项研究将扩大对遭受灾害的军事消防员工作与健康关系的讨论,并作为一种补贴,鼓励制定侧重于这些工人健康的公共政策。
