0136/2025 - PERDA DE PRODUTIVIDADE POR ACIDENTE DE TRÂNSITO RELACIONADOS AO TRABALHO NO BRASIL, 2009 – 2018 LOSS OF PRODUCTIVITY DUE TO WORK-RELATED TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS IN BRAZIL, 2009 – 2018
Introdução: Acidentes de trânsito frequentemente resultam em diversas consequências negativas, incluindo a perda de produtividade, especialmente quando relacionados ao ambiente de trabalho. Objetivos: Estimar a prevalência e avaliar os fatores associados à perda de produtividade em trabalhadores que desenvolvem suas atividades no trânsito lesionados por acidentes de trânsito Método: Realizou-se um estudo epidemiológico transversal analisando dados de acidentes de trânsito relacionados ao trabalho. Foram utilizados modelos de regressão logística multinível para análise dos fatores associados à perda de produtividade. Resultados: A prevalência geral de perda de produtividade foi de 81,04%. Observou-se associação significativa entre trabalhar no trânsito e perda de produtividade no estrato ambulatorial. Sexo feminino (RP = 1,13; IC95% = 1,03-1,24), idade inferior a 30 anos (RP = 1,04; IC95% = 1,02-1,07), raça branca (RP = 1,05; IC95% = 1,01-1,10), outras raças (RP = 1,27; IC95% = 1,05-1,52), ensino fundamental (RP = 1,08; IC95% = 1,04-1,11), residência em zona urbana (RP = 1,03; IC95% = 1,01-1,06), e ser motociclista (RP = 1,03; IC95% = 1,01-1,05) foram identificados como fatores de risco para perda de produtividade em trabalhadores do trânsito. Conclusão: Fatores sociodemográficos, ocupacionais e características do acidente estão associados à perda de produtividade em trabalhadores do trânsito. Variáveis contextuais influenciam as medidas de associação, destacando a gravidade dos acidentes de trabalho e de trânsito como problemas significativos de saúde pública. A compreensão desses fatores é crucial para desenvolver estratégias eficazes de prevenção e intervenção.

Abstract:
Introduction: Traffic accidents often lead to a range of negative consequences, including productivity loss, especially when they are work-related. Objective: To estimate the prevalence and assess the factors associated with productivity loss among workers injured in traffic accidents while performing work-related activities. Method: A cross-sectional epidemiological study was conducted using data on work-related traffic accidents. Multilevel logistic regression models were applied to analyze factors associated with productivity loss. Results: The overall prevalence of productivity loss was 81.04%. A significant association was observed between working in traffic and productivity loss in the outpatient care stratum. Female sex (PR = 1.13; 95% CI = 1.03–1.24), age under 30 years (PR = 1.04; 95% CI = 1.02–1.07), white race (PR = 1.05; 95% CI = 1.01–1.10), other races (PR = 1.27; 95% CI = 1.05–1.52), elementary education (PR = 1.08; 95% CI = 1.04–1.11), urban residence (PR = 1.03; 95% CI = 1.01–1.06), and being a motorcyclist (PR = 1.03; 95% CI = 1.01–1.05) were identified as risk factors for productivity loss among traffic-exposed workers. Conclusion: Sociodemographic and occupational factors, as well as accident-related characteristics, are associated with productivity loss among workers in traffic settings. Contextual variables influence the strength of these associations, highlighting the severity of occupational and traffic accidents as major public health issues. Understanding these factors is essential for the development of effective prevention and intervention strategies.
