- Abstract
The present study aims to evaluate ergonomic conditions in the school environment and musculoskeletal complaints associated with the postures assumed during work activities. The study was conducted in a childhood education at Florianopolis - Santa Catarina - Brazil. The work was focused on a female teacher - graduated in pedagogy - 47 years old and 18 years of practice in context the work with children. The problems associated with childhood education work relate to furniture and equipment are designed for anthropometric range of children from four to seven years old and affect the correct body position of teacher. Moreover, even if the work is done standing, sitting or crouching, the observed positions do not favor the musculoskeletal structures, because in most cases, positions were found in disagreement with the literature. It is suggested that corrective and preventive actions are implemented in the context of work activity to reduce or minimize complaints of pain/discomfort reported by the teacher.
