Method: conducted by means of a self-administered questionnaire with 64 subjects, consisting of two sections: one related to sociodemographic and work data and the other with questions about occupational risks. Results: most of the participants are female, married, with complete high school, took a qualification course, live in the micro area that works and work 40 hours a week. Five variables were listed as occupational risks, namely: contact with infectious people, physical aggression, emotional exhaustion, interpersonal problems and attacks by animals. Conclusion: it is imperative that such a professional is recognized for his potential. Furthermore, that he can have his demands met and understood, especially with regard to coping with adversity at work, which makes him so susceptible to illness, as evidenced in this research.
