Absenteeism and sick leave are often reported in obese workers. To evaluate disability work related we assess 180 overweight-obese subjects [BMI 34,6+6,4, range 26,0-59,0) with TSD-OC questionnaire divided into 7 items (pain; stiffness; ADL; housework; IADL; occupational activities; social life) with a total of 36 visual analogue scales. Among the job categories, health-care workers showed the highest TSD-OC total score (26,9+22,5%, ANOVA p<0,05) and BMI (BMI 37,7+6,9 kg/m2). Among the items, pain was statistically significant in health-care workers (16,1+13,2%), in Services (16,3+14,3%), in Education (15,1+11,4%) and in Administration (13,3+11,0%) (p<0,05). “Occupational activities” item was statistically significant in health-care (11,6+10,6%, p<0,05).

Abstract
Absenteeism and sick leave are often reported in obese workers. To evaluate disability work related we assess 180 overweight-obese subjects [BMI 34,6+6,4, range 26,0-59,0) with TSD-OC questionnaire divided into 7 items (pain; stiffness; ADL; housework; IADL; occupational activities; social life) with a total of 36 visual analogue scales. Among the job categories, health-care workers showed the highest TSD-OC total score (26,9+22,5%, ANOVA p<0,05) and BMI (BMI 37,7+6,9 kg/m2). Among the items, pain was statistically significant in health-care workers (16,1+13,2%), in Services (16,3+14,3%), in Education (15,1+11,4%) and in Administration (13,3+11,0%) (p<0,05). “Occupational activities” item was statistically significant in health-care (11,6+10,6%, p<0,05).
