SORIANO-TARIN, G et al. Evaluation of estimated supervening disability and the costs of not promoting health in a working population: PoRT-9LSQ methodology. Rev Asoc Esp Espec Med Trab [online]. 2022, vol.31, n.3, pp.260-274.  Epub 12-Dez-2022. ISSN 3020-1160.

The increase in life expectancy is a public health success. This increase has not implied a similar increase in disability-free life expectancy (EVLD). Spain in 2018 the EVLD at birth is 68.0 years. More than 50% of workers in the EU leave work prematurely due to chronicity, limitations in carrying out activities or disabilities, due to the prevalence of risk factors such as smoking, sedentary lifestyle, high blood pressure, diabetes, dyslipidemia and overweight/obesity. Calculating the years of estimated supervening disability (ADSE) and its estimated cost is an excellent indicator of the impact of the effectiveness of health promotion. The objective is to use its own methodology (Population Risk Tool Nine Lifestyle Questionnaire-PoRT-9LSQ), which includes data on perceived/compared health, physical activity, diet, smoking, blood pressure, hypercholesterolemia, diabetes and BMI. The data corresponds to a sample of 1,985 workers from 45 companies from different sectors collected during medical examinations in 2021. A descriptive numerical and graphic analysis of the variables involved in the study (dependent variable ADSE and independent variables) will be carried out, as well as analysis of variance models (ANOVA). As preliminary results, a total of 4,475 ADSE equivalent to 256,226 stands out. €140, that is, 2.25 ADSE for each worker and a cost of €129,081. The usefulness and applicability of a tool to quantify the impact of not promoting health constitutes an innovative indicator to justify the implementation of a healthy business model.
