GARZON DUQUE, María Osley et al. Sociodemographic, occupational and environmental conditions associated with the presence of headache in informal workers (street vendors), Medellin 2016. Rev Asoc Esp Espec Med Trab [online]. 2018, vol.27, n.4, pp.220-231. ISSN 3020-1160.

Sociodemographic, occupational and environmental factors associated with headache were explored in 686 workers of the informal sector of the economy in the center of Medellin, Colombia, through a transversal descriptive study with analytical intention, primary sources of information, and application of assisted survey that included the headache self-report. The prevalence of headache was 47,8%. The biological condition was associated with a higher prevalence of headache, as well as the feeling of exaggerated heat or cold in the workplace and considering that air pollution affected their work as informal workers. Being a woman is a condition that explains the higher prevalence of headache. The socio-demographic, occupational and environmental conditions can contribute to a greater labor vulnerability of this working population, which can affect their health status, being the headache one of the ailments that must be addressed to improve their living and working conditions.

Palavras-chave : headache; informal work; occupational; environment; vulnerable population.
