La finalidad del presente estudio fue conocer la percepción de los docentes de Educación Física de E.S.O. en la provincia de Jaén sobre las cargas físicas presentes en su lugar de trabajo y las soluciones que propondrían para mejorar su situación laboral, su salud y su calidad de vida. Participaron 216 docentes de los que se seleccionó al azar una muestra de 50 profesionales. La recogida de datos se llevó a cabo mediante una encuesta original auto cumplimentada. Los factores de riesgo que más seleccionados fueron los cambios bruscos de temperatura (86%) y el excesivo ruido en las clases (54%). A continuación les dan más importancia al mantenimiento de la postura en bipedestación (32%) y a la manipulación manual de cargas (tracción y empuje de cargas: 24%). Las soluciones que propusieron fueron: mejorar los materiales y las instalaciones (72%) y menos horas de trabajo por jornada laboral (20%). En conclusión, y ateniéndonos a la obligatoriedad que tienen los poderes públicos de velar por la seguridad e higiene en el trabajo, la Administración General del Estado debería tener en cuenta la situación de estos profesionales para de mantener y/o mejorar la seguridad y la salud de sus trabajadores.
