[Occupational problems secondary to nursing work in Brazil].
This study presents some considerations on the situation of Brazilian nursing workers. It is known that these professionals have an idealized conception of their duty. This fact prevents them from being aware of the many occupational risks, accidents and diseases to which they are exposed. The awareness of these professionals, regarding occupational risks, is very important in order to change this picture and enable nursing workers to claim for better work conditions.
