abstract: To compare the demand and control over work of physicians and nurses working in pediatric and neonatal critical care units. Cross-sectional study with 37 doctors and 20 nurses. We used the Job Content Questionnarie. Physicians from the ICU Neonatal differ in social support received from the supervisor (p= 0.01) compared to the ICU Pediatric. ICU nurses of the Neonatal present job insecurity (p= 0.05). Physicians and nurses from the ICU Pediatric differ in control over the work, psychological demands of work, physical effort and support of the supervisor (p <0.05). Physicians and nurses from the ICU Neonatal show statistical differences in control over the work, physical effort and support of the supervisor (p<0.05). The work environment in the ICU'S presents high demand and low control over the work.
