title: [Conditions of self-reported health of teachers from a regional university].
abstract: This is a survey of cross-sectional epidemiological design that aims to investigate the conditions of self-reported health of university professors and the interface with their occupation. Data were collected via self applied questionnaires given to 34 teachers from a regional community university and analyzed with the use of descriptive statistics. Low back pain and fatigue were the predominant complaints and exposure to biological hazards are frequent in the occupational activities of the respondents. Student learning represents the greatest satisfaction for these professionals. It is believed that the care and recovery of managers and students in relation to the academic practice of the faculty may contribute to the promotion of health of workers
