Abstract

Objective: To analyze work absences due to mood disorders between 2018 and 2020 in Piauí.

Method: Census study, descriptive-analytical, carried out in Piauí, Brazil, between May and July 2021. Data was collected from the National Social Security Institute's database. Analyzed with descriptive and inferential statistics.

Results: 1,717 leaves were identified, 65.3% were female workers with an average age of 39.78 years, 91% had an income of one to two minimum wages, 42.7% came from other municipalities, and 82.2% worked in the urban area. Among the absences, 52% were due to depressive episodes, and 84.2% of the workers were granted social security sickness benefits. There was a statistical association between the municipality of origin, the zone of labor activities, and the average duration of work leave.

Conclusion: The study contributed to the identification of absences and the provision of data that collaborate in the formulation of intervention strategies and the worker's best working conditions and mental health.
