abstract="This work used the FPSICO v.1 method of the Spanish National Institute of Safety and Hygiene to determine the possible psychosocial risks of farm workers in Almería-type greenhouses located in south-eastern Spain to propose health-condition improvements. A 75-question survey was used to evaluate seven psychosocial variables: cognitive load, temporal autonomy, job description, supervision-participation, role definition, worker interest, and personal relationships. A total of 548 workers were evaluated. Also, five qualitative characteristics (of workers) were identified: sex, age, greenhouse type, nationality, and crop type. None of the variables were associated with high psychosocial risk. Thus, the psychosocial health risks encountered by Almería-type greenhouse workers are acceptable, although optimisations over the mid and long term are necessary.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
