Abstract
Quality of life at work has been a goal much wanted by professionals and companies and has been much discussed in recent decades, especially in some activities or functions with greater risks, as the case of doctors who work in the Emergency Room (ER) as orthopedists. Despite the numerous studies on the subject, it is still necessary to deepen knowledge, as the medicine practiced in ER still represents a risk to professional's health, as it is a type of work developed in highly stressful circumstances. In this way, it becomes easy to understand the problem of the medical profession, which is said to be of consented submission, which is faced with difficult and stressful situations. The main objective of this research is to discuss certain stressful situations in PS that influence the quality of life of the orthopedic doctor. Its development was done through a bibliographic research, with a qualitative approach. And the main result is that the work in ER is highly stressful, compromising the quality of life of the orthopedist who works there.
