As atividades florestais são reconhecidas por expor os trabalhadores à agentes de risco, gerando incapacidades que dificultam o acesso e continuidade de atuação no mercado de trabalho. Nesse sentido, estudou-se com esta pesquisa os diferentes parâmetros registrados no banco de dados do Ministério da Previdência Social referentes às Comunicações de Acidentes de Trabalho – (CATs), com ênfase no setor florestal de Minas Gerais no período entre 2011 e 2017. Objetivou-se avaliar os dados de acidentes de trabalho com o intuito de gerar conhecimento referente aos agentes causadores, como os danos na saúde dos trabalhadores e suas repercussões. Verificou-se que os principais agentes causadores de acidentes foram: manuseio de madeira, condições do terreno, ferramentas com ou sem força motriz e veículos. As lesões foram responsáveis por 93,9% dos registros, dos quais 49,5% ocasionaram fraturas, comprometendo principalmente os membros inferiores e superiores dos trabalhadores. Portanto, as atividades florestais expõem os trabalhadores a riscos que geram como consequência acidentes, resultando muitas vezes em incapacidades no desenvolvimento das atividades laborais requeridas, e assim, dificultando o acesso ao mercado de trabalho. Palavras-chave: segurança no trabalho; trabalho florestal; saúde do trabalhador florestal.   Descriptive study of work accidents involving forest workers at Minas Gerais State   ABSTRACT: Forestry activities are recognized for exposing workers to risk agents, generating disabilities that hinder the access and continuity of work of the people affected in the labor market. In this sense, it was studied with this research the different parameters registered in the database of the Ministry of Social Security referring to the Communication of Accidents at Work - CATs, with emphasis on the forestry sector of Minas Gerais, at the period between 2011 and 2017. The objective was to evaluate the data on accidents at work in order to generate knowledge regarding the causative agents, as the damage to workers' health and their repercussions. It was found that the main causative agents of accidents were: handling of wood, conditions of the ground, tools with or without driving force and vehicles. The injuries were responsible for 93.9% of the records, of which 49.5% caused fractures, mainly affecting the workers' lower and upper limbs. Therefore, forestry activities expose workers to risks that result in accidents, often resulting in disabilities in the development of the required work activities and, thus or hindering their access to the labor market. Keywords: work safety; forestry work; forest workers' health.

Leprosy is potentially debilitating. The present study aims at describing and assessing the occurrence of physical disabilities in cases of leprosy in the population of the Vale do Jequitinhonha/MG, in the period 1998-2006. It is an epidemiological descriptive study and the data were collected from the Leprosy Notification Forms. This information was processed using EPI-INFO and analyzed, based on the indicators recommended by the Ministry of Health and the force of association between variables. Of the 1461 cases notified, 46.2% were diagnosed with some kind of physical disability (12.1% degree II). Of these, 59.1% were male; 96.9% of the people were over 15 years old, and 93.2% were multibacillary (p < 0.001). A hidden prevalence of 433 cases was estimated in the period 2002-2006. The results show that the diagnosis of Hansen's disease in the region is late, revealing the need to intensify prevention and control.

ABSTRACT The main objective of this study was to analyze the contribution of forestry sector for the increase of revenues of Minas Gerais state municipalities during the period 2008-2013, using appropriate statistical analysis. Forestry is an important economic activity of this state, mainly through reforestation of Eucalyptus and Pinus genres. According to the work’s hypotheses, statistical procedures were performed comparing groups of municipalities with 5% and 10% or more of their area destined to forest plantations. The main results showed that: for 134 municipalities with 5% or more of forestry area, a linear relationship was observed between the Production Value of Silviculture and the collection of Tax on Rural Territorial Property (ITR), with the Gross Added Value of Agriculture in the period 2008-2013. Greater participation of forestry revenues on the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of those municipalities was also observed. For 57 municipalities with 10% or more of forestry area, there was an improvement in the Tax and Economic Development Index (IDTE). Therefore, it can be affirmed that silviculture caused positive impacts for taxes collection and revenues related to the productive sector for the municipalities with larger area of forest plantations.

This research explains the mysticism of mappadendang tradition in Allamungeng Patue Village, Bone Regency, which is believed by the local community as a form of shielding from danger and can resist reinforcemen such as Covid-19 outbreak. This research is a descriptive study using qualitative method and an ethnographic approach. This research was carried out with the aim of identifying the mystical space in mappadendang tradition which was held in Allamungeng Patue Village. After conducting the tracing process, the researcher found that mappadendang tradition which was held in Allamungeng Patue Village, Bone Regency in July 2020 was not a tradition of harvest celebration as generally in several villages in Bone Regency, especially Bugis tribe, but mappadendang was held as a form of shielding from all distress including Covid-19 outbreak. This trust was obtained after one of the immigrants who now resides in the village dreamed of meeting an invisible figure (tau panrita) who ordered a party to be held that would bring all the village people because remembering that in the village during Covid-19 happened to almost all the existing areas in Indonesia, the people of Allamungeng Patue Village were spared from the outbreak. Spontaneously, the people of Allamungeng Patue Village worked together to immediately carry out the mappadendang tradition as a form of interpretation of the message carried by the figure.

The Government of Jordan declared that there are more than one million Syrian refugees in Jordan while UNHCR statistics show that the number is about 700,000. Nonetheless, it is still a large problem for Jordan, especially since there is no real solution that seems to be looming on the horizon for the Syrian crisis. Consequently, that means that those refugees’ stay in Jordan is indefinite. This fact requires Jordan to work towards solutions to avoid the warehousing of those refugees in camps and to integrate them in Jordanian community to ease their stay in Jordan. To achieve that integration, Jordan must facilitate the Syrians’ access to the Jordanian labor market so they can achieve self-reliance. In February 2016, donors gathered in London for the ‘Supporting Syria and the Region’ conference, known as the London Conference, to mobilize funding for the needs of the people affected by the Syrian crisis. In that conference, Jordan pledged to facilitate Syrian refugees’ access to the labor market. This paper will study the process of Syrian integration in Jordanian society by discussing the policies and the procedures that Jordan has developed to facilitate the Syrians’ access to the labor market. The event study method combined with interviews and desk research were used to evaluate the new policies and procedures developed to facilitate this access. It was found that Jordan succeeded in creating a legal and procedural environment that facilitates Syrians’ access to formal jobs, and the Syrians went a long way toward integration in Jordan. Nonetheless, they are still not fully integrated.
