Resumen
Objetivo: Determinar los estilos de vida en trabajadores del
sector informal.
Materiales y Métodos: Estudio transversal realizado en
2101 trabajadores informales de diferentes ciudades y municipios de la región caribe colombiana. Se evaluaron las características sociodemográficas y laborales de los sujetos de
estudio. Se aplicó el cuestionario FANTASTICO para medir
los estilos de vida relacionados con la salud.
Resultados: Los resultados del estudio muestran que la
mayoría de la población corresponde al género masculino.
La media de la edad de los sujetos fue 41,4±12,8 años, con
un rango entre 18 y 90 años. Al analizar el estilo de vida
relacionado con la salud, se observó que los trabajadores
informales tienen niveles bajos de actividad física, patrones
de alimentación inadecuados y bajo control de la salud en
general.
Conclusiones: De los resultados se recomienda fomentar
la formación de los trabajadores informales que le permitan
ampliar sus posibilidades de oferta laborales, así de esta
manera, mejorar sus ingresos económicos y nivel educativo
que es claramente un limitante para su estilo de vida relacionado con la salud.

Results: The results of the study show that the majority of the population corresponds to the male gender. The average age of the subjects was 41,4±12,8 years, with a range between 18 and 90 years. When analyzing the health-related lifestyle, it was observed that informal workers have low levels of physical activity, inadequate eating patterns and health control in general. Conclusions: The results are recommended to promote the training of informal workers that allow them to expand their labor supply possibilities, thus improving their economic income and educational level that is clearly a limitation for their health-related lifestyle.
