The Work Related Osteomuscular Disorder (WROD) constitutes a serious public health problem with very important social and economical consequences. Socio-cultural factors should also be considered in a multidisciplinary way. Associating both quantitative and qualitative approaches, aiming at the investigation of possible components of this disease that are subject of intervention, such as Assertiveness, and the socio-cultural factors involved, nine subjects were interviewed, three groups of women (the most undertaken gender) between 25 and 45 years (the most incident range). These groups answered, then, a questionnaire on Assertiveness (adaptation of the Rathus Scale based on the study by Pascoli and Gouveia of 1991) and another study on Quality of Life (SF 36). The results obtained in the Questionnaire of Assertiveness do not demonstrate significant differences among the three groups. Nevertheless, they occurred in an unequivocal way in the items related to physical aspects of questionnaire SF 36, which reinforces the participation and prevalence of biological components strongly influenced by socio-cultural matters in this disorder. We come to the conclusion that, although it cannot prevent WROD, interventions in the physical and organizational aspects of work are certainly necessary, since, without them, the musculoskeletal problems may be caused or aggravated (Maeno and col, 2001). However, this should always occur in a multidisciplinary approach. This study also proves the need to incorporate new models of research, as well as a special look towards the working woman
