Resumen

Este estudio toma como referencia el modelo Demandas-Control-Apoyo y analiza el rol del control y del apoyo social entre algunas demandas laborales y el malestar físico en una muestra de 285 trabajadores de la construcción. En general, se observa que las demandas laborales, la exposición a condiciones nocivas, el control del trabajo y el apoyo social se asocian con el malestar físico. También se comprueban los efectos moduladores del control y del apoyo. El control modula los efectos negativos de las demandas. Además, el apoyo amortigua el estrés derivado de la exposición a condiciones nocivas. Se encuentra una interacción triple pero el incremento de varianza explicada no es signifi cativo, por tanto, no se encuentra evidencia del modelo Demandas-Control-Apoyo. El artículo fi naliza planteando las limitaciones del estudio y sus implicaciones prácticas.
