SILVA, Ramón Araújo et al. The perception of truck drivers on the use of psychoactive substances at work: an ethnographic study. SMAD, Rev. Eletrônica Saúde Mental Álcool Drog. (Ed. port.) [online]. 2019, vol.15, n.4, pp.1-8. ISSN 1806-6976. https://doi.org/10.11606/issn.1806-6976.smad.2019.150461.
OBJECTIVE: to understand the subjective experience of truck drivers regarding the use of psychoactive substances. METHOD: an ethnographic approach to qualitative research was employed. RESULTS: the discovered elements, such as high levels of substance abuse, corroborate epidemiological research about the theme including, however, subjective feelings and testimonials. CONCLUSIONS: there is a divergence of opinions that weakens the category regarding negotiation for better working conditions, while the use of illicit substances is considered normal and is unquestioned by the subjects.
