Abstract: Antecedentes: En años recientes, la sociedad ha adoptado una sobrevaloración de la apariencia física, lo cual afecta a la comunidad obesa en distintos ámbitos, destacándose el laboral, en el cual son valorados y tratados de forma distinta en base al estigma impuesto. Objetivo: Describir las experiencias de estigma por obesidad en personas que se autoperciben como obesas y trabajan. Método: Se utilizó una metodología cualitativa y se adoptó un enfoque fenomenológico-hermenéutico. La técnica empleada para la recolección de información fue la entrevista semi estructurada. Fueron 11 participantes entre hombres y mujeres, cuyas edades oscilan entre los 20 y 44 años. Asimismo, para analizar los datos se usó el análisis temático. Resultados: Los participantes experimentaron estigma por obesidad en sus diversos componentes: cognitivo, emocional y conductual, los cuales han estado presentes tanto en su vida cotidiana, como en el proceso de selección, en el clima laboral y en la ergonomía de los ambientes laborales. Conclusiones: La mayoría de experiencias laborales, mostraban un trato diferenciado al postular a un trabajo, un clima laboral incómodo (comentarios y trato inapropiado por parte de colaboradores) y una falta de consideración por adaptar espacios de trabajo para personas de mayor contextura corporal.
Background: In recent years, the overvaluation of physical appearance has affected society's perception in various aspects, valuing qualities and capabilities based on beauty standards. Objective: Describe the experiences of obesity stigma in people who perceive themselves as obese and work. Method: A qualitative methodology was used and a phenomenological-hermeneutic approach was adopted. The techniques applied for the collection of information were the sociodemographic card and the semi-structured interview. The participants were 11 men and women, whose ages ranged from 20 to 44 years. Likewise, to analyze the data, the thematic analysis was used. Results: The participants experienced obesity stigma in its various components: cognitive, emotional and behavioral, which have been present in their daily lives, as well as in the selection process, in the work climate and in the ergonomics of the work environments. Conclusions: The majority of work experiences showed differentiated treatment when applying for a job, an uncomfortable work environment (inappropriate comments and treatment by collaborators) and a lack of consideration for adapting work spaces for people with a larger body build.
