dc.description.abstract	In Europe venous insufficiency is a common pathology that affects 50% of women and 30% of men in working age, compromising their life quality, especially in daily tasks. Sedentary job activities may lead to the onset or worsening the disease. Evaluate the relationship between the presence of venous insufficiency and the type of postural position during a sedentary job activity. A cross-sectional observational study was carried out in 76 individuals of both sexes. One group had a sedentary job activity in a seated position (28 individuals) and the other had orthostatic position (46 individuals). The sample was collected within six months. The registry of information on risk factors and venous insufficiency according to the CEAP classification was carried out in a table prepared for this purpose. We obtained a sample of 44 women (58%) and 32 men (42%) with a mean age of 42.26 years + 9.74. According to the CEAP classification, venous insufficiency was present in 61.4% women (p = 0.001) and the orthostatic position presents a higher average order in the classification (p = 0.005). The sedentary job activity in orthostatic position contributes to a greater wear of the muscular pump, more easily conditioning the venous hemodynamic compromise.	pt_PT
