The scope of this paper was to investigate the relationship between Arterial Hypertension (AH) and the occupational profile of teachers of basic public education and present a theoretical model. A probabilistic sample was adopted by clusters, with AH as the dependent variable. The independent variables were grouped in thematic blocks (Sociodemographic Characteristics, Occupational Profile, Behaviors and Health Outcomes) that composed the theoretical model. The analyses were corrected by the sample design. Hierarchical logistic regression was conducted. The prevalence of AH was 25%, and 58% reported dissatisfaction with the work. There was a higher probability of AH among older teachers (OR = 3.7), without postgraduate qualification (OR = 1.4), who also worked in the private network (OR = 2.6), who had a higher salt intake (OR = 1.7), with a high waist-hip ratio (OR = 1.9) and hypercholesterolemia / hypertriglyceridemia (OR = 1, 5) and a lower chance among females (OR = 0.5), who had other work activity (OR = 0.6) and were dissatisfied with the work (OR = 0.6). Thus, the occupational profile of teachers had an influence on AH. The relationship between work and teacher health demands attention and care, with measures that preserve and promote the health and well-being of teachers.

Adotou-se amostra probabilística por conglomerados. A HA foi a variável dependente. As variáveis independentes foram agrupadas em blocos temáticos (Características Sociodemográficas, Perfil Ocupacional, Comportamentos e Desfechos em Saúde), que compuseram o modelo teórico. As análises foram corrigidas pelo desenho amostrai. Foi conduzida regressão logística hierarquizada. A prevalência de HA foi de 25%, enquanto que 58% apresentaram insatisfação com o trabalho. Houve maior chance de HA entre os docentes mais velhos (OR = 3,7), sem pós-graduação (OR = 1,4), que atuavam também na rede privada (OR = 2,6), que apresentavam maior consumo de sal (OR = 1,7), com sobrepeso (OR = 2,1) / obesidade (OR = 7,2), com relação cintura-quadril elevada (OR = 1,9) e com hipercolesterolemia/hipertrigliceridemia (OR = 1,5) e menor chance entre os do sexo feminino (OR = 0,5), que exerciam outra atividade de trabalho (OR = 0,6) e insatisfeitos com o trabalho (OR = 0,6)
