Justification and Objective: multimorbidity can generate disabilities, when associated with work, it affects the reduction of participation in the workforce, job turnover and early retirement. Thus, the objective was to estimate the prevalence and identify factors associated with multimorbidity in higher education institution workers. Method: this is a cross-sectional, quantitative study carried out with workers from a higher education institution (n=629) in the city of Ponta Grossa, PR, Brazil. For data collection, questionnaires with instruments from the Ministry of Health were used. The dependent variable referred to the presence of multimorbidity, and the independent variable referred to sociodemographic and work characteristics, use of health services, self-perceived health, presence of symptoms, lifestyle and eating habits. Chi-square test and logistic regression were performed. Results: the prevalence of multimorbidity was 53%, and it was associated with age (OR=2.99), overweight (OR=1.77), pain (OR=4.54), self-rated general health (OR=2 .08) and self-rated oral health (OR=2.30) (p<0.05). Individuals with multimorbidity seek more follow-up by a Basic Health Unit (OR=0.54) and perform routine medical consultations more frequently (OR=0.83) (p<0.05). Conclusion: a high prevalence of multimorbidity was observed in the assessed workers, with a statistical association with biological factors, lifestyle, self-perceived health and access to health services. In this way, it is possible to outline strategies aimed at reestablishing workers’ health, improving their quality of life.
