description Obesity is present in large proportions in populations with diverse cultural and socioeconomic development standards, being a important public health problem. The body mass index (BMI) expressed by the ratio between the weight (kg) and height (meters) squared created by Quételet (Anjos, 1992), is one of the most used criteria currently to calculate the prevalence of obesity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the nutritional status of the employees who use the UAN outsourced of a plastics industry located in Joinville-SC. Was held the descriptive transversal type study with a sample of n = 138. For the study, data was collected from current weight and body size for the calculation of BMI and applied questionnaire for the evaluation of eating habits. At the end of the data collection was given to newsletter about healthy eating. It was found that 46.4% of the women and 39% of men are eutrophic, and that half of men fall under overweight situation (50%). Only 3.36% of people fit in the situation below the weight. Before the results, it is necessary to devote more attention to nutritional care for all who benefit from the UAN, once a significant amount is outside the standards for healthy weight, which can contribute to situations of risk to health.
