| Abstract (English): | Introduction: Adequate nutrition is part of a healthy lifestyle in work environments. Objectives: To characterize the dietary patterns of workers of a public university in Colombia and to determine the factors associated with it. Materials and methods: Cross-sectional study conducted in 126 workers aged 18 to 64 years of age. Information was collected between August 2017 and June 2018 using a questionnaire on food consumption frequency in the last month. Bivariate analyses were performed to determine the association between the recommended consumption pattern for each food group and sociodemographic and occupational variables using the Pearson's chi-square or the Fisher's exact test and calculating prevalence ratios (PR) with their respective 95% confidence intervals (95%CI). A significance level of p<0.05 was considered. Results: Of the 126 participants, 84.13%, 56.35%, 69.05%, 32.54%, 13.49%, and 84.13% complied with the recommendations for daily consumption of fruits, vegetables, milk and dairy products, eggs, dried fruit, and water, respectively, while 9.52% and 40.48% complied with the recommendations for weekly consumption of offal and legumes. Being 47 years old or younger was associated with a higher probability of consumption of fast foods (PR=2.24; p=0.00), soft drinks (PR=2.63; p=0.00), cold meats (PR=1.34; p=0.04), and artificial juices (PR=2.73; p=0. 00); having a high school education level increased the probability of failing to eat or drink milk and dairy products on a daily basis (PR=1.75; p=0.033); and having a low socioeconomic status led to a higher probability of not eating fruits daily (PR=3.6; p=0.00). In addition, being a woman increased the probability of eating vegetables (PR=0.66; p=0.04) and dried fruit (PR=0.87; p=0.04) and reduced the risk of drinking soft drinks (PR=0.59; p=0.03). Conclusion: The dietary consumption patterns identified here were better compared to what has been reported in similar studies. Likewise, interventions should focus on workers with one or several of the following characteristics: men, age ≤47 years of age, complete secondary education as the highest educational level, and low socioeconomic status.

La información se recolectó entre agosto de 2017 y junio de 2018 mediante un cuestionario de frecuencia de consumo de alimentos en el último mes. Se realizaron análisis bivariados para determinar la asociación entre el patrón de consumo recomendado para cada grupo de alimentos y las variables sociodemográficas y ocupacionales usando las pruebas chi-cuadrado de Pearson o exacta de Fisher y calculando razones de prevalencia (RP) con sus respectivos intervalos de confianza del 95% (IC95%); se consideró un nivel de significancia de p<0.05. Resultados. De los 126 participantes, 84.13%, 56.35%, 69.05%, 32.54%, 13.49% y 84.13% cumplían con las recomendaciones de consumo diario de frutas, verduras, leche y derivados, huevos, frutos secos y agua, respectivamente, y 9.52% y 40.48%, con las recomendaciones de consumo semanal de vísceras y leguminosas. Tener 47 años o menos se asoció con una mayor probabilidad de consumo de comidas rápidas (RP=2.24; p=0.00), gaseosas (RP=2.63; p=0.00), embutidos (RP=1.34; p=0.04) y jugos artificiales (RP=2.73; p=0.00); tener un nivel educativo de bachillerato, con una mayor probabilidad de no consumir leche y derivados diariamente (RP=1.75; p=0.033), y tener un bajo nivel socioeconómico, con una mayor probabilidad de no consumir frutas diariamente (RP=3.6; p=0.00). Además, ser mujer incrementó la probabilidad de consumir verduras (RP=0.66; p=0.04) y frutos secos (RP=0.87; p=0.04), y disminuyó el riesgo de consumo de gaseosas (RP=0.59; p=0.03). Conclusión. Los patrones de consumo alimentario aquí identificados fueron mejores en comparación con lo reportado en estudios similares. Asimismo, las intervenciones se deben enfocar en los trabajadores con una o varias de las siguientes características: hombres, ≤47 años, secundaria completa como máximo nivel educativo y nivel socioeconómico bajo.
