Preventive behaviors at work play a vital role in protecting workers\u2019 physical, social, and psychological health; however, no validated Brazilian Portuguese instrument is currently available to measure the frequency of these behaviors. The Preventive Behaviors at Work Frequency Scale (\u00c9chelle de Fr\u00e9quence des Comportements Pr\u00e9ventifs au Travail), developed in Canada, evaluates how often workers adopt 6 key preventive behaviors grounded in the model of preventive behaviors at work. A culturally adapted and psychometrically validated version is therefore needed to support occupational health research, surveillance, and evidence-based interventions for Brazilian older workers.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study aims to describe the protocol for the cross-cultural adaptation and psychometric validation of the Brazilian Portuguese version of the Preventive Behaviors at Work Frequency Scale for workers aged 50 years and older.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This methodological study will be conducted based on international guidelines for cross-cultural adaptation and questionnaire validation and will be completed in six steps: (1) forward translation, (2) forward translation synthesis, (3) back translation, (4) harmonization and expert appraisal of relevance, (5) pretesting with the target population, and (6) field-testing and psychometric evaluation.
