Understanding these influences is essential for effective physical activity promotion strategies tailored to specific groups. The objective of this study was to evaluate the patterns of physical activity and sedentary behavior among workers of the Municipality of Cornélio Procópio-PR and to verify the association between levels of education and perception of health.
