A systematic review about work-related problems incurred by agricultural pilots

This study assesses qualitative information from primary studies on the work-related problems incurred by agricultural pilots. The aim is to shed light on what is known about these problems, which were resolved and what are the research gaps that can drive future studies to minimize accident events. In order to achieve it, a systematic review was conducted, using computerized search engines to gather primary studies on this topic, and extract qualitative information. Two different approaches were identified, those reporting data on a single work-related problem and those reporting data on existing problems in 'total work-environment', where the problems are considered as small parts of a whole. There remains a clear need for assisting these professionals, especially concerning the problems poorly addressed in the primary studies, such as organizational, informational and psychosocial factors as well as the factors that have not yet been discussed, such as education and training
