Resumo: | Introduction: The production and handling of foods are permanent issues to the Public Health due to the several safety risks they pose to human health. Therefore, it is important to gather information on food sanitary surveillance professionals. Objective: Characterize the profile and work routine of sanitary surveillance officers who work with food production and handling in Curitiba, Parana, Brazil. Method: The sample comprised 43 individuals, who completed a form containing questions on socio-demographical profile, education level and work routine. Results: Most professionals were women aged 31 to 50 years, with more than 5 years of experience in the area, who hold a graduate degree and have basic knowledge in foreign languages and IT. Different professional categories that composed the sample groups presented different income and uneven geographical distribution. In addition, the groups were characterized by frequent training, the use of forms during the inspections and other sanitary surveillance duties and report writing skills. However, they did not plan their duties ahead and were not aware of the municipality’s health targets. They reported to be exposed to some kind of risk during their work agenda and to have inadequate working conditions. On the other hand, they acknowledge the value of their role and were satisfied with it. Conclusions: The interviewed officers are qualified professionals who are familiarized and content with their duties. Nevertheless, there are some hurdles to be overcome related to the valorization of their role in the Public Health. |

Objetivo: Caracterizar o perfil e os aspectos do processo de trabalho dos profissionais da Vigilância Sanitária que atuam na área de alimentos de Curitiba, Paraná, Brasil. Método: A amostra foi composta por 43 profissionais, que responderam a um formulário, com questões fechadas sobre perfil sociodemográfico, educacional e processo de trabalho. Resultados: A maioria dos profissionais eram mulheres, com idade entre 31 e 50 anos, tempo de serviço na Vigilância Sanitária maior que 5 anos, com curso superior e conhecimentos básicos de línguas estrangeiras e de informática. As diferentes categorias profissionais que compunham as equipes apresentaram disparidade salarial e uma distribuição territorial desigual. Além disso, capacitação frequente, uso de roteiros durante as inspeções e facilidade para desenvolver rotinas e relatórios diários. No entanto, não planejavam as ações de vigilância sanitária no nível local e desconheciam as metas de saúde do município. Consideraram que estão expostos a algum risco no exercício do seu trabalho e alegaram não possuir adequadas condições de trabalho. Por outro lado, julgaram seu trabalho importante e que estão satisfeitos com ele. Conclusões: Os profissionais são qualificados, estão familiarizados com o serviço realizado e satisfeitos. Contudo, existem dificuldades a serem superadas, no sentido de fortalecer o seu trabalho, para que sejam reconhecidos efetivamente como agentes transformadores da saúde pública.Instituto Nacional de Controle de Qualidade em Saúde2019-02-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion"Peer-reviewed article""Artículo revisado por pares""Artigo avaliado pelos pares"application/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebate/article/view/114410.22239/2317-269X.01144Health Surveillance under Debate: Society, Science & Technology ; Vol. 7 No. 1 (2019): February; 23-32Vigilancia en Salud en Debate: Sociedad, Ciencia y Tecnología; Vol. 7 Núm. 1 (2019): Febrero; 23-32Vigil Sanit Debate, Rio de Janeiro; v. 7 n. 1 (2019): Fevereiro; 23-322317-269Xreponame:Vigilância Sanitária em Debateinstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZporenghttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebate/article/view/1144/982https://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebate/article/view/1144/1079Copyright (c) 2019 Vigilância Sanitária em Debate: Sociedade, Ciência & Tecnologia (Health Surveillance under Debate: Society, Science & Technology) – Visa em Debatehttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessOlmedo, Patrícia VitórioFiori, Lize StangarlinMedeiros, Caroline OpolskiFerreira, Sila Mary Rodrigues2023-06-27T16:49:42Zoai:ojs.visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br:article/1144Revistahttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebatePUBhttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebate/oaiincqs.visaemdebate@fiocruz.br || gisele.neves@fiocruz.br2317-269X2317-269Xopendoar:2023-06-27T16:49:42Vigilância Sanitária em Debate - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)false |
