Resumo: | This text discusses challenges in the development and implementation of response plans against COVID-19. Based on recommendations from the WHO, which emphasizes three groups of objectives to be pursued in these plans, the text advocates the inclusion of the theme of health protection for healthcare workers within the scope of its third objective: “Minimizing the impact of the epidemic on health systems [ ...]”. The highlighting of the use of PPE (PPE), social etiquette and hygiene measures is discussed as potentially minimizers of the importance of administrative and engineering control measures for disease prevention. Emphasis is given to the necessity for training that prepares workers to recognize risky situations associated with the difficulties of new activities arising in the pandemic with an emphasis on new interactions between colleagues, between workers and new instruments and / or with new aspects of contexts. The costs to be paid in the form of impacts on workers' health tend to increase in contexts of degradation of workplace situations associated with rapid evolution of the disease. Two of the challenges of response programs are to recognize and respond quickly to changes that create new risks. |

Partindo de recomendações da OMS que enfatiza três grupos de objetivos a serem buscados nesses planos defende a inclusão do tema da proteção à saúde do trabalhadores da saúde no âmbito de seu terceiro objetivo: “Minimizar o impacto da epidemia sobre sistemas de saúde [...]”. A ênfase dada ao uso de EPI, medidas de etiqueta social e higiene é discutida como potencialmente minimizadora da importância de medidas de controle de engenharia e de controles administrativos para a prevenção da doença. Destaque é dado à necessidade de treinamentos que formem trabalhadores para o reconhecimento de situações de risco associadas às dificuldades de novas atividades surgidas na pandemia com ênfase em novas interações entre colegas, entre trabalhadores e novos instrumentos e ou com novos aspectos dos contextos. Os custos a serem pagos na forma de impactos na saúde dos trabalhadores tendem a crescer em contextos de degradação de situações de trabalho associados à rápida evolução da doença. Um dos desafios dos programas de resposta é o de reconhecer e responder com rapidez às mudanças que criam novos riscos.SciELO PreprintsSciELO PreprintsSciELO Preprints2020-04-22info:eu-repo/semantics/preprintinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/preprint/view/14010.1590/SciELOPreprints.140porhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/article/view/140/164Copyright (c) 2020 Ildeberto M Almeidahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAlmeida, Ildeberto Mreponame:SciELO Preprintsinstname:SciELOinstacron:SCI2020-04-22T17:04:33Zoai:ops.preprints.scielo.org:preprint/140Servidor de preprintshttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scieloONGhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/oaiscielo.submission@scielo.orgopendoar:2020-04-22T17:04:33SciELO Preprints - SciELOfalse |
