Method: Cross-sectional study, developed with 88 professionals, who answered a sociodemographic questionnaire and the Safety Attitudes Questionnaire - Short form 2006, validated for Portuguese. Data collection took place between November 2018 and January 2019. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used, considering a significant p-value equal to or less than 0.05. The cutoff point for a positive assessment was ≥75 points. Results: The means of the domains ranged from 69.83 for the perception of the Management-Secretary of Health to 87.55 for Job Satisfaction.
