Resumo: Objective: To apply the method developed by the World Health Organization, called Workload Indicators of Staffing Need for dimensioning the nursing staff for the care of cancer patients in a Chemotherapy outpatient clinic. Method: This is a quantitative, observational, documentary field study with an intentional sample. Prospective data were collected through the work sampling method. Results: Seventeen nurses and 12 nursing technicians participated in the study. A total of 3,727 observations were performed and were obtained the mean times and the relative working time of 23 nurses’ interventions and 18 nursing technicians’ interventions. The interventions corresponded to 88.5% of the relative working time of nurses and 83.9% of nursing technicians. Personal activities accounted for 8.2% of the relative working time of nurses and 7.9% of nursing technicians. The reliability test resulted in 86.3% concordance. Conclusion: The similarity between the staff required according to the method studied and the current staff showed that the Workload Indicators of Staffing Need has great potential and applicability for dimensioning nursing professionals safely.

Método: Trata-se de uma pesquisa de campo observacional e documental, com abordagem quantitativa e amostra intencional. Os dados prospectivos foram coletados por meio da técnica amostragem do trabalho. Resultados: Participaram da pesquisa 17 enfermeiros e 12 técnicos de enfermagem. Foram realizadas 3.727 observações, sendo obtidos tempos médios e ocupação relativa de 23 intervenções de enfermeiros e 18 intervenções de técnicos de enfermagem. As intervenções corresponderam a 88,5% da ocupação relativa dos enfermeiros e 83,9% dos técnicos de enfermagem. A atividade pessoal foi responsável por 8,2% da ocupação relativa dos enfermeiros e 7,9% dos técnicos de enfermagem. O teste de confiabilidade resultou em 86,3% de concordância. Conclusão: A semelhança entre o quadro projetado pelo método estudado e o existente evidenciou que o Workload Indicators of Staffing Need tem grande potencial e aplicabilidade para dimensionar os profissionais de enfermagem com segurança.Objetivo: Aplicar el método elaborado por la Organización Mundial de la Salud, denominado Workload Indicators of Staffing Need, a fin de dimensionar al equipo de enfermería para el cuidado a pacientes oncológicos en Ambulatorio de Quimioterapia.
