Propuesta de un Programa de Cultura Preventiva y Autocuidado, en el Hotel Mirador del Recuerdo S.A.S.
Blanca Soired Niño Jaime; Laura Lorena Lobo Díaz; Diana Derly Bueno Castro
The purpose of this study was to design a Preventive Culture and Self-Care Program for Hotel Mirador del Recuerdo S.A.S., aimed at strengthening healthy lifestyle habits and reducing risk factors among employees. To this end, an organizational diagnosis was conducted using the FANTÁSTICO Test, administered to all 12 employees. This allowed for a comprehensive evaluation of different lifestyle dimensions, such as physical activity, nutrition, stress management, and self-care behaviors. The results showed that the company is generally at a "good" level, with an average score of 77, reflecting the presence of healthy practices among most employees. However, opportunities for improvement were identified in specific areas such as physical activity, nutrition, and some behavioral traits. Similarly, no critical risk levels were recorded, providing a favorable foundation for strengthening preventive measures. Based on these results, the "Vital Balance" program was designed, focused on promoting healthy habits and strengthening the preventive culture, contributing to comprehensive wellbeing, reducing absenteeism and ensuring the long-term smooth operation of the hotel.

Propuesta de mejora empresa de transportes P y P
Mónica Catalina Carreño Díaz, Leidy Katherin Espitia Quiroga, Paula Andrea Ortíz Aponte; Diana Derly Bueno Castro
This degree project aims to improve the management of psychosocial risks in operational workers of the company Coordinadora de Transportes PyP. This study arises after identifying that, although the company complies with the documentation requirements of the Occupational Health and Safety Management System (98.75%), this compliance is mainly focused on regulations rather than on the real well-being of workers. Based on the results of the psychosocial risk assessment applied in 2025, high and very high risk levels were identified in factors such as workload, mental load, lack of training, change management, and stress. For the development of this project, an applied approach was used, based on the review of existing information and the analysis of the obtained results. From this, the intervention program “Ruta al Bienestar” was designed, which includes training, awareness, and well-being activities focused on reducing stress, improving communication, and helping workers adapt to organizational changes. Additionally, the proposal helps to organize the actions that will be implemented in a clear way, making it easier to follow up and monitor them. It also ensures that the activities are not only theoretical, but are actually applied and generate real changes in the daily work of employees.

Luz Adriana Ayala Gomez; Julian Andres Caicedo Castelblanco; Luz Adriana Gaviria Hernandez
This work proposes a recreational program aimed at strengthening the workplace well-being of the staff at the Taller Creative preschool, located in the municipality of Chía, Cundinamarca. The research process began after identifying that the early childhood education work environment carries a high percentage of physical, emotional, and cognitive strain for teachers, which can generate stress and fatigue if there is a lack of care and well-being strategies. Therefore, the implementation of recreational activities is proposed as a tool that promotes health, improves the work environment, and contributes to the consolidation of performance in the personal and professional spheres of the educational staff.
Propuesta de un Programa de Gestión del Riesgo Químico para la Empresa UT Infraestructura Fluvial
Mestizo Caro Michell Yesid; Ramírez Morales Luz Yessenia; Bueno Castro Diana Derly
UT Infraestructura Fluvial is a civil works company whose operations at the Victoria Regia pier, located in Leticia, Amazonas, permanently expose its 25 workers to liquid fuels, welding fumes, anticorrosive paints, solvents, and compressed gases. Based on this context, and considering the background of a chemical-related workplace accident that occurred in 2025, the need for a structured technical intervention to address chemical risk was identified. This intervention was based on a diagnosis whose results revealed critical gaps in environmental monitoring, the hierarchy of controls, and specialized preventive culture. To address these gaps, the Chemical Risk Management Program was developed, structured into five components aligned with the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) cycle, with defined activities, responsibilities, indicators, and goals. As a dissemination tool, a socialization booklet was prepared for all workers, in compliance with Decree 1072 of 2015, Decree 1496 of 2018, and Resolution 0773 of 2021.
Propuesta de gestión de un programa de manejo de la carga física de los trabajadores del tat en Funza, Cundinamarca.
Mendoza, Nily Estefania
This study aims to develop a physical workload management program for workers in the traditional trade channel (TAT) in the municipality of Funza, Cundinamarca, who are exposed to high physical demands derived from manual load handling, prolonged walking, and sustained postures during the workday. These conditions increase the risk of developing musculoskeletal disorders, affecting both workers’ health and their job performance and quality of life. The study was conducted using a quantitative approach with a descriptive scope, applying the ERIN Method (Individual Risk Assessment) to a sample of six workers. The results showed that 100% of the participants present a “very high” level of biomechanical risk, mainly associated with repetitive movements, prolonged standing, constant use of mobile devices, and the limited implementation of active breaks and mechanical aids during the workday. Based on these findings, the program “Ergo Vital TAT” was designed, focusing on the implementation of preventive strategies such as active breaks, training in postural hygiene, proper use of mechanical aids, and promotion of self-care. This program aims to reduce physical workload, prevent injuries, and improve working conditions. In conclusion, the study highlights the need to address biomechanical risks through structured interventions, promoting safer, healthier, and more productive work environments.

Martinez Perez Jennyffer Grace; Castro Bueno Diana Derly
In recent years, health promotion in workplace environments has gained increasing relevance due to the rise in sedentary behavior associated with contemporary work dynamics. Under this scenario, physical activity programs in the workplace have become a key strategy for improving workers’ overall well-being and promoting healthier organizational environments. The objective of this monograph was to analyze global trends in physical activity programs implemented in workplace settings during the period 2021–2026, with the purpose of identifying their main characteristics, approaches, and contributions to workers’ well-being. The study was conducted under a qualitative and descriptive approach, based on the review and analysis of recent scientific literature related to the promotion of physical activity in the workplace. Through the analysis of different international studies, several strategies aimed at promoting active lifestyles within organizations were identified, among which active breaks, corporate wellness programs, digital interventions to promote physical activity, and the redesign of workspaces that facilitate movement during the workday stand out. The results show that these initiatives contribute significantly to reducing sedentary behavior, strengthening workers’ physical and mental well-being, and improving the organizational climate. Likewise, it is recognized that the implementation of physical activity programs in the workplace represents an opportunity to strengthen health promotion policies and prevent diseases associated with sedentary behavior.
Propuesta de intervención desde la Salud Mental Positiva para mitigar el riesgo psicosocial en los trabajadores de Congo Films
Baquero Riveros Wilmer Javier; Castañeda García Laura Daniela
This research was conducted with 81 employees of Congo Films. A test was administered, consisting of questions related to six dimensions of positive mental health, as proposed by Dr. Teresa Llunch. The objective was to provide an alternative tool for measuring mental health or psychosocial risk, distinct from the existing psychosocial risk assessment battery, in order to analyze protective factors and propose an intervention design. The main results showed low scores in the dimensions of interpersonal skills and personal satisfaction, while problem-solving and self-actualization emerged as protective factors. Therefore, a brochure was developed as the final product for Congo Films S.A.S., outlining a series of activities to strengthen protective factors and improve scores associated with poor mental health.
Propuesta de mejora en la gestión de residuos de la empresa Luna Hermanos Ltda de la ciudad de Albania La Guajira 2026
Zabaleta Bolívar Viviana Patricia; Bueno Castro Diana Derly
The proposal to improve and optimize waste management at Luna Hermanos Ltda. aims to enhance environmental performance and the Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OHSMS). The organizational diagnosis revealed weaknesses in waste segregation at the source, labeling, record control, and hazardous waste (RESPEL) management, particularly in the administrative area. Although the company shows operational progress, such as the partial use of color-coded systems and temporary storage, there are still deficiencies in process standardization, documentation control, and staff training. In response, the implementation of a comprehensive waste management program aligned with current regulations is proposed. This program includes improvements in waste classification, proper labeling, hazardous waste control, monitoring through record-keeping, and strengthening environmental awareness. This initiative aims to ensure regulatory compliance, reduce risks, and promote continuous improvement and business sustainability
Propuesta de intervención de un programa de estándares de seguridad en el área de producción de la empresa CONSERVAS DELCASINO S.A.S
Angela María Tirado Osorio; Diego Danilo Robayo Romero; Jaime Iban León Chamorro; Diana Derly Bueno Castro
This paper proposes the design of a Safety Standards Program for the production area of CONSERVAS DELCASINO, aimed at reducing workplace accidents and strengthening the Occupational Health and Safety Management System (SG-SST) by 2026. The initiative arises from a 50% increase in internal accidents between 2024 and 2025, highlighting the need to implement formal operational controls in critical processes such as cooking, packaging, machinery handling, and the use of chemical cleaning substances. The proposal is based on current Colombian regulations, particularly Decree 1072 of 2015 and Resolution 0312 of 2019, as well as international references such as ISO 45001:2018 and GTC 45. Within this framework, standardization is presented as a preventive strategy to reduce operational variability, strengthen safe behaviors, and ensure continuous monitoring of mechanical, thermal, chemical, locative, and electrical risks. Methodologically, the study begins with a structured diagnostic divided into four components: sociodemographic, cognitive-behavioral, operational-organizational, and verification. This instrument, grounded in recognized models, allows the identification of gaps between regulations, worker perception, and actual practices on the production line. Finally, safety standards and Safe Work Procedures (SWP) will be established for critical tasks, following the PDCA cycle. Additionally, an educational booklet will be developed to support program dissemination and facilitate its adoption, promoting a preventive culture and regulatory compliance.
Estrategias de gestión del estrés en docentes de básica primaria en los ultimos 10 años en latinoamérica / Stress Management Strategies in Primary School Teachers over the Last 10 Years in Latin America
Sonia Milena Guerrero Rojas, Sandra Janeth Ruiz Barbosa, Diana Rocío Castro Raba; Diana Derly Bueno Castro
The research describes how chronic stress leads to psychological effects (anxiety, depression, and burnout syndrome), physical symptoms (chronic fatigue and musculoskeletal disorders), and behavioral issues (absenteeism and low job performance). As a key finding, it was determined that the most effective strategies combine psychosocial support, recreational and wellness activities, and cognitive restructuring techniques for emotional regulation. The study concludes that teacher stress is a multifactorial phenomenon that requires a global institutional approach to improve working conditions and guarantee the quality of life of educators in the region.

Aldana Villalobos Heidy Yulenis; Perez Camargo Paula Carolina; Porras Palacios Venny Laura; Diana Derly Bueno Castro
The objective of this study is to address training as a central element in occupational risk management and safe operation practices in the company Montacargas Serviyaz S.A.S., based on the recognition that poorly structured training programs can directly influence the occurrence of incidents and workplace accidents, especially in high-risk activities such as forklift operations. Using a descriptive and documentary approach, a theoretical and regulatory review was conducted, focused on risk management, safety culture, organizational learning, and compliance with the guidelines established by the Occupational Health and Safety Management System (SG-SST). This analysis made it possible to identify the need to strengthen the planning, implementation, and evaluation processes of training within the company, considering international standards such as ISO 45001:2018, as well as current national regulations. As a result, a structured improvement of the training process is proposed, aimed at developing technical, behavioral, and preventive competencies among workers, thereby contributing to the reduction of operational risks and the strengthening of the organizational safety culture. It is concluded that training should not be understood merely as a formal requirement, but as a strategic tool for business sustainability and the protection of workers’ life and health.
Desórdenes musculoesqueléticos en trabajadores de call center una mirada desde la prevalencia y los factores de riesgo. Musculoskeletal disorders in call center workers: a look at prevalence and risk factors.
Durango Petro Jorge Francisco; Díaz Parodi Johanna Lucía; Yesica Yibet Mendoza Parada; Diana Derly Bueno Castro
Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are one of the main occupational health problems in activities that involve prolonged exposure to computer equipment and performing repetitive tasks, specifically in sectors such as call centers, which have shown considerable growth within the outsourced services industry, creating job opportunities, but at the same time generating working conditions associated with ergonomic risks; although this type of work is usually considered low physical risk, remaining in static postures, repetitive movements of hands and wrists, forced positions of the neck and shoulders, and organizational demands, such as high work pace and limited breaks, can favor the appearance of MSDs. therefore, the present monograph aims to determine the prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders and the risk factors associated with their occurrence in call center workers, through the synthesis and chronological organization of the available evidence, seeking an integration of dispersed information in the sector; the results showed that the most common MSDs are cervical pain and low back pain, mainly affecting the neck and back, finding a high prevalence of musculoskeletal symptoms in this population. On the other hand, regarding risk factors, the influence of ergonomic, organizational, and psychosocial conditions was identified, highlighting the multifactorial nature of these disorders in the work environment. Keyword: Musculoskeletal disorders, ergonomics, risk factors, call center, prevalence.

Accidentalidad durante el izaje de cargas en el sector de la construcción. Una mirada mundial de los últimos 10 años Accidents during lifting operations in the construction sector: a global overview of the last 10 years.
Rosas Tovar Maria Fernanda; Diana Derly Bueno Castro
The study analyzes the high rate of accidents in the construction sector, particularly in lifting operations, where the use of equipment, the handling of heavy materials, and the interaction among workers increase risks if not properly managed. Based on a review of scientific literature from the past ten years, it was found that the most common accidents include falling loads, impacts from moving objects, entrapments, and equipment collapse, all resulting from a combination of human, technical, organizational, and environmental factors. These incidents not only cause serious or fatal injuries but also lead to economic losses, project delays, and legal issues. In conclusion, the most effective prevention strategies rely on a comprehensive approach that includes proper equipment maintenance, personnel training, careful planning, constant supervision, and the use of technology, recognizing that safety depends on the integration of all these elements.
Técnicas de relajación para la salud visual en trabajadores del sector de call center bajo la modalidad de teletrabajo en Latinoamérica
Velasco-Casas, Luis Fernando; Gil, Jesús Daniel; Duque-Alvarado, Fabio Nelson; Bueno-Castro, Diana Derly
Visual fatigue constitutes a phenomenon that increasingly affects workers across diverse occupational settings. Although the body of research addressing this issue remains limited, the integrated analysis of environmental, individual, ergonomic, and psychosocial factors provides a comprehensive framework for understanding a problem that must be incorporated into occupational health and safety programs. Prolonged exposure to screens and technological devices places workers at risk of developing a constellation of symptoms that may culminate in Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS). Visual therapy programs have proven to be effective interventions for disorders of the visual accommodation system. The methodology employed in this study was based on a systematic literature review across multiple academic databases, including PubMed, Scielo, and Dialnet, as well as peer-reviewed articles and scientific journals. The inclusion criteria encompassed studies focusing on adult workers who use digital screens, particularly call center employees in Latin America between 2015 and 2025, who exhibited alterations in the visual accommodation system and were diagnosed with accommodation disorders through the CVSS-15 questionnaire or optometric evaluation. Ultimately, visual disorders associated with digital screen use must be diagnosed and treated promptly, employing strategies that ensure favorable long-term outcomes. Scheduled optometric examinations are indispensable for preventing the onset of symptoms related to CVS and other visual system impairments.
Propuesta de intervención Riesgo químico en fumigadores del sector agrícola. El caso de una empresa de Santa Sofía (Boyacá)
Salvaneschi-Ragazzone, Camila; Bueno, Diana Derly
A 2020 OIT study estimated that 27.4% of the global population works in the agricultural sector, which is considered one of the most hazardous industries. Illnesses and accidents resulting from the handling of agrochemicals in agriculture remain among the least addressed issues in rural areas. The workers with the highest exposure to chemical risks are those who mix and apply these products on crops to control pests and diseases. The analysis carried out made it possible to identify that the existing hazards can cause serious health consequences. When assessing the danger of each substance, risks such as infertility, cancer, allergies, and other effects related to inhalation, skin absorption, and cross-contamination were identified. During the document review and direct field observations, significant shortcomings were found, particularly in the proper use of personal protective equipment, the lack of training for handling agrochemicals, and the limited reading of safety data sheets. These documents provide essential information on each product’s risks and the protective measures required to prevent poisoning and other adverse health effects.
Síndrome de Burnout en médicos de Latinoamérica Una mirada de los últimos 10 años
Jorge Elian Agamez Funtes; Luis Carlos Arellano Navarro
Burnout syndrome among Latin American physicians is a structural and growing occupational health problem, worsened by chronic work overload, precarious health systems, and the COVID-19 pandemic. This monograph describes its impact based on scientific production from the last ten years (2016-2026). A qualitative descriptive bibliographic review was conducted in SciELO, Redalyc, Dialnet, Scopus, PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Elsevier databases. After applying inclusion and exclusion criteria, 26 studies with specific data on physicians and residents were analyzed using a documentary review matrix., Results reveal high prevalence of the syndrome. The most frequent symptoms are chronic fatigue (92 % of articles), depression (81 %), and anxiety (77 %). The most affected specialties are emergency medicine, intensive care, general surgery, internal medicine, and medical residents. Brazil leads with 6 studies, followed by Peru and Argentina (3 each), Mexico, Colombia, and Ecuador. Burnout is linked to extended shifts, limited institutional support, and high emotional exposure, resulting in medical errors, absenteeism, staff turnover, and professional migration. It is concluded that burnout is not an individual but a systemic phenomenon. Comprehensive prevention and occupational well-being strategies at institutional and public policy levels are urgently needed to protect physicians’ mental health and strengthen health system sustainability in Latin America
