This study introduces a conceptual model for workers' health surveillance, emphasizing an exposure-based, interdisciplinary approach. It aims to improve practices by integrating technological, social, and epidemiological factors for better health outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Occupational Health
  • Epidemiology
  • Public Health Policy

Background:

  • Workers' health surveillance practices often lack theoretical and technical foundations.
  • Empirical development of surveillance methods hinders effectiveness.
  • A need exists for a structured approach to occupational health surveillance.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a conceptual model for workers' health surveillance.
  • To establish surveillance as a central element linking work processes and health.
  • To provide a framework for planning surveillance actions.

Main Methods:

  • An exposure-based epidemiological perspective is adopted.
  • Risk situations and health effects are contextualized spatially and technologically.

  • An interdisciplinary, three-dimensional model integrating technology, social factors, and epidemiology is proposed.
  • Main Results:

    • A conceptual model for workers' health surveillance is presented.
    • The model emphasizes the relationship between work processes and health outcomes.
    • A planning matrix connecting health effects, risks, territory, and activities is developed.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed model offers a structured, interdisciplinary foundation for workers' health surveillance.
    • Integrating spatial, technological, and social contexts enhances surveillance effectiveness.
    • The planning matrix facilitates targeted interventions in occupational health.
