Area of Science:

Occupational Health
Public Health Policy
Human Resources Management

Background:

The Integrated Subsystem for Attention to the Health of Public Servants (SIASS) was established in 2009 to integrate health, safety, and social assistance for federal public servants.
Public servant health and well-being are critical for institutional productivity and employee satisfaction.
The Federal University of Technology-Paraná (UTFPR) is a key institution where these policies are implemented.

Purpose of the Study:

To investigate the promotion and management of health and well-being for public servants at UTFPR.
To identify the challenges and successes in the implementation of the SIASS initiative within the UTFPR context.
To provide recommendations for improving occupational health management strategies.

Main Methods:

Qualitative research methodology.
Analysis of institutional documents related to health and well-being policies.
Semi-structured interviews with managers involved in SIASS implementation at UTFPR.

Main Results:

UTFPR faces significant challenges including resource limitations and reliance on procurement.
The current approach to occupational health is largely reactive, not preventive.
Structural diversity across campuses and lack of systematic evaluation hinder policy effectiveness.

Conclusions:

UTFPR needs to transition towards a more integrated, data-driven, and proactive occupational health management system.
Strengthening interinstitutional partnerships and optimizing resource allocation are crucial.
Developing continuous evaluation systems is essential for a supportive work environment.
