Abstract
GUARIN-ARCINIEGAS, Ingrid Yazmin; GOMEZ-ROMERO, Sandra Isabel; URIBE-MONTANA, Sandra Liliana and VERGEL-VILA, Laura Constanza. Occupational risk management in mobile teleworking. Orinoquia [online]. 2021, vol.25, n.1, pp.95-101. Epub Nov 03, 2021. ISSN 0121-3709. https://doi.org/10.22579/20112629.658.
Occupational risk management is conceptualized as the management of Risk Factors associated with work through their identification, analysis, assessment and intervention through actions, activities and programs that allow mitigating and / or controlling risks, contributing to comfortable environments and insurance. However, when talking about mobile teleworking, the current Colombian regulations do not show the way in which risk factors and / or dangers should be identified, nor how to assess the risks themselves or the intervention strategies to avoid the occurrence of work illnesses and / or accidents. In addition, risk management is difficult not only because there are no methodologies for the diversity of conditions and workplaces but also because the existing ones do not contemplate this type of hiring, since the mobile teleworker does not have a fixed place to work. This leads to re-evaluating different strategies that allow identifying hazards, assessing risks and determining controls, within the exercise of implementation of the Management System for Safety and Health at Work in Colombia SG-SST * (Ministry of Labor 2015). Thus, the Research group: Society, Strategy and Security of the Nueva Granada Military University, INV-EES-2605, prepared this article in order to reflect on the importance of the implementation of the SG-SST in the companies that apply the modality of Mobile Teleworking in Colombia. The technique used for the preparation of this article included the field work carried out during the development of the research, which included visits to teleworkers, as a methodological strategy for the identification of hazards, evaluation and assessment of risks and thus establish a diagnosis in Occupational Risks in teleworkers and their companies in the City of Bogotá. Additionally, it covered the systematic search for bibliographic information related to this type of work at the national and international level.
